I have seen it done many times but never done it myself.

here is my version - done differently
I call it the impossible E and it's done with magic.
I have a lot of fun with people who ask me how...I never tell them.
Used as my screen saver at the moment

Sure does.
Except for the final sanding, the entire process can be done in one day. Use a follower block for compression, and drill through it while still in the vise. Recovery is also faster. In fact, with accelerated drying, the sanding might even be done the same day. Regular oven, not microwave because of the metal component.

Magic
Some folks have nothing better to do, but way better than CG, the real effort you know!
Must be magic!

Been watching his stuff for some time now.
