Wow thanks! I’ve been practicing! I guess it shows

Dude is just pump and dumping the whole fucking economy

So cool. How did this people craft such intricate art?

Okay I have the jig clamped to a board here. I use a bit with a 3/4” diameter. If I run it down the length of this jig it will cut a 3/4” dado. So to make the jig I glued a piece of 1/4” plywood onto a wider piece of 1/4” plywood. Then I used a 3/4” router bit to cut through the wider piece by running it against the glued on upper piece.

So wherever I clamp this jig is exactly where my 3/4” dado will go

Here is the circular saw jig that is made and used the same way

Did I explain it well?

Cool project! I’ve made a jig to do this that’s so much simpler. It’s the same thing as a circular saw jig. I just clamp it onto where I want a dado

That was so rad. I love the fleshy pad on the chest and the weird mouth placenta balloon

Looks great!

Looks great! Thanks for sharing

Oh I’m so glad to hear that! Thank you for updating me. Post the project so we can see?

Got to hang out in Guadalajara Mexico it was fun and delicious

Haha that’s very nice I’m glad you were there to share the experience with me. Yes I absolutely would make it again I loved making it.

And then I could use this mirror to create a new stencil which was the hardest part of it

Thank you!

Ya I don’t love that either but I felt it was necessary for structure.

I’m super proud of it!

Awesome! That’s just the look I wanted. I love that style of art and I wanted something like that

You nailed it! I started with a stencil I made from hardboard using a jigsaw. Then router And the tight corners with chisel

Pink Muhli grass? 🎶 I’m gonna keep on dancing at the pink muhli grass

Haven’t decided yet. What would you do?

Haha yes it has been so nerve wracking until just this point.

It’s going better! I’m almost done I can’t wait to show you. Thanks for asking

Oh that’s alright. I’ll get it right next time For sure I’ll post it!

I love that. You should post some of his work here. We would love to see it.

I changed the icon - unfortunately the rectangle image doesn't fit great in the circle but I think folks will get it. At least you and I do. If you check out our sidebar I wrote a little something there too. Thanks!
