Right then, having given Frogsider, the advice to cut his losses and start again, guess what I've done!

The Board now has an extra laminate of Alec Jordan's finest packing case which comes in at a thickish 4mm so we are now up to 13/14mm which will just have to do. I'll attack it with a plane in a couple of days and try to get some kind of profile into it, which should at least lighten it up.

The case has been cut open with the pull saw and widened to suit. Its now all glued up. I took the opportunity to try a few different pivot points to try to get the optimum position and I'm fairly happy with  the way things are now.
