A couple of weeks ago, I finished an iroko coffee table for my "God-son". I brought the various elements into the house from my unheated workshop when gluing to ensure adhesion. The parts then went back out to w/shop for finishing and then came indoors for Osmo.
It's been in the house now for a couple of weeks and I've noticed that some of the mitres are moving - probably about a quarter of a millimetre but it's obvious.
I'm thinking of taking the top back out to the workshop and routing some dovetail grooves across the mitres and fitting dovetail pins of iroko.
Is this a sensible approach or are there better options?
