The two work mounts will be required for 3 dimensional carving. The master and workplace can be attached to the work mounts by either wood screws or carpenters glue and must be mounted on the same side of the work mount as the threaded T nut. By drilling pilot holes in the work mount the master and workplace can be secured with 1-3/4 inch wood screws. Make sure the heads of the screws are counter-sunk to prevent any interference. When screwing the object to the work mount is not possible or desirable, carpenters wood glue wi!l bond most wood or ceramic type objects. Spread a liberal amount of glue on the work mount. Cut a piece of Brown Kraft paper (shopping bag paper).
Place it on the work mount and apply glue to the paper, Place the master or workpiece on the paper. Allow to dry per directions specified with glue. i ....

To remove the objects all that will be necessary will be to place a sharp chisel or screwdriver between the object and work mount and rap sharply with the palm of your hand. When gluing or screwing the objects to the work mounts, make sure that they are oriented in the same direction, in respect to the work mount, for the sides of the work mount will be used as references when rotating. .......
Secure the master and the workpiece to the front shelf board by screwing the 1-1/2 inch Hex head bolts and washers through t_e front of the shelf board and then intothethreaded "T" nut centered in the work mount, Align the work mounts by placing a straight edge along the top edges of both the master and workpiece work mounts, When the work mounts touch the straight edge at all points tighten the 3/8 bolt in each mount. Insta{t a 3/4 inch router bit and a matching stylus. Set the depth of the stylus to the same height as the bit by using the edge of the front shelf as a guide. ]7
