3Dface Posted February 24, 2018 Report Posted February 24, 2018 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) new2woodwrk, bobscroll and jollyred 3 Quote
new2woodwrk Posted February 24, 2018 Report Posted February 24, 2018 Very cool stuff - I must say. Question: Are those relief cuts? I've been reading about them but am confused how they work Quote

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. new2woodwrk and bobscroll 1 1 Quote

Yeppers - I like your technique - it seems easier than relief cuts - and I have plenty of glue LOL 3Dface 1 Quote
