The ReBuilding Center | Quality Used Building and Remodeling Materials | Portland OR Celtic knot tutorial - WoodworkersZone WoodWiki From WoodworkersZone WoodWiki Created by EZ Wood This isn't rocket science but some folks asked how to do Celtic rings/knots so, here is a short tutorial. You can do this a number of different ways and on various projects. Get your self a hunk of wood and square it up on the sides and the ends. The next part is about cutting the slots for ring material. Set you miter gauge for the desired angle (I use 25-35 degree cuts) and set your miter gauge stop. Slap your blank in place, clamp and cut. Now you'll need your ring material. Cut the ring material to the correct length and glue it in the blank. Clean-up any overhang with a chisel or block plane. You are now going to repeat the cut, glue, and clean-up on the other 3 sides. When your done with all 4 sides you'll have a square block that looks like the picture below. Lastly some finished stuff with Celtic Rings/Knots: A note about the 25-35 degree angle which the blank is cut and the insets are glued in: This pic shows 4 screwdriver handles.
