- Wow! This project was a challenge! My father-in-law, Steve and I created a dashboard (instrument panel) for his 1939 Jaguar Duke kit car. It's an organic shape with zero corners, no straight lines or references. Fortunately, Steve made a perfect template that fit precisely at the top edge where it mates to the car. He also had perfect dimensions of all the gauges, lights, switches, etc...and their locations. Fun project, but certainly had us scratching our heads! 😆
We used the Shaper Origin to create inlays and to cut odd shaped holes with precise dimensions and locations...but the overall shape of the dash was created old school...bandsaw, belt sander, router and bent laminations made of Walnut. Join us for the build...it turned out epic! And it had to be beautiful to match the incredible leather work...all created by Steve. Check it out!
The Shaper Origin is an incredible machine capable…so much more than I used it here! See more at: shapertools.com
At 6:30 I mention the glue we used for the bent Walnut laminations. Readily available and works great! But, it MUST be above 70° during glue up and cure time! Google search Dap (Weldwood) Plastic Powdered Resin Glue.

Beyond words...amazing work! Love seeing work using Shaper Origin...awesome tool!
It really is a fantastic machine! Thanks for watching
It turned out great very cool car and pictures and videos rarely do it justice
It’s a cool car for sure…the inside smells like leather! 😆
@@ramonartful wahah I bet
Absolutely beautiful motor car -- reminds me of the 1948 Bentley I had many years ago -- sold when I got divorced, along with my 1969 Jaguar XKE 2+2.
Wow…an old Bentley! Thanks for checking out the video 🙏🏼
Looks great, Ramon! Especially the steering column cutout. You did a great job on that as well as everything else. Watching you bend the edge was very informative. And you are right sanding the edge before profile routing makes a big difference. And yes that car is amazing. Thanks for sharing again.
Cool! Thanks a lot for the feedback! We appreciate it.
What an amazing project, Ramon. You and Steve make a great team with the dashboard and Steve's leather work is outstanding. This was a perfect application for the shaper origin. Thanks for taking us along for the ride (I couldn't resist 🙂)
Pun! 😬
It took a bit of head scratching to create the perfect shape. (The top edge has to fit the car). But yeah, Steve’s pattern was spot on! Thanks a lot David!
Wow! Great to see how you've blended Shaper into your working process.
I wish it could have cut the overall shape! 😆 But yeah, Shaper Origin was a huuuuge help with all the instruments!
Ramon , Great job on the woodwork, and outstanding leather work teamed up to made a custom one of a kind showpiece.
Yeah, definitely one of a kind! Thank you tons.

Thanks brother…super challenging but fun project!
@@ramonartful the fun ones are almost always challenging!
Beautiful!!!
Thank you 🙏🏼
Just kept getting better and better. Well done. Shame the shaper origin isn’t supported outside of the US, I’d really like one. Cheers from Australia 🇦🇺
Thank you! And wait…I’m not sure about Australia, but I’m positive they’re beyond the US. Such a cool machine!
Nice work
Much thanks! It was a long but great project. I learned a lot
Very cool episode.
Thank you…much appreciated
Of course the work and workmanship is great. But what caught my “eye” was the family camaraderie. Nice! Genuine family values not the phony stuff from politicians.
Yeah, Steve and I have always got along very well. We have things in common…besides his beautiful daughter! 😆 We both like guns, tools and motorcycles. Thanks for watching!
Epoxy laminate or glue? thanks more awesome content!
I’m not sure I understand…”epoxy laminate or glue?” Thanks
