We were experimenting with making wooden combs. After several prototypes I finally decided on a design and worked with our local leather shop to make leather sleeves for them. I'm super excited to say the experiment was a success!

  • They're awesome! Almost too beautiful to use!

  • These are absolutely top quality! These would be perfect to use up some of my scrap hardwoods. I assume you used a box joint jig for table saw? But did you just sand in the points by hand?

    • Yes I made a box joint jig for the table saw and created a first cut template. I got an old 1x42" sander to sand between the teeth and shape the points. I used the ryobi benchtop sander to shape the curves.

    • I've been wanting to make a box joint jig and/or spline joint jig for table saw since I got it, just havent gotten around to it yet lol.. Im thinking these would make some cool little gifts for my grooms men.. Thanks for the idea Tjbaum.
