That jig for cutting the desired thickness is worth the price of admission! Very nice, sir! I can envision uses for that even if I never attempt a herringbone rosette. Thank you for sharing.
Thanks for that! My real old Martin #2 has herringbone all over the place. I sure would like to see more of this rosette being put together, or at least the final product. Yer a Genius alright!
That's a really good way to do this. Especially mounting the dial caliper. When I made the guide rails for the router to run on, I used a similar technique but used a 10:1 wedge to move the workpiece. By using scribed lines at 10mm intervals I could get a really precise movement.
I didn't really see how you were going to get the herringbone woven effect 'til the end. Very clever. Anxious to see the results! Need to know if I guessed right.
Nice job Kevin! Guys use your imagination with this and you can create some real cool stuff! Also, one of them cheap eBay dial indicators could be used as your measuring "tool"! 😜

Very interesting to see the problem solving process! Thanks 😀
Kevin. You are a Genius 👍

I want to try that. Thanks for the class.
Hi Kevin
Could you put the strip you just cut into the caliper jaws as a spacer? Just a thought.
Cheers

Ha ha. This is one time the "old school" dial indicator is better than digital.
