Tom,
Thank you for the detailed pictures of the operation.
I have to mention this... To me, it would have been easier to make a pattern out of 1/4" hardboard, mdf, or plywood real scale size, then just tape it to the workpiece which has been rough-cut on a bandsaw, and route it using a flush bearing bit getting it cut exactly to size in one simple operation.
In this case, what do you think?
I can see the guides & templates being used more when doing the 'carving' type projects.
Are bearing bits harder to get over there?
Thank you for your input. |
