  1. So my sister saw the bowl and asked me to make her and my other sister a bowl. I was not happy with the result of using the miter gauge to make the segments so I did some research and discovered wedge sleds and studied them for a few days and didn't really like exactly what I found so I designed something a bit different. There's a lot of videos on how to make them but they seemed inaccurate at best. I did some CAD work and came up with this CAD design for a wedge sled. Cutting from the bottom the holes and slot. I added a hand hold and something to secure the right edge. First test cut with some scrap wood, I'm a happy camper... I wanted to be in control of the segment as it's cut off and not let it have a burr. It's just MDF nothing fancy but super accurate as far as I can tell. This is a 10 segment black walnut ring I cut on the wedge sled. I might be tricked into making a few wedge sleds for cost it there is any interest in them. I'd just make the base and the fences on my CNC mill you would need to make the hand hold and supply the hardware and make the miter slot and insert. I have a spreadsheet to calculate the length and width of the segments as soon as I put that on my web site I'll add a link here. This is the calculations for the wedges. Needless to say I was very happy with the results. Now on to the bowls... what a mess under the router table but that's been cleaned up by now. Now I couldn't send my sisters a one of a kind bowl without engraving something from their brother on the bottom of the bowl so I had to come up with a way to hold the bowls while making the bottom perfectly flat and engraving the message. V-Carve works best with a level surface and I'm not good enough on the lathe to do that so I did it on the mill. The engraving jig clamps. I put a center mark in the bottom of the bowl while it was on the screw chuck during Op #1. I used that center to fix the X0 location of the bowl on the mill. The jig is 8" deep so Y-4 is the center of the bowl for engraving. Making the bottom flat This one is for my wife! For my sisters JT
  2. I'm building a lumber rack from 2X4s and 3/4" EMT. I need to drill 3/4" holes at a 5° angle on the edge of an 8' 2X4. They need to start 1' from the end and go up in 1' increments. My problem is that the holes need to angle upward along the length. As you know, our table only tilts on one axis. In the DP mode, that's front and back. Am I missing something?
  3. This is a very unusual ball. The natural designs in the grain are quite unexpected
  4. I wanted to use a torch to darken Purple heart. I made a overly complicated ornament, three and a half inches long. I drilled, cut angles and turned. Then I burned it. I learned...... 1.Cutting angles on a table saw with something this small is very tricky, I used clamps, safety shield and kept my body and fingers away. 2.Do not use glued wood and heat. Glue melts and causes cracks. 3.Do not leave heat in one area too long. It gets too dark. 4.Stop heating with a color much lighter than you want. The finish makes it at least twice as dark. Having said that, it came out OK. It has flaws most can't see. If I was going to make another, I be a lot smarter. However, I'm not making anymore of them.
  5. For the life of me I cannot duplicate this angle. Compound angle, at facia corner. I have the two dry rotted pieces to go off of, but I just can't get it right. Can someone please teach me how to arrive at the proper compound angle for this? Thanks
