Yes, I tried that for one edge. It was hard to tell how much it helped. Basically the layers of bifi tape and aluminum tape not only make it tougher to cut through; they also make the geometry a bit fuzzy. Also I don’t have a straight edge 9’ long (for the triangle diagonals) — maybe I just need to sacrifice a plywood sheet, and bisect it along the diagonal. The jig towards the bottom here: https://www.dropbox.com/sh/3ynyuciaf50we62/AADklGZjlF0qh_854QghvZY1a?dl=0&preview=hexayurt+instructions+v11.pdf <https://www.dropbox.com/sh/3ynyuciaf50we62/AADklGZjlF0qh_854QghvZY1a?dl=0&preview=hexayurt+instructions+v11.pdf> looks interesting and robust. Alas, for my 5-1/2 yurt design, I need no less than 11 different beveling angles. I’ve already made all the jigs for the sliding putty knife method. I don’t fancy making 11 new jigs. But maybe I’ll make one, to try it out. Bob -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "hexayurt" group.
