Popular Post derekcohen Posted November 23, 2020 Popular Post Report Share Posted November 23, 2020 I knocked these out today using Lexan. Sort of fun. Sort of interesting. But definitely useful. They are 2 1/4" in the face, and 1 1/2" over the top. Ratios 5:1, 6:1, and 7:1 (I find 8:1 too flat). There is also a saddle square. If there is interest, I'll post a build. Nice items to make as Christmas presents Regards from Perth Derek 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wtnhighlander Posted November 23, 2020 Report Share Posted November 23, 2020 WonderWoman's invisible marking tools? Those are pretty slick, Derek. Nice gifts, for sure. I would like to see how you polish the cut surfaces for clarity. Also, is there a particular type or grade of material that polishes better? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Immortan D Posted November 25, 2020 Report Share Posted November 25, 2020 Nice markers! I once made a similar one but the CA glue didn't last. It came apart after a few uses. So recently I made a new one using wood for the top part and epoxy for glue. I don't think this one is going to come apart, seems pretty sturdy, but time will tell. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stumpnav Posted January 7, 2021 Report Share Posted January 7, 2021 Derek, those things are awesome...thanks for the writeup on your website. Have you used Lexas before or is this a first time project? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
derekcohen Posted January 7, 2021 Author Report Share Posted January 7, 2021 Only make router bases with Lexan before this. Regards from Perth Derek Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
