: Beginning to build Nick's Mystery!

: This is my plan for the scarfing jig I used 5 years ago when I
: built a Great Auk. As you should be able to see from both this
: plan and the photos of the jig on my Flickr page, your hands are
: no where near the blade.
: The trick to this jig is that you never push it all the way through
: the blade, just slide it forward 6-7" then pull it back.
: I've also never experienced the cut off flying through the air.
: (Of course take your own precautions. )

: (I hope this message works, it's my first attempt with Flickr and
: posting images to the Kayak forum)
: Here's the URL for my Flickr Page
: http://www.flickr.com/photos/willn2/4764809527/sizes/l/in/photostream/
: (I couldn't copy and paste the link to the page-with-the-mage, but
: I was able to open the image and copy that URL. If you go to my
: flickr page you'll find photos of the jig in action and a few
: other shop widgets. )

: Will
