    Default WARNING: may be too thin for big pieces

    Congratulation Chris
    You did very well and it is very useful for each one of us. Thanks.
    Can I draw attention of those who want to make one?
    Personaly I would not have carved so much with the rooter. You might have some vibrations on large pieces for the little wood left near the junction of your curves.
    See picture which explains much better what I mean


    The problem can be easyly resolved buy doing curves with a larger radius, thus enabeling to take small pieces while keeping more wood between curves.

    Well spotted Claude - this is the main reason I stuck with just 4 buttons on my chucks - didn't want to weaken anything more than necessary.
