Steel meets Wood for the first time! Moved the first 7 chipboard sheets to the main workshop I spent the morning chopping (sawing) them into blanks for the jig moulds. As suggested we are making them in two halves (the tumblehome demands it really) – it seemed to go OK – one slightly crushed foot (dropped a sheet on it – break out the toe-tecters!) and no accidents with the circular saw (although cutting mould 13 was done with some care!)…
So far the planning has worked – I drew out the overall sizes for each mould and shuffeled them onto 8by4 sheets in AutoCAD…
As always very impressive!
