Hi Henrik,

Welcome to the forum. I would like to kindly caution you in your use of using the heat gun to bend sides. All of your heat is aimed directly at, and in close proximity to the MDF, which is full of resins and formaldehyde. Not only are the fumes toxic but also wood will burn at <300*F so be EXTREMELY careful!!! All it takes is for you to focus your attention on something else for a few seconds and you have a dangerous fire on your hands. Please rethink this method of bending sides and be VERY attentive. No matter how careful you are, unplanned accidents do happen.

Now, back to your beautiful walnut build!
