Cross Tie Box Assembly.

I cut out two of the channels used in the cross tie box assembly. I used the bench sander to trim the ends of the channel that needs to have the flanges extend 1/8 inches beyond the web.

Cross Ties

I continued to work on the cross ties today. I trimmed the angles on the end of upper #2 tie. Next, I cut and trimmed the #3 and #4 upper cross ties.
