I had some red oak gathering dust, so decided to try and turn it into some mission style end tables. Designed the tables combining features from some pictures I liked. The parts (with exception of drawer bodies and bottom shelves) for four tables are cut out, mortise and tenons made, rough sanding and dry fitting complete. Next comes lots (and lots) of sanding, glue-up, making drawers, and finishing. Two of the tables are 24" tall and two are 30" tall - same design except leg and slat length. Added a couple pictures below.
Advice needed: I have burn marks at the ends of part of the flutes in the legs. I am sanding the length of the flutes with sandpaper around a dowel, but any advice on sanding the ends of the fluting? Sandits? (I have never tried these). I will likely seek advice again in a few weeks when I get ready to finish (fitting table builds in around other work). Thanks for any advice.

Sorry for the rotated pictures - they were oriented correctly on my computer before uploading.
