hi, this is my first A.&S. project and my first thing in the sca at all. i am creating a wax tablet out of slate, black wallnut, and some type of cord. so far i have the wood cut down to aproxinate size and the slate half sanded. i still have to do some rounding of the edges on the wood and drill the holes in the slate and wood, then string it together. also... i need to make a stilus...
