Do you mean this one? If so then it's not a HB 360, just a simple cut with a router

 

[Steve Busey]

The one I see doesn't look like a real 360 HB to me, just a segmented blank that looks HB from 2 sides. Each color is a solid zigzag cut segment, glued to another solid zigzag cut. Nice looking blank, but not a 360HB.



(Oops, Skippy beat me to it...)

Not a herringbone. I have made a attachment for my laser to cut herringbone patterns and it works great to.

Constant, that's cheating!!!!:biggrin:

That's the one!

May not be a true 360, but to the untrained eye, I don't think they would see a hundred dollar difference.

 

[Russell Eaton]

It's only cheating because we all don't have one..... LOL

not bad for 7.50!

May be so but I have put the time and effort into the tooling and the result is the same.
It works with a vacuum - Rotary vacuum attachment.

I have an original. I will not settle for any thing else, if I decide to make another I'll get it from Neil.

I am not selling it so don't worry. I have also made them by hand no big deal.

Not the 360 Herringbone

Hey guys - I come to the forum every couple of weeks and do a search to see what's mentioned in regard to WoodTurningz and see if a response from us is required.

I saw this post - and need to mention that before tonight I've never seen the 360 HB that you guys have been discussing on here. We asked our manufacturer to make a new, unique laminate that we could offer at a fair price. Outside of this we had no other input into this blank and certainly did not give direction to duplicate the 360 HB design. These are single cut laminations that have been done on a custom router - While it might look like the HB pattern, it's only one 2 sides and part of this disappears as the pen is turned down anyways.

Just wanted to shed some light on this.

Thanks!
