....while sanding with my radius dish and didn't check my progress often enough. Too busy listening to a Doug MacLeod cd  Sanded it down to about 1/8" in a couple of places.
Anyhow, I'd sure appreciate some advice on how best to remove the lining without screwing up more. This is a pretty piece of Koa.

you could try your heating blanket on the edge to melt the glue. Also, I use my radius dishes before gluing the kerfed lining so the the edges of the sides are right on with the radius. Then glue in the kerfing a tad proud, and then sand again to make it perfect. I hope this will work |

Just acuz I'm from south of the mason dixon don't mean I'm a DAMHIK 
And don't ask me how I know this either. Thanks for the advice. I wasn't thinking heat...it's just too simple and I was looking to make it harder than that. Tom Armstrong |

Andy, I do the same thing. I was wondering how you can take down the kerfing without taking down the sides with it. If you had done like me and Andy, that would be the side and the kerfing that was taken down. If you have taken the sides down too, then to fix this, just chisel off this kerfing and install new kerfing and leave the kerfing proud to make up some of the lost side. As long as you do not leave the kerfing higher than the binding, you will be okay. Good luck!

Right. I'm now extra double sure that my 'radius sides then glue linings the radius again' approach is the right one for me... |

That's my process also Mattia, I don't even pre cut the sides to rough outline, Just grind them tothe dimensions I want plus a bit on the rim sanding machine...too easy and then you ahve a nice accurate line to attach your kerfed linings. Shane |

You must have your sander motorized huh? If you do, check this out for a way to set up your sanding with stops. The threaded rods have nut that stop the sanding at the desired depth. Then you can listen to the whole Doug MacLeod cd and you'll just waste electricity but you won't burn too much wood.  |

John I don't have a motor, I just spin it like crazy I have a hole in the center of the dish I wish I had your motorized set up, but not enough room for one more motorized tool |

Serge, that is an excellent idea. I will allow access for glue cleaning from all directions. I though about using a lazy susan but I thik I like your idea better. |

John, it was just a glimpse of the idea but maybe you can help me with how to go about doin' this, i have a hard time seeing the radius dish being pushed with go bar rods without affecting the shaft a bit. I guess the shaft would have to go through both plates of the base of the deck, would 1/2" shaft be strong enough or should one aim at 1" shaft? oR MAKE THE DECK REMOVABLE BUT ABLE TO SIT ATOP THE SANDING DISH ? dANG CAP LOCKS!  |
