Well Thats a Great Start

Got some of Graham's Englemann glued up for a classical top and was drilling a hole for the router circle cutting jig and.....crack....split the two halves cleanly in two with the drill bit. This tuff is a bit more brittle than Sitka. Managed to clean up the two halves and get them back in the glue up jib. Spent the rest of the day sipping Eden Valley Riesling...not much chance of stuffing that up.

That can go all wrong too !

Good decision though Martin . Some days just don't work out as planned .

We do like pictures of cock-ups though mate. It makes us all feel better

[Paul B]

Did it split along the glue line? Were you using a brad point bit?

[kiwigeo]

No I wasnt using a brad tip bit but will be for the next attempt.

Sounds like a good save there , Martin.

Hmm.................Riesling...................


cheers, Stu
