A nicer looking alternative to diamond slicer stickers.

[NUMBnS1L3NT]

Kamui makes a sticker kit that will devide your diamond sight up into smaller increments which is very useful but, in my opinion, is not the best looking thing to stick onto your rails. I am a woodworker/ furniture maker so naturally I added 72 quilted maple wood inlays instead. Lol. It was a lot of precise and tedious work but that's the fun part for me. I wouldn't necessarily recommend it to anyone who is not an experienced woodworker with the proper tools. You can completely ruin the rails of your table if not done correctly. It was a very fun project that yielded a very useful addition to my table and that has assisted in my learning.

Looks real good. Waaaay better than a sticker.

Beautiful work
for me the .25 /.50./75 marks are not hard to eyeball
but i can see the usefullness of having them marked precisely

Nicely done. I assume a plunge router for the inlays?

Time to get rid of that silly APA sticker though. That really detracts from an otherwise classy setup…

Yes plunge router with a jig i made that rests on the cushions to help with alignment.
Lol yes I still play APA and BCA but agree that sticker needs to go. Haha. Thank you for response.

Looks great. I also like lines at the diamonds - maybe not as bright as this.
