    Its time again to make some blanks for the trim. This time its easier, being that all I need is 3/4 square blanks to be routed with the cove bit. just take a board any board much like this one.

    [​IMG]

    Cut some lengths to which you need for the trim.

    Plane them to size (in this case 3/4")

    [​IMG]

    Square them up with a jointer or saw depending on if you can get a good true cut.

    [​IMG]

    And then cut them to the desired width (again 3/4")

    [​IMG]

    Note that some of these appear to be less then straight. That is correct. Wood, after cutting, can deflect. That's because the grain at which you just cut may have had tension on keeping itself together, Cutting them allow the board to "bend". That's why I cut so many. I want to insure that the trim is true when its routed and them cut for final installation.

    Not sure what a thicknesser is ? Anyone could do this with patience and practice.

    Yes when you have a passion for something you really try to pay attention to details.

    I have been looking into some more work for myself and this machine. Heres what I already have in place.

    Nice tight Lines on the front of this machine.

    [​IMG]

    So I thought maybe I could take out the Hardcano and do something like this.

    [​IMG]

    And put it in the top space.

    [​IMG]

    Whats everyone think? get back to me...
