I feel sure I am being very dumb but I am having trouble with the layout of the shooting board video that Paul did on the site.
I have measured back 5 inches and marked the 90 degree line.
I follow the next bit about splitting the distance which is 14 inches and divided this into two giving 7 inches.
Now I start getting lost. I assume the next mark, the first 45 degree line is at the 7 inch mark. After that I have totally lost it. Where to mark the next 45 degree line come back an inch? What?? Help???
Has anyone got a drawing of the layout a photo maybe, or could someone please explain
Thank you10 September 2013 at 10:52 am #18550hi after your first 45 degree line (which goes toward the 90 degree line you made) go back to your 7″ mark and mark another line about 1″ up toward the 90 degree line and turn your square over so you aree now marking a line away from the 90 degree line toward the left of the board and then set the board aside as you will mark the other lines from your wedges as and when you have cut them off the the thicker stock if you are still not sure let me know and i will send a picture i hope this helps not hinders 🙂
