In Response To: Strip: Building a Shooting Star (Josh Cohen)

I am getting ready to build the SS. I am building a few things from the instruction booklet before I order the plans. Here is a picture of the lower bow piece. I need to set my camera for a higher resolution. I glued up the three 1/4" laminated pieces together and then layed out the piece. I seem to make things and then read the instructions. Dow the three pieces together and draw the shape, take them apart, dow the two outside shapes together and cut them, then cut the center piece, glue and dow them all together. That way you don't have to route out the center as I did.
