Steve, does this mean I'm going to have to buy a copy of GWW?
Hey, come on, of course it does!! If I'm promoting scroll saws you have to buy GW. It's the law. Mwa.
Tim,
Interesting idea, and I don't see why it shouldn't work. But you would have to get to depth first (assuming you are using a shank-mounted bearing). Or perhaps you could use a bush, in which case you could get down gradually, but then you would have very thick walls (template + bush/cutter offset).
On balance I think the slice & scroll is altogether an easier and safer way, and I guarantee you can't see the join.
BTW, since that article I've finished the insides with Suede-Tex, which I saw at Stoneleigh. There was some discussion about "felt" lining a while ago. I've written a review for GW about it, so I'm hoping Nick will publish that soon too. When he does, I'll also post it in the Review section here. In summary :- Does what it says on the tin. Pricey but good.
Cheers
Steve, who has yet to receive his copy.
