Casette idea
Would bonding thin aluminum sheets to both sides on a sheet of Masonite work well enough to use for casettes? I think the thickness would end up around 3/16 or 7/32ish.
I was thinking this could be a cheap alterative to solid alu sheets while both being flexible and smooth.
Thoughts.... ??

Ok I understand you problem better now with that pic. I guess I'm surprised that you get vertical deflection with those center posts there. Do you think adding an addition horizontal tube under the frame would prevent the deflection you are seeing? It looks like you could weld a 2 x 2 tube that woul...

Sweet. Definitely post some pics. I would be very interested in your set up. If it works it would save me buying 2 tools... Seriously looking at the craftsman 12 inch band saw for $359. 7 inch re-saw height would handle a cores up to 165ish in width. I seriously doubt I would make any cores that big...

I was also thinking about profiling with a band saw vertically. Does anyone think making a negative jig and running the core and the jig past the band would work. Obviously there needs to be a fence also. Really like a planer crib just in the vertical plane. Like what dynastar does as mentioned abov...

I went with 14 based on available material and after consulting here and with a friend who know a lot about this stuff. Plus having a bit more room that a bit to little room is probably better since there is a bunch of stuff that will need to fit in there. Plus if it is too big I can always shim eve...

strengthening MDF molds
I am up to the point of thinking about designing my molds. I have read many thread on here and could not find what I am looking for. Has anyone played around with sealing the cut MDF surfaces with thinned wood glue? Would this create a stronger mold or is this overkill? I found this discussion that ...
