WC is your man. He does a great job with that. Do a search for Banjo, then take a look the strap he made not too long ago. I think you'll find what your looking for.

Howdy WC,I did some practise on scrap over the weekend,starting to get what I want,did you bevel along the plank lines? I was'nt sure if this is right so I did both on my practice go.Thanks for the help. Feathers

The only thing I bevel is a border and if I have broken ends of the planks.
