I think it looks good Bud and you did a good job...

You may want to use the cams or the wedges ,, the wedges don't take any screws to make them stay in place and they do hold well...I use them and I got that trick from Bob R. of the RWS..


Plus I can read your text on the snapshots just fine

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!
