How did you make that cut? I've never been brave enough to try scarfing.

Iv'e used a skillsaw jig. Belt sander plane combo, just get some scraps and practice kinda like birdsmouth shafts, fun when you get it right.

Just a low angle block plane. The sharper the better. Its amazingly simple. 8)

I'll be watching this one for sure. Had to take a small break from mine for school, but should be back at it on Monday.
I wish my scarf bevels looked that nice. Ended up having to finish mine with the belt sander.

Yeah I checked out the thread for your Kaholo. Looks like you are doing a great job to me!!
Sweet to have someone to compare notes with. I really liked that paddle you made... might be stealing a few of those ideas! :wink:
