  1. Today I started on the final shaping on the headrest for the rocker. Photo below is the roughed out coopered headrest. I had to plane down the glue squeeze out because the next step is to joint one end of the headrest and I need a relatively unobstructed surface to ride against the joiner fence. There, all clean now. Now that one side is cleaned up pretty good I made one end of the headrest nice and flat for a good reference surface for the band-saw operation. One end is nice and clean now. I traced a nice arc on the rough end with my pattern I use for all the rocker headrests. Remember I need the clean end to ride on the band saw table. I hung my 3/4" 3 TPI re-saw blade on my 14" band-saw with riser-block. And I cut on the pattern line. My band saw is well tuned, it has to be in order to make cuts like this. I am however looking for a set of new guides, these are a tad worn. But they seem to be holding up fair for now. I can saw veneers with my 14" Grizzly Bandsaw, it's a good saw. With my sanding block sawed and shaped to the same radius as my headrest, I need to sand the lumps out by hand and also level the surface, this is a long process, it typically takes about a half hour or more to get this arc nice and smooth with zero imperfections and lumps. I use 60 grit for this process. I can get a ton of leverage when I clamp it up to my bench and I am able to exert body weight down onto the surface. Thanks for following along!
