Nice and tight : ) Wedge glue ups generally have a gap towards the converging area at the tip due to the convergence at the END of the blank. When the convergence is at the End of the blank there is no room to template back with out shaping the nose tip with gaps between the glue lines.
It's a pet peeve I'm kinda anal about. I like the tips converging at the end of the nose tip not beyond, and the ends of the glue lines at the outside corners of the swallows, slightly inwards if there is channels. It's a natural focal point so I like it to flow, when there's a gap or when the wedge is off the corners its like the pink elephant in the room for me. Ok to glance but don't look too long.. lol
Thanks Wayne. I can't wait to try it out. Stuart
