Re: THAT FRIDAY FEELING, PART 2

I'd guess they've been purpose made, maybe even on a 3D printer?

Re: Framing battered motorcycle print

All of the shades of the blue in the images are from the same tonal range. I think you need to go through your mount samples and pull out anything that sits well tonally with the blue and see for yourself what works. As a designer only you can make the choices.

Re: Stacking V-Nails

I think it's a common occurrence tbh. I just use the longest v nail I can, like 15mm and clamp overnight. I've never managed to regularly successfully stack wedges! The alternative is the Hoffmann dovetail router.
