spirals flutes braids are easy
interesting machine http://bellingham.craigslist.org/tls/5567174665.html hard to justify buying one of these but would be great if you made custom staircases good for ballisters and railings and furniture even |

Of course I NEVER did that, right? Right !! :-) |

Of course I NEVER did that, right? Right !! :-) never have tried just too much time involved they are all done by cnc now but i think a certain element is missing when something in wood shows perfection i enjoy imperfections in the craftmanship it tells something where as the perfect cnc stuff does not but i still find the these pre-cnc mechanical fluters interesting in a link i sent around there was a chapter on spirals |
