    What might this be? ... I do know, but do you?

    More to the point, can we smoke it ? :dunno:

    Shooting board woes

    If all else fails, maybe put the work on a milling machine. :) Remember, this is wood we're talking about. One piece needs to be fitted to another. It's not about micron accuracy to square, as such. It is about creating a tight, and pleasing, liason between one piece of wood and another. ETA ...

    How would I mark out the shape of this frame?

    As it's all symmetrical, make a stencil from some stiff card. The stencil should only be one half of the overall form. Then, by the use of a centre line you flip the stencil over to mirror the exact shape on the other side. If that makes sense :unsure: :)

    A small amount of awkwardness and discomfort right now, but avoiding an absolute shed load later. (y) (y) Your life will thank you for it. :)

    A little truth for a change.

    It was also a tremendous example of how democracy can be manipulated and abused.

    A little truth for a change.

    Therein sort of lies my point. 10,000 years in a 4 billion year existence is a fraction of a blink of an eye.

    A little truth for a change.

    Absolutely. Of both those assertions there is no doubt. We think we're important. Mother Nature probably has a slightly different opinion.

    A little truth for a change.

    So, the planet's climate has remained stable and unchanged since the Big Bang, then ? It has only started changing since our industrialisation during the last couple of centuries ? :unsure: That is, if I'm following the reasoning being applied here...

    A little truth for a change.

    Largely my sentiments also. Is it about doing the best for the planet, or the best for ourselves ? We certainly have an inflated view of our importance and place in the natural world.

    Seriously, just say no. It doesn't need to be any more complicated than that. You're digging yourself into a hole with this.

    Helping out a family member

    I do think @Bingy man that some jobs are not worth taking on. So many red flags there and quite unreasonable demands. This one sounds absolutely cursed even before it has started. Others are confirming what you really know yourself. Even if said family members are not happy that you decline to...
