Stapled with 9/16 staples with my battery powered stapler.Two hours to cut 100 pieces.I was pushing and cutting fast following a ink pen thin line and broke 4 blades.That's a rareity for me to break blades but it was started late in the da and i wanted to finish today. lawson56 1 Quote
DWSUDEKUM Posted February 26, 2015 Report Posted February 26, 2015 (edited) Kevin nice job my friend. It is time to be nice to the trees and the environment though. You might want to make a tracing template for both the big and the small Ankh's. That way you would not have to print out a pattern each time you wanted to make one just trace it on to your blank. Just a thought. Thanks for sharing these with us. DW Edited February 26, 2015 by DWSUDEKUM Quote

wombatie Posted February 26, 2015 Report Posted February 26, 2015 I think you should take a short rest now before the next order comes in. Because I'm guessin' that she will want some more. Marg Quote

Kepy Posted February 26, 2015 Report Posted February 26, 2015 If you would alternate the pattern up and down and adjust them up and down, you could get more pieces out of a smaller piece of wood. Birchbark 1 Quote
amazingkevin Posted February 26, 2015 Author Report Posted February 26, 2015 Amazing cutting with a #7 blade - Sharp corners nice curvers - How is your back and eyes?? Thank's, the sharp corners i pull or push hard on the back of the blade to get it that way before i make the turn .It heats up the blade a lot and contributes to my breakage while cutting fast but oh well. When you in the mood to go fast you pay!I'm always concscious of my posture as i don't want a sore back.But the eye's are another story. I'm changing glasses so much to do this and that they hurt at times. Quote
amazingkevin Posted February 26, 2015 Author Report Posted February 26, 2015 I think you should take a short rest now before the next order comes in. Because I'm guessin' that she will want some more. Marg That would be nice .but a bigger order ! Quote
amazingkevin Posted February 26, 2015 Author Report Posted February 26, 2015 They look Great Kevin.And breaking blades I know what ya mean,I don't normanly break to many myself. When i break one i can't remember how long ago it's been since i broke the last one. Quote

penquin Posted February 26, 2015 Report Posted February 26, 2015 WOW that is one huge job. Doing a 100 in 2 hours and only 4 blades is great. This is one way to use up all the left over small parts you have around of 1/8 wood. Thanks for showing us all of this. Go have a cold one now that you got them done. You deserve it. jim penquin amazingkevin 1 Quote
ike Posted February 26, 2015 Report Posted February 26, 2015 You do good work. I bet you are tired of them by the time you get them done,probably dreaming about them every night. Quote
