Clean one edge, joint and rip other side etc.

Is there something I need to really pay attention to in doing this
lamination? Is it easier than I think? I think I am worried about seeing
small voids between laminations after I rip to width.


As you always should, totally coat the surface with glue and put as many
clamps on the set up as you can. It is easier to glue all the pieces at one
time however the pieces tend to slip a bit. You can shoot a short brad in
to each inner piece to keep them from creeping when applying the pressure.
BE SURE to keep the brads near the center so that you do not cut into them
when you cut the taper and square the corners.

If your boards are flat you should not have any void problems.

BTY did the new Rikon motor fix the problem you were having?
