Nice work David. I really dig the flare on the side braces.

Real sweet David. That is a nice touch on those side braces.
Now, that jig there holding your dremel. What is that? Did you make that? What a perfect tool for cutting that channel for purfling.
I want one.

Thanks David, I'm putting this tool on my list of have to have and want future tools.
I also need to get a new dremel. Mine is almost 25 years old and the variable speed switch doesn't want to hold a speed.
