Title: St. Charles glue-a-thon..
Post by: gooseforsupper on February 28, 2016, 07:16:49 AM
Howdy gang!
My glue-a-thon of my St. Charles entry continues, so here are some teaser pictures..  :up1:

Into the drum sander with all my glued up rings.  Nail biter every time I do this, but they came out perfectly leveled.  :yes:

Getting there...

My test pieces and rejects.  This pattern is so complicated that I am catching many mistakes and I go along.   :stickman1:  Shooting for perfection has it's downfalls, but so far it is looking sweet...

All the Best!

All those tiny pieces with little tolerance - I bet you're going to end up cross eyed.
