Mike, I probably missed that in his post. The picture looks like the support is across the board, hence my comment.
l’ll be starting my Speedwell log very soon.

One suggestion Rusty, I’d add another support in the middle to keep the board from sagging.

Jeff,
It’s best to sand the laser burn off the parts while they’re still in the billets. No chance of rounding the edges that way.

Chuck,
Do you think a group build like the Winnie would be a good idea? Thoughts???

What does the gap look like on the other side? Remember, the laser doesn't cut perfectly straight, so I would think that a slight adjustment on the other end would be appropriate. I'm sure that Chuck will chime in.

Given up, no. I had a major flood disaster in my workshop that required a foundation rebuild. Working with insurance wasn’t fun and things stalled for a while. But now things are settled and back in place, so I’m ready to go. While I’m still very enthusiastic about Cheerful, a POF like Speedwell has been a bee in my bonnet for a long time and nothing out there has captured my POF excitement until your Speedwell came along. Besides, having worked in the aerospace industry for over 40 years, your approach and design aspect's are extremely appealing to the detailed side of me. And yes, a build log will be created. Thank you.

I’m following along also. You’ve made a very good start to your Medway. She’s a fun build and will teach you a lot, at least for me it did.

Chuck, you make this look so very easy, but I know that’s not the case. I just love the intricacies of this endeavor and I’ve been studying the Speedwell books. I’m so looking forward to this project!

I love how you painted your initials on the hair bracket. Very clever!
