Don't you just love how a 5 second mistake can wipe out weeks of work? :BangHead: :BangHead: :BangHead: I'm building the "dancing clock" from some plans from Wood Magazine. The edges on the front of the body get a small chamfer (1/8"). Unfortunately, I also routed a chamfer on the face which I wasn't supposed to do.
There's another piece that will be glued to the body, and it's supposed to be flush.
I can probably live with the way it looks (it looks better in the photo BTW), but what I'm really worried about is what happens when I glue this up. The squeeze out will settle nicely in this valley I created, and it's going to be impossible to get it all out. And there's no way I can hand-sand any dried glue either.
I considered running the body through the drum sander a few times and take off 1/8", but that would probably not look great either. Any genius ideas out there? I thought about enlarging the chamfer into a cove using a core box bit after glueup, but that's awfully hard to do with this shape.
I suppose I could fill it with putty and paint it..... :saw:
