Re: Ron Steiger
LITTLE Later in the day I hand sanded the edges ,glued and bookmatch the back..I had to get a close up to see the line ,not bad for not having a shotting board
little later in the same day I glued the glue joint to over lap with a same piece of wood...take a look...
just before I went home I sanded and glued my first brace in a arch disc...I leave this over night..
I have a job in simi valley be back monday ...have a good week end ..and thanks for looking..
