    Thanks for the comment. It took the best part of a day to make the first one. Rushing only means mistakes the second took longer as to make the pattern I sat in front of the computer looking at patterns on the web which gave me the idea of where to place cut outs and the like before using a photo and converting it to a pattern. Mostly common sense and did it look right. I am now looking to buy some quick release clamps for the saw to help speed things up also plenty of practice. As people say "slowly slowly catchy monkey"
