Ken O Posted May 14, 2015 Report Share Posted May 14, 2015 A guy in Georgia requested a cut out of one of their club members model boats. The gentleman passed away over the winter and they wanted to make a memorial trophy using a picture of one of his boats. They sent me a few pictures I could pick from and this is what I ended up with. It will be mounted on a large piece of Mahogany with a glass plaque in front. I wanted to do it out of solid Maple but I put a 1/8 in birch ply on top and a scrap piece on the bottom just because I knew I was going super tiny in this one. If I broke the maple then I still would have the plywood. I was very lucky and didn't break anything and even the scrap piece on the bottom can be used. I think they will like it. Some of the things you can do with these saws are amazing. Ken Lucky2, amazingkevin and lawson56 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
