.Not a happy camper at this point. I had to take all this back out and cut this wall out in half down the center and I splined in 3/4" cabinet grade birch and well I ended up doing both sides 
. Took me a couple days and hard work but now it's straight as an arrow and square. 
now I'm back on schedule and doing things a little differently. Taking my time for starters. Oh and the wood that came out! Went down good with the beer I burned up!!
