If you have trouble grinding 2 sides for a wedge just do one side then trim the top to equalise the angle. Get my drift ?

Yes I do I will try that because I do struggle with it. Last wedge I made was equal but when final installment happened it has just the slightest gap. I need micro fasteners just haven't picked any up yet. Thanks for that tip!

Well, I've been through a period of laziness that I get sometimes, when I contemplate the past and meditate about the future. Those who hit 40's know best. But I grew tired of it and got back to the present. So I popped in the neighborhood for news and gossips.

Trying to catch up on what I missed here the last couple days and I feel like I just took an advanced class in scales work! The scrimshaw, the painting, the horn repair, the bone work, liners, pins, carving, CA repairs... man you guys have serious technical skills and knowledge deserving of great admiration. Excellent work.
