Hi folks. I am up for a TV show. I've watched American Iron Chef. My dog could do a better show! Easter week the secret ingredient was Rabbit! We skipped Kentucky Derby week! Anyway........
I cut the slots where the braces would be placed. When I glued up I went skimpy in the exact area the brace slot would be cut. So, chipping them out after the dove saw cut was easy. A little run of sandpaper and rockn roll
I put in the braces 1 at a time. I used a factory squared block to square off the center strip
Then onto cut the sides to fit.....How?
My first idea didn't work but it got me thinking in the right direction.
I read cut them together then the line matches up. I tried a cheap Japan saw because the protruding top edge of the good Dove saw was in the way, this way
So I switched to this method. Still room to think out abetter way, but it worked.
On the bottom I needed to cut only a 1/4" off one and something like 1/32" off the other. I will add more length to the bout in future builds. To close.
But, I did it!
