Let's see what I can make with this

 

But before I can cut this I needed to do some advance work.

The internet was too smart for me, the formulas were above my understanding so I needed to draw and cut some paper out in the old trial and error method.


After that I needed to make this contraption using springs and wheels and plywood.




A tall sprung wheeled feather board.  

Alright let's cut up some lumber!

And then let's cut it again with this.

That cut made this.

Glue those up, I did it in sections.

All glued together.


So far, so good.  Let's have an espresso!

The glue up needed to be cut to size, finally some black and white of the offcuts.



16" tall fence with some guide blocks.


 The piece starts out on this side.

Finishes up on the other side.


And lo and behold consistently mikes out around .040-43"

That's the end of Phase One of Section One.

More to come.
