Ron:
what is the final weight on this jewel? She looks good, got my bottoms and side panels stitched and tack welded. I am like you, I think the bottom panels need to be 1/2 inch longer or the side panels 1/2 inch shorter. What do you think Matt?

Heya Joey,

why not just run some masking tape up from underneath and fill it with woodflour? Quick, easy fix. :D
Regards,
