Purfling Channel

Today I cut the purfling channel using Mr. Reed's jig. Unfortunately, it was not able to cut the channel in the corners. Now it's time to start cutting the channel the old fashioned way, by hand.

I have now finished the second rough arching, and rough looking it is.

I have also spot glued my plates together in order to sand the edges of the plates identical to each other.

Outline Finished, Rough Arching Started



Today I finished cutting the outline following the pencil line. Then I used the spindle sander to take it even closer to the pencil. I also started the first rough arching today.
