Nice one, Ray. The lifelong trekkie in this house has just deman... requested I mean, that I cut it for her, but she says I should make the ear a bit longer. Who am I to argue, she's the bos... the trekkie, in this house.

Ours is not to question "Why?". Ours is but to do or fry.

If you can, post a photo of your finished project.

O/H and her two trekkie friends want copies so I had a practice on what I thought was MDF, and which turned out to be thick hardboard. Made a mistook at the bottom of the ear but I don't think it spoiled it.
Thanks Ray.

Martin.

Looks like a nice, clean cutting to me. Is that hardboard hard to cut?

Easy to cut but it was very dusty stuff, Ray. My mother had used it for decades for painting on so it was contaminated with all sorts. I've left the garage doors open for an hour or two to let the fibres blow away. I'm glad  I have a sucker rather than a blower on the saw.
