Circle library, angled dividers


otterine

The original inspiration had 18 dividers, but my version has only eight for balance and fit.  I cut the angled details for between the circles from 1 1/2" trailing edge balsa, cutting it down to fit.  I don't usually work in balsa since it damages so easily, but this comes precut at a good angle and you can find it in varying widths.  I basically needed a skeleton for the final finishes.

I covered the sides of the angled inserts with peel and stick wood using additional adhesive just to make sure the bonds will hold over time.  I again used the Elmer's stainable wood glue.  To finish the front edges, I cut shapes from 1/32" basswood to match the laser cut circles.  I think this is a good approximation of the original.

Thank you!! :D

Yes, there's an Elmer's wood glue that claims to be stainable and I have been using it here.  We shall see if it's true to its word!
