Benchwork Update: Cut the Risers

The skill saw met the plywood this evening, rendering a handful of very rough cut shapes (see below). This was my first time cutting any sort of shapes with the saw. Overall after I got the hang of it, it didn't seem to go so bad. You can see the mistake I made in the bottom right corner, buuuuuut it will be covered up with scenery eventually anyways.

Since this was my first time not only cutting by designing these types of shapes, I need to do some more trimming tommorow. You can see the areas I need to cut off indicated on the pieces. After that I plan to sand down the very rough edges and overall get them nicened up and ready to work with.
