Thanks for the tip. I'll try building some kind of fence for my inverted belt sander.

Thanks also for the positive feedback regarding my website. I have to say that it's aimed primarily at my dad, who's 91 and built a few boats in his day. He's very intrigued by the process, and isn't familiar with strip building, so I'm trying to include explanations for his benefit. It might seem a bit basic for the readers of this forum.

In addition, my wife works for another 90 year old who's interested in this kind of thing, so he's going to be checking out my progress as well. However, anyone else is welcome to view. Newcomers to the hobby might find some of the more basic information informative.
