These were a little fussy to make using band saw, rasps and sandpaper. Now I want to make several and want to go a little faster and with more consistency. No access to CNC and I don't want to outsource it. Looks like a job for template routing, something I have not done.
So I'm thinking to rough out on the band saw then route to a pattern.
Router table?
Pattern material?
Bit that won't bite the end grain?
The pattern can have a pin to locate the stock to it but then how to secure it?
