Just a thought Chris - Could you glue a block onto the base of the jig temporarily to register against the first end cut of each frame? If you cut the first frame against the block and sneak up on the length dimension for the first one, and don't move the table afterward, the other frames fitted in the jig and pushed up to the block and cut at same settings will be same length. (all of them right, or all of them wrong - don't ask me how I know that )You probably need to break the block's glue joint and move it for the opposite hand frames, but it could save some moves / measurement. Hope it helps. Back to my shop now! (impulse engine only today, 0 warp factor) PS how are the shop elves coping with the wheelbarrows of brass swarf?
Looking Good Chris. Once you master tenons, you can then start cutting dovetails in brass. Jim
That's a lot of frame pieces there, Chris! And you get to do 2x the number of those end caps Pretty fun to watch you work And hey - I just read my latest Live Steam mag (yeah, I'm a few weeks behind!) and really enjoyed your first Shop Elf Corner installment on nickel plating. Great work on that too. Looking forward to reading more instalments of the shop elf corner Kim
All that glitters...This is golden though. Will be great to see it coming together...
