well this morning i cut 4 covers. break for lunch brought downpours of rain.

i did get one cover glued and am heading out to finish the other 3.

i was surprised 2 cuts would sell the 3D (pic 1)

the elbow on the left ended up less than 1/16" from the edge so when i finished the cut i pulled out the blade and slid the cover to the edge and added a spine before attempting to lift it off the saw. (pic2)

just waiting for a few coats of semi-gloss (pic 3)

Very cool stuff - I must say.

Question: Are those relief cuts?

I've been reading about them but am confused how they work

all the cuts are 90* to the table. the different 1/16" layers of the plywood are used to set depth so i can adjust all the way down to 1/32" or less. (pic 1)

once i choose the depth i use spots of glue so if i am not happy i can cut it and adjust. when i am happy i flood the back with glue so it can not move.(pic 2)

 

did that answer work? i confuse myself sometimes.

Yeppers - I like your technique - it seems easier than relief cuts - and I have plenty of glue LOL
