If I'm going to cut something that will have lots of whiskers on the back, I will shellac the wood. A light coating on each side is good, but, not needed. You only have to shellac the back side, as that is the side that will splinter. I only have to shellac the back if I'm cutting thin or brittle stock, and I use Flying Dutchman blades, the scroll reverse or ultra reverse type.

Thanks Guys

 

LarB now you have to get a pencil torch and learn how to burn off the fuzzies. 

 Oooh good, another item on my wish list ;-)

 

Thanks Len, I'll take your suggestion on board too!

 

The 'cake stand' is finished and it held up the (home-made) cake quite well - due to it being slightly 'top heavy' needed to hold the legs while cutting a slice or two or three!! next time I'll shorten the legs or bake a smaller cake :lol: and yes need to practice icing techniques too!! (pic is in the gallery)

 

I adopted the pattern from 'The Berry Collection' - Music Boxes.

 

 

Cheers
