Post by: Si on December 16, 2018, 11:52:37 AM

Can someone give me a link or links to making ilf wedges? I had one and lost it. Thanks and merry Christmas.

I made a jig to use on the end of my edge sander. Made a couple sets and limbs and decided it wasn't my thing. If I still have the jig, I'll take a pic of it.

Keep in mind the specs Crooked Stic posted are finished limb widths and thicknesses.. The wedge will be thinner after you subtract the glass, taper and any parallel or veneer thicknesses. I copied a ILF wedge jig made by "Trux Turning" and it has worked very well.
