I finished the ripping and bead and cove.

In Response To: Ripping my strips (John Danley)

I finished ripping my strips, and I cut the bead and cove edges on the strips. That was a lot easier than what I thought it might be. I started out using my shaper and power feeder but that didn't work out all that good. My power feeder isn't much good for feeding small strips only 3/4" x 1/4". So, I put the bit in my router table and installed Board Buddies. That made a big improvement. The Board Buddies held the strips down on the table, and tight against the fence. It was just a matter of feeding the stock and letting the router and the Board Buddies do their thing. I couldn't be happier with the finished results.
