David and list, Im wondering, as I write this, if Im gonna look like a fool yet again for posting what is probably obvious to everyone. If I remember the question correctly you asked how one cuts the radii not how one measures or makes it. My procedure was to take a sheet of hardboard (that brown compressed paper like stuff) and lay it out on the driveway. At whatever radius Im trying to make I lay out a string to that fixed point in the driveway and attach a pencil to the string at the end which is now above the hardboard. Naturally this makes a compass with which I make the radius I want. After cutting the hardboard on the compass line I just made I lay that over the wood or laminate that I want to make the rib out of and use the router w/ guide sleeve to follow the hardboard radius I just made. Simple enough but perhaps this isnt what you were thinking about. Greg Newell Greg's Piano Forté www.gregspianoforte.com 216-226-3791 (office) 216-470-8634 (mobile)
