Making a scale: Next steps
Hi everybody,
This is where I got after 3 hours in (somebody else's) workshop. The only power tools I had access was a bench saw and a jigsaw.
Otherwise, this is what I did with a wood file, regular files and sandpaper from a scrap of wood lying around.

Now that I'm back home, I have some sandpaper, hand saw, a jig saw and a drill (and the usual things in a toolbox)
I find that shaping using sandpaper takes forever. I'm thinking of the following steps:
1. rough shaping with a swiss army knife
2. cut the piece with the hand saw
3. smoothen the inside with 50/80 grit sandpaper
4. (you know the usual steps)
Do you see what would get me done faster, given a lack of power tools?
