I have worked on this very simple piece for most of today trying pretty much everything I can think of to get this to the point of usability but so far no go.
This is a wine bottle balancer which will be carved from oak or walnut with a brass plaque embedded in it.
I want all of the edges to be filleted, except for the whole of the pointy end that is the base. The fillets will be a little less that an eighth of an inch, probably 0.1".
I am totally uninterested in correcting this piece. I just have to know what is the proper method of creating it? Obviously the origianal block of wood will be larger than the finished product. The balancer is 9 by 2 by 1 inches thick. The product will be cut from a larger piece with several other copies. There will be at lease 2 inches around all perimeters for bridges or tabs connected to the leftover material to be cut away later.
I hope that my explanation is complete and I look forward to a solution that just isn't contained in my head.
Thanks in advance!
Gary
