I finished my first arm bevel and I am please with how it came out. I followed Kent Averett's method from Robbie O'Brien's website. I might have made it a little longer, but there is always next time. |

Thanks guys. I guess I can follow instructions... BTW - I meant to say Everett not Averett. I am also pleased that my miters came out pretty good. This build has been pretty complex (for me) with the arm bevel and the Florentine cutaway... |

The bevel is really slick but the miters are more impressive to me. Good job ! |

I really admire someone taking on a bevel! So far I just haven’t gotten up the nerve. Great job and fine work there! |

Hey Steve, that turned out really great. I was going to attempt one on my latest build but time was tight on my completion date I had set for myself so it is a future project. Is this build sold yet? |

It looks great, Steve. Are the bevel and the bindings the same wood species? The transition in looks good in that pic I assume the transition out is just as nice. It's something I want to do as well. |

Tim - this build is not sold. I'm just building it because I want to... Brad- the binding and the bevel are both indian rosewood. |
