    Dang Ken. You ought to be the forum” hot-link/site finder/organizer/point-me-the-right-way” guy. Or better yet, you ought to be on Jeopardy….

    Ken: What are medullary rays?

    Trebeck: Correct! Next category?

    Ken: Give me “See-Saws” for $2000

    Trebeck: It has 13 teeth…

    Ken: What is an 1848 Spear & Jackson cast steel folded bronze back tenon saw.

    Trebeck: Correct! Incredible! Please wait for me to finish the question so the other contestants have a chance.

    LOL.

    Paul is the “Key Master” and so is Joseph. So, by the power not vested in me, I hereby nominate Ken Haygarth as the Woodworking Masterclasses “Knowledge Keeper”. 😉

    @admin – Would you kindly change his title?

    The last two sets I’ve made were just extruded angle aluminum cut to length. Paint one set of tips a dark color, rattle-can spray paint is fine.    Hardly qualifies as a “project”.  The stuff that looks like this:

    Otherwise just get your hands on some stable hardwood, quartersawn if possible but rift or flatsawn will be fine, plane it flat maybe 1/2″ thick then parallel the two edges on each piece and then put a wide chamfer along what will be the top edge. Paint the tips of one a contrasting color or inlay a contrasting wood.

    I haven’t used my wooden ones in a couple of years since making the aluminum ones. The wooden ones are probably a bit wonky now and need tuning.
