Feedback From Our Customers
Just wanted to follow up and let you know that I received my dolphin and turtle inserts (plus a new trim router and bit set) this week and finally got to use them today – your online videos are EXCELLENT! Really appreciate your taking the time to put them out here – made everything so much easier! The results are looking good!
Thanks so much Mark. I’ve heard such good things about your products and I’m eager to get started with my experimenting!
I just wanted to drop you a quick note to let you know how much I enjoy using your butterfly repair kits on my cracked bowls. I recently ordered the 0.9″ template and several different small butterfly packs to try. Outside of me learning not to hit the template with the router bit, it worked great!!! You notice I ordered another 0.9″ as a replacement and a 1.1″ template. I was going to send you some pics of the bowls I did to let you know how much I enjoyed it and the great outcome on the first try. Your video on the installation was very helpful too.
Thank you very much, I found Trent’s web site and the vise. BTW, I very much enjoyed your video and you have some wonderful items for sale.
Mark, just wanted to thank you for the YouTube you put on the WoW site. I’ve done quite a few inlays, but some of the suggestions you made will make it go much easier. The blue tape, the method of trimming the corners. the sanding block. Makes me wonder why I didn’t think of some of them. The one other thing that I have done is to glue an inlay to a piece of the template plastic to use as a depth gauge when setting the router for the final cut.Thanks again. You have re-inspired me.
