Initial woodwork, side panels an T-Molding

When doing my centipede cabined I had only a few disappointments, one being the T-Molding which was unbelievable stiff making it impossible to work with properly. I also found out that it is very difficult to make the slot into the wood ( I used MDF at the time .... ) for the T-Molding.

This time I wanted to avoid this. I bought 20mm wide T-Molding which I found immediately to be much better than the 16mm one I bought at a UK Arcade shop. Since I did not want to have the hassle of making the slot for the "T", I bought 8mm wood (no MDF) and 3mm wood for the inner layer. Using 2 pieces of 8mm and the slightly smaller 3mm in between gives me around 19 mm  -  Perfect for the T-Molding.

After sawing the 4 pieces of 8 mm wood (all in once "shot" to avoid differences), I did the 3mm pieces and clued them together. 

I could not await to start the T-Molding work even though it might be better to put on the sideart first and than to it. However, I started and found out that using clue and strong tape for fixing the already accomplished work (especially in the corners ) does the job very, very well. To bring on the tape I hold it in both hands, start on the T-Molding itself and than hold it very strong on both sides before attaching to the wood. This way, I finished the T-Molding for both sides in less than 1 hour.
