Scribing plywood (Now with more RAD)

[lastlight]

I'm actually going against everyone's better judgement and I'm going to attempt to hand carve idea 1. I'll have pics soon (and maybe tears).

If you scribe the line out and use a small carving tool by hand it might turn out better. using a saw or dremel there is always a better chance to screw up, i speak from personal experience faster is not always better.

Yeah I'm doing it how I feel comfortable doing it. This means many hours and my utility knife =)

Only bad things happen fast, all good things take time.

my experience with actual blades is i end up shredding the good side somehow all the time. tape or not. I'll bet my blade is old and cheap tho.

Or you could just leave the stand as it is and just paint it.

Or just follow your track record.... Sell it and start over

I think this one is a keeper with it built into the walls and all of Bretts hard work. I cant wait to see it all done, got to see the tank before the walls and finishing work and I must say its a BEAST!

I would screw a striaght piece of wood to stand to use as a guide and then use a router and a small bit to carve the lines, the screw holes can easily be filled with wood filler.
Then simply sand it and paint it.
