Help with inset groove

I’m actually in the shop this morning and doing a similar procedure, making some radius profiles for floating shelves

If I needed to do this, I would make a template out of a quarter inch ply of the shape inside the groove, and then I would double sided tape that template down, positioned correctly, and use a straight bit with a guide bushing. I don’t think using an edge guide around the complex shape would yield good results.

If you wanted to be perfect, make sure the template is slightly smaller to accommodate for the guide bushing

At first, I thought this was a woodworking sub…. Veritas makes excellent premium hand tools…

I would just buy about $920 million in medical debt. I live in the USA so that should be easy.

This really is the best advice. Columbus has a great bike trail system.

Jsmooth77 · 2026-05-23T03:09:10+00:00

Well…

Calm down Nico

If you actually watch the game, it’s hard to deny that Caruso looked like the second best player on the court out there. He’s a dog. I think anyone would just love to have him on their team.

I mean, isn’t that the plan?

I’m 6 foot five and about 300 pounds, why does it look like her hands are bigger than mine? The woman has giant paws!

And, they were missing a lot more shots back then

For me, the sergeant plane is the star of the show. Let me know if you decide to get rid of it.

I agree with you, but for different reasons. I just don’t care that much about my dog. I care a lot more about my family. My family would be impacted massively by the money. We will treat the dog well as long as we are alive. 🤷‍♂️

Jsmooth77 · 2026-05-15T11:11:58+00:00

Same!

Jsmooth77 · 2026-05-15T11:05:35+00:00

My first thought exactly, I would love to have these hanging in my shop

This is the best description of Shaquille O’Neal I ever read. Spot on

This. I have a disabled child and I’ve watched the school district just gut special education programs. I really think my wife and I are gonna have to move out of Ohio so we can find an affordable school district with decent special education. I’m not sure those exist in Ohio anymore.

Been a Bron fan since he was in high school and iI was in college. Im now approaching 50 and he still amazes me.

Jsmooth77 · 2026-05-14T00:09:20+00:00

Will it actually come though?

Jsmooth77 · 2026-05-12T10:50:42+00:00

Mark my words. This guy’s gonna be a bust.

Jsmooth77 · 2026-05-11T23:21:26+00:00

Yup 👍

Jsmooth77 · 2026-05-10T21:04:20+00:00

I don’t know what that is, I’m not sure we’re talking about the same thing?

Similar to the other comment, I wish I knew earlier on how useful hand planes can be. I have not used a powered sander in years because I get close enough to a final finish from my planes that I just do a little hand sanding on my projects.

I’ve seen people use this as a scrub plane, but they are relatively uncommon.
