So, out comes the chisels a little early and scraper and an order for more kerfing and other goodies.

Meanwhile, a recent project with padauk has left my bench plane a little dull and my back plate is still .13" thick in places, so I need to sharpen my planes, chisels and scrapers.

Two steps forward for one step back but I'm trying to be patient and keep my eyes on the goal.
Do you have a band saw? You could make your own kerfing without too much difficulty.
