Rob's response reminds me I have seen a similar squeak here, usually
with high polish poly finishes, where the source was flexure of the toe
rail, causing a squeak between it and the bottom panel dowels. Solution:
lube the dowels and the holes they ride in. (And check that the toe rail
is well attached to the sides. Ran into one that wasn't attached at
all).
