I remember being very impressed with your Magneto build. Just came across this one now.
Awesome job. Clean from start to finish.
edekoning:
Thanks! Doing this for the third time now, means I am a lot more confident. I also learned to take it slow(er), and with better tools am able to be more precise with less hassle.
Billy_Goatfeet:
Great job Edekoning, the wood work on this was top notch!!

Stumbled on your build browsing through the forum. Awesome job it looks amazing!
I have a question related to the wood joinery, I'm just getting started with wood working.
I always thought the purpose of the batons was to add more support between the two pieces of wood the baton was adjacent to.
I see that you have both pocket hole screws and batons (like in the pic below). Is there a particular reason to use both?
edekoning:
So I did not really trust pocket screws, feared thing would drift while I was screwing things down :o
Hey it was the first really using them for something that mattered and I did not want to screw up.
Hence I added these batons that allowed me to align and clamp down the wood panel that I wanted to attach.
