    Does anybody have plans for a donkey ear shooting board?  To mitre the end of a board?  I made the board in Pauls video and it works great but I’d like to be able to mitre the end of boards too.  I’ve looked all over and can’t seem to locate one.

    Hi Dave,

    The shooting board Ron linked to is a decent one, but I can draw a set of Sketchup plans for another type if you wish. 🙂

    Hi @dave,

    I do not know of any plans. Thanks @gazpal for the offer of a Sketchup drawing.

    Paul did an article a while back on shooting boards and there are a couple of drawings of them that you may want to have a look at.

    You can see the article here: http://www.popularwoodworking.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/11/ShootingBoard2.pdf

    Paul may have more detailed drawings. I will ask him.

    I think Paul’s article truly covers much of what can be said on the topic 🙂

    Never a problem regarding Sketchup plans Joseph 🙂  I’m free most of the time and can swiftly draw something up whenever needed

    You’re very welcome Dave 🙂  I’m unfortunately having problems trying to post Sketchup drawings on here, but I can always email a copy to you if you wish.

    Hi Dave,

    I’ve sent a copy of the drawing and hope it’s the design type you were seeking. 🙂

    Gary,

    Could you perhaps post a link for the rest of us?  This project interests me as well.

    Charles, till Gary is able to post Sketchup on the forum, you would be better off sending him a massage buddy.

    Hi Charles,

    I’ll post drawings here as soon as I can, but shoot me a PM and I can always forward a copy via email if you’d like. 🙂

    Not too sure about being sent massages though Ken 😀
