Well, I have the day off today so I thought I would put it to good use. I borrowed the circular saw from work and, with the two sheets of plywood clamped together, began to make some rough cuts to get the shape started. Obviously, only so much I could accomplish with that so then I broke out the Dremel to do some finer work. The shape is still very rough so I've got some sanding ahead of me to refine everything - especially all the curves.
With the shape set I put down a solid layer of wood glue and got it clamped up for the afternoon. Sadly, didn't have as many clamps as I needed so I've got some bag clips on there to help keep it together... Note to self, buy more clamps! Also a weight and a growler (full of water) set in the middle just to keep the pressure all over. Glue claims it'll be dry in 30min but I'm thinking i'll give it a couple hours and then start the sanding!
