I would like anyone who has looking at this I am getting read to try this Anyone else ging any thougth to this project Would any one have any input I have cut the wedges Just looking for Ideas Paul
Here's a pix of where I am talking about, sorry about my drawing, an artist I am not.... Did you put yours together yet? I had problems because I made the cut where the arrow is pointing too narrow, should cut a bit wider, and not use a 2X4 that had some knots......what size board did you use.

Good luck with your re cut........Yea time for DWTS no shop tonight....

Our Club used to have a Buss trip from Long Island Every year to the show. That was a lot of fun! I always went with a pocket full of cash to buy wood and tools. Sadly we have not done it for many years now. The vendors can't make any money between travel, booth fees, and hotels.
