I came across a tutorial on a segmented eagle and thought I would give it a try. Well I tried 3 times and still not perfect but am using it anyway .I used lamination pro and the tutorial. The first cut is 7/8" wide and cut at 15 deg and every other on is flipped and glued back together to form a zig zag pattern. The next cut is at 25 deg and every other one flipped and glued back together. It is then cut at 35 deg and cut in half and then flip one half and presto you now have an eagle. The head is supposed to be on the bottom of the segments. You are to cut them off and glue them on top. Well mine were all screwed up so I had to make some. I used a 3/4 V router bit and cut strips of maple and ebony and glued them into the V. I have a lot of pictures. The last picture is a laser guide I made up to help line up the cuts. This is one tough feature ring. I have not decided on a shape to put this in but will post again once I decide
