    Well done p.t.c. I agree larger sized images would be great.

    Always great to see a new shape and innovations.

    Default bring on the elastic

    Elastic bands are often better for that really unique and interesting shaped work!

    thanks for the Greenie.
    Design I think you have to try and make it fit the Radius on your sander.
    I got a set of french curves.
    As i am unable to Laminate to get the size of the block
    i have to make design fit the wood.
    Does that sound right ?
