More subtle changes. I filled in some low spots across the top and bottom, then did the bulk of the sanding across the rear upright. I'll have to iterate over it a few times to get everything dialed in, but now I have a better picture of where the lows are, where its highs are, and how I'll approach it.

Also pressed some putty into some tight lowspots in the front bottom inside corner. Those changes won't show in the photo, but there was some pocking and bumpiness along the vertical seam that I'm trying to get smoothed out.

Blue tape flags are pointing to the areas of focus for next round.

Making steady progress!  The tags are a good idea so you can focus your attention for the next days work. Slowly getting there.

I was interrupted in the middle of sanding and immediately knew that I wasn't going to be getting back out to my shop tonighy so I snapped a quick pic where I was stopped.

Picked up and continued where I had left off, but we are VERY hot this week(current heat index is 98degF), so it's been uncomfortable to work for extended periods of time in my undonditioned workshop.

I made a mistake along to top rail between the first and second louvers that I'll need to revisit to correct. But other than that, slow forward progress. The largest change from last step is that the rear stile was sanded down flush. That opened up the visible gap at the rear a bit more than it already was, but it can get corrected now.

I have a tight, crisp fit along the left and bottom. The top and rear need more fiddling, then I'll be ready to move on to working the vanes smooth.

Keep up the good work.  You will get there in the end.
