Tonight was pretty much a replay of last night on the drill press.
I sanded a little at a time, checking against the lines I measured and drew.
As was the case yesterday, I finished up by hand-sanding with some sand paper wrapped around a pipe.
Right now the curves seem a little bit deeper and steeper than those on droid #1, but that may be because I haven't trimmed the 3 degree angles off the top surface and front face. Time will tell.

Hi Victor, have you invested in a Sear's Belt-disc sander yet? Truly the tool of the Jedi woodworker. YOu can really fine tune and be very precise with your finished work. A table saw and chop saw are great, but a belt-disc sander really gives you the precision this project requires. I think they are like $80-90. You will wonder how you lived without one.

Hi Alan,
No, I never did get around to getting the belt sander you recommended. I guess I like making my life more difficult than it otherwise needs to be.
