    Thanks David. I've been looking around and it seems dewaxed shellac alone is a recommendation because most finishes won't stick. Not exactly what I wanted to hear but you've got to listen to the...

    A plaque with an 8" x 10" picture in the center. The edges will be routed, some carved text and possibly an inlaid piece of Pao Ferro or some other wood which will also have carved text on it.

    Pine finishing

    I've got some of what my vendor calls Carribean Heart Pine, and it's gorgeous but seems to be very oily based upon its weight and the residue it left on my sanding drum.

    How would you recommend...

    Alright, ordered the guide you have pictured there. I was thinking about the Veritas MK II when I bought the plane and water stones but didn't want to spend another $65+.

    Thanks again...

    You know what, I agree. I'm not even going to attempt it, even though I want to get cutting with this darned thing. I just sent an email to LN.

    Thanks Brian. How important, or is it important that the material is 3/4"? The material I'm buying is already planed to right about .82". Without a backer board, how tough is it to do these...

    Hi Mike,

    These boxes are cremation urns, so I have the same concern about longevity, plus the issue of alignment which the biscuit should help with too. Have you setup a jig for doing these? I...

    Hi Jim,

    I think you responded a while back to another thread I posted on this. I did try the tape method but the very tips of the corners weren't as tight as I'd like them. The gap was small but...
