• Are you looking for a coupon code to buy my software? You can get one from lots of 3rd party sites but they won't work. My software never goes on sale and has never been discounted. The only coupon codes that are given is when I give a club presentation and I offer a discount to the attendees. Other than that, everyone pays the same price.

    Sanding questions

    If the ring is drum sanded on both sides why is it necessary to sand again with a board?? I have made a lot of vases and never done that. The rings are always parallel to each face and true to glue on. Works perfectly, What am I missing here?

    Indian Blanket sawing

    Thanks Lloyd, no magic solutions I guess. That seems the best for me too. A little bit of saw kerf from chatter can really mess up this laminate glue up.

    Indian Blanket sawing

    I have a question about ripping the narrow (1/8) strips from the chevron when constructing the Indian Blanket feature segments. in order to get the cleanest kerf free slices. I have tried both setting the fence at 1/8" and using a Microjig push block with a 1/16 attachment. I have also used a...

    Line Laser

    Thanks Mark, I am familiar with that post. I followed it years ago too. The laser dot is not the same as a line laser that actually shows where the blade will cut in a straight line. All my glue up stuff is patterned after Lloyds ideas. The dot, although good, leaves a little to be desired.

    Line Laser

    Has anyone incorporated a line laser with their saw into 2nd and 3rd generation cutting using LamPro? What do you do? Thinking about trying one.

    Woodturner Pro

    As long as Woodturner Pro has been out.....this seems really strange. Some of the rings are OK then some are off by a lot. Could windows 10 have something to do with it?

    Woodturner Pro

    Has anyone had issues with the calculations being inaccurate for segment rings using Woodturner Pro? I am having real issues. I am using 1/16 accuracy. My ring is 16 segments. Board width 7/8", segment edge length 1", Inside edge 5/8". all dimensions are spot on. Using a wedgie sled so the ring...

    Row Thickness

    Is there a way to change individual row thickness in Segment Pro, or are do they all need to be the same? I want to do a feature ring that is painted. Thinner rings allow more detail to paint. Maybe this is coming in a later version. I am not seeing any way to adjust individual row thickness...

    glueing thin rings

    OK thanks for the help. I think that sounds like a good way to do it.

    glueing thin rings

    Thanks for the reply. Do you just use tape to hold the half rings until dry or just press the segments together and flatten them with weight. I am going to give this a try.

    glueing thin rings

    What is the best way to glue thin rings together and keep them flat? For thicker rings I use blue tape and then clamp with a band clamp then drum sand them flat. I am having trouble with the thinner rings. My feature ring needs to have about 10 rows of 1/8 inch thick rings. They are stacked and...

    Feature ring construction

    Thanks for the advice Lloyd. Just to be clear you are using a frame to glue the chevrons so that the points are in exact line. Then you use the Dubby with a laser to cut the second generation. At this point you glue just the repeating units separately, square them up and angle cut them for a...
