    I have often wondered about doing a möbius, but am daunted by how to start. Perhaps I should just get up and give it a try.
    Thanks for the motivation.

    Great work and something I’d love to tackle after being inspired attending the Maleny show also. Keep the progress up keen to see photos!

    I’ll checkout that course

    Cheers

    Make a pattern to look at while carving. Take a strip of paper 25mm wide and 200mm long or thereabouts (not critical). Bring the ends together to form a loop, but twist 1 end 180 degrees. Tape the joint where the ends meet. Now you can just set this on the bench and use it as a visual reference. If you want a challenge of something a bit harder, twist the 1 end 180 degrees three times. Just start...if you mess it up, it's only a small piece of wood so you can toss it and start over.
