I made the top and bottom cuts on the 6 pieces that comprise the front arch. One of the pieces, layer 2, got caught in the bit and broke-up. Not sure I can salvage it, but I'll see. If not, I'll make another. The layers cut consistently as I had hoped so will only require a good sanding to make them look great. Each of them still needs to be trimmed to length and the two top [front] pieces need to be routered to make the moulding. Behind these arch layers on the clock case hood will be slats that will be mitered and rabbeted into the front and back arch, with the back arch being what you will see from behind. It should look good although I don't know anyone tall enough to see my craftsmanship. I've included a number of photos in the slideshow below. Enjoy!
