Top shaping


Carve, carve, carve.

Hey Brock
Your blog is gorgeous. I want to show it to a bunch of people. The kerfing/bending of the back looks nerve racking. I remember the day you taught me how to bend sides; it sure looked easy when you did it. Does the whole back try to warp when you bend it or does it more or less go where you want it to? Do you do anything to seal the kerf slot after the whole thing is bent? Could moisture get in there (the newly exposed endgrain) causing future shrink/swell problems or is that not an issue? You must have a super reliable fence on your saw or a love of living life dangerously. Wow. I'd like to see more photos of the side lamination process. And maybe one or two of you for good measure.
Miss you
