Todd, thanks for the great, and very clear tutorial.  I have previously bought my molds and bending patterns, but now may have the courage to try building my own shape(s).  Really looking forward to seeing your bending pattern tut. too!


BTW, what type of router table do you have/how do you like it?


Thanks again for the great info!  I look forward to reading/seeing more of your tutorials.

Todd,

Fantastic tutorial! Very detailed, and the photo’s really make it easy to understand everything you’re doing!

I have a question though.

After sides are bent and in the mold, with spreaders in place, do you ever end up with space
between sides and mold anywhere along the inside edge of the mold?

Robert

Hi Todd,

Thanks for answering my question!

It just so happens, I’m at this stage right now. How about I post a pic of what I got later today?

Robert
