Day 11 - Sanding the sides and gluing the kerfing

I sanded the insides of the sides.

I clamped the sides to the mold with expanding clamps.

I marked the edges of the sides with chalk.

I sanded the edges on a radiused disk until all the chalk was gone and then repeated for the other side. It took about 30-40 minutes of sanding per side.

I cut the kerfing to size and put glue on it and clamped it to the sides.

I put the rosette through the thinning machine

I mixed some rosewood sawdust into clear epoxy.

I pushed the sawdust and epoxy mix into the gaps between the rosette pieces using a toothpick and an air compressor.

When the epoxy had dried, I passed the rosette through the thinning machine again.
