: Hallo builders,
: I read about making rolling bevels and that it should be easy. I have a
: question about it. When you make a bevel normaly you bevel both sides of
: the connection. What I understand here is that only the last strip which
: has to be glued is beveled at the non-free-side. When you bevel both sides
: evenly, the lenght of the contact is equal. But when you only bevel one
: side and the other side is square, you have one strip protruding on the
: back, at least when you make them equal on the outside. How do you cope
: with that problem?
: I have tried to explain it in the picture.

Rarely if ever will you have as sharp an angle as shown in your example.
If you do, you will need to use narrower strips to round it, which solve your problem.
In your drawing you have pushed the bottom strip example into the curve to align the
exterior edges of the strips, when in reality the interior edges of the strips
would align and the exterior edge of your new strip would kick out.
In short, it's not a problem. Doing it, will resolve grey matter problems.
All the best,
Rob
