I've had my shop windows covered with sheets since it was built to keep prying eyes out. I decided after seeing a video on YT that it was time to do something about this. Using the basic design from John Heisz - I build it channel, I followed his idea except cut the pieces out on my ShopBot CNC. Here's some pics with the pieces just setting together on my workbench.
Then using the same jig idea to cut the slots in the 3/4" dowels
This is where I'm at with some of the pieces dry assembled upside down on my bench. The next pic is of the blind slats waiting to be cut to length.
