    That is what I needed. I see you used the carve function. I tried that. If you don't mind can I ask how you got it to curve.
    Again thanks for you help.

    Leo,


    I used a RectangleTool plus the Select Surface Double Down Dome and finished it with the Conform Option

    I Apologise, that I keep bothering you. However I'm trying to understand what you did. It looks like you made the rectangle first, then curved it, then added the imgime and made it conforming.

    Please don't Apologise for asking questions, it's one the best things about this Forum
    I'm just pleased to participate - offering a few ideas or answers now and then.

    I started with your Mpc's cut list of Splines V-60 Degree bit set a .031 for size,
    then added the rectangle at .125 and Select Surface Double Down Dome,
    plus the Conform option at the end --- I also tried a 2 sided version
    in 3/8" and 1/4" stock just to see what in might look like.
