LarryEA Posted January 9, 2015 Author Report Share Posted January 9, 2015 Larry, you did a fantastic job on that piece. I really like Kerry's patterns. They are realistic & very precise. Many holes to cut, but, worth every minute of time. I can't imagine how slow it must have been, cutting it & how many blades did you have to use? Well worth it though. Thanks for letting us enjoy it. Take Care Perk, there was a couple times I almost ruined it in the early cutting stage. Thats when I was doing the whiskers. I needed thin blades but thin ones had a problem cutting a straight line on 3/4 wood. I used a lot of blades on the face. After that, it was easy cutting.

LarryEA Posted January 12, 2015 Author Report Share Posted January 12, 2015 I didn't count the holes but this pattern is the most holes I've threaded a blade thru. SUper thanks to all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tdub4ever Posted January 12, 2015 Report Share Posted January 12, 2015 Awesome work Larry! I bet it wasn't an easy job, cutting it in 3/4" wood. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bendita Posted January 12, 2015 Report Share Posted January 12, 2015 Very pretty Larry nice cut but why did you use 3/4 rather then the recommended 1/8 b/b? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LarryEA Posted January 12, 2015 Author Report Share Posted January 12, 2015 (edited) Very pretty Larry nice cut but why did you use 3/4 rather then the recommended 1/8 b/b? Excellent question. Best answer I have is: 1) I have a big stack of 1" wood. Maple,Cherry,Oak, Birch,...etc, etc. and not a lot of BB or Lauan 2) Not good at and don't like making frames for 1/8" b/b So here is an opportunity to educate me... Funny, I like working with b/b because I can stack and get + for one cut. I Edited January 12, 2015 by LarryEA Bendita 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
