    Default First time tiling on Desktop

    I think I know the answer, but I want to reassure myself. I'll be tiling in the "y" axis with 3 tiles. I will be using 3 different bits on the project. Do I make all of the cuts on each tile? Pocket, V-Carve and profile on T1 then move my material and do the same on T2, then T3? Thanks in advance.

    It's more time consuming with the changes of the bits, BUT less chance of a screwup too.
    That's the way I would do it.
    I'd definitely skim spoilboard first, and make Very sure the material is firmly Flat against spoilboard each time I moved material accurately.

    Thanks Scott,
    I just surfaced my spoilboard and using a roller stand. I also plan to use indexing dowels.
