I like to pretend that these simple patterns are are my attempt at minimalist chic design but I'm really just a cheapskate. I can not stand to throw away even the smallest scraps of wood. Especially wood as wonderful as this Ambrosia Maple.
I use a 50mm mini frame insert for this pattern. I include the Woodcraft part number with the pattern. You need a 1 7/8'' forstner bit to drill the hole for the frame insert.
You want to cut the outside of this pattern very accurately. The eye will notice flaws in the circle very easily so cut on the line.

Think Safety
Remember to keep the safety of yourself and others in your work shop in your thoughts at all times. Always wear eye and ear protection. Follow all the manufactures warnings that came with your power tools. If I demonstrate something on this web site that you don't feel is safe, don't do it. Your safety is your responsibility. Fingers are handy things, try to keep all of them.
