There will be routing this weekend, oh yes

My new router base arrived Wednesday, a day before any of the stuff I paid for did.  Nice.  And in Thursday’s mail came 6 pieces of new ebony, bigger than the pieces I got from Stew-Mac, and a whopping 1/16" thicker, which should help.  You can compare the original on the far left with the new ones.  And the new dental burrs arrived, too. 
Back in business.

I decided to get a jump on things and glue my shell down to the ebony now, so that I can scribe them on Saturday, although we’re having dinner guests and a puppy viewing, so thar be cooking and cleaning to do, so we’ll see.  I’m anxious to get back to work on these, though. I chose this piece because it had a flaw at the top and a blond streak down one edge. I figured I’d use the worst of the batch first.

Reglued and ready for scribing...again.
