HunterJohnson Posted September 7, 2012 Author Report Posted September 7, 2012 I like n8's idea. give yourself some room for error. Kerfs are a pain sometimes. You could also cut two pieces and do a kerf on each piece. Just make sure they fit together good and your cuts are straight. A end to end glue joint is OK on MDF just doesnt work to well on normal woods. I'll be using birch and I'll be glassing the kerfs with resin and mat. If it do have to cut those two pieces in half no biggie because I'll wood glue em together then fiberglass over them. I'll leave some extra room on both ends bc I can just cut an end off Scion tC SQ BuildiPad mini, lots of fabrication, daily drivenFord Explorer C Pillar Wall Build Just a cheap car to destroy with bass
RAM_Designs Posted September 8, 2012 Report Posted September 8, 2012 Easy way to do kerfs is just use a 3.5" radius, which requires 5.5" of length...makes it easy on the head when calculating overall lengths of pieces with kerfs.
