WOODWORKING QUIZ for 2 June 04

[Ralph Jones]

Good Evening Friends,
When making typical parts for a project, rather than making copies of the pattern and gluing them to your wood.

What method would you use?

Respectfully, :)

[journeyman Mick]

Depends on how many parts there were/detail/deadline etc. If there were a lot of parts or they were intricate or I was pushed for time I'd take the timber down to a mob I deal with and get them to knock them out on their Morbidelli CNC router. I have also used vacuum hold down template jigs, hot glue and screws to hold patterns to jigs. Horses for courses.

Good Morning Mick,
When you mentioned template you were right on target as that is what I was looking for.

Thank you for your support.

Respectfully, :)
