Bought myself a woodworking router and going to attempt to cut the wooden drums myself to save on paying for it to be done , has any of you guys done it? Any tips ?
also I've found nearby a guy selling solid oak lengths of timber thinking about cutting to size, gluing together waxing/varnishing and filling in the cracks with colour epoxy resin , any good on this too ?
