This did not work and evidently it allowed the template to move a bit as the piece just was not the proper shape. So I went back and fixed it up in the jig holder with packing etc. like I should have and it worked just fine as shown in the photos. Anyway... this one I am happy with... it was fun!

Very good Corey!

Did you use an Inlay guide / bushing kit with a 1/8" cutter on a 1/4" shaft?

What did you use on the router?

OH, BTW, Black text, in pictures, shows up best against a light background. ... pics were self-explanatory.

Thank you.
