    in compund cutting you can take a square piece of material and cut a design on one side. Reassmble the wood, tape it together and turn it over, Now cut on the second side,
    The result is a 3D image, sometimes they are shapes like chess pieces other times the images can be totally unrelated.

      I had considered useing a hot glue gun but I like to be able to reuse some of the bigger waste pieces. Also when I use brads and they extend through the bottom piece I am always carefull to take a small hammer and tap the points back up flush with the bottom piece so I do not scratch the table.

      I use a pin nailer in the waste areas. The brad and pin nail guns are a wonderful thing.

      Good idea. I’ll have to try that when I get to the point of stack cutting. 👍
