Hi....my name is Greig Hornor.....from Spokane, WA.....pretty much a beginner in the woodworking/router world, but learning quickly......look forward to meeting all of you in the forum, sharing ideas, experiences, etc.....am sure i will learn more from you all than i will teach you, at least for a while......and i might as well start now!!
I am trying to make some hearts for my family for a reunion around christmas. They are one piece and have the middle out so it is kind of like a pretzel heart. I made a template thinking i could flush trim the 3/4" stock using the template. But as i make the turn to going around the cross grain portion of the stock, I tear out and split the grain. If you understand what I am trying to make the heart look like, maybe you could offer me some ideas on a better way, or some ideas how to flush trim from a template on circular or oval shape. Thanks and I look forward to chatting with all of you......Greig Hornor
