Old mill

[mikewix]

I just finished this old mill pattern and swear I will never do it again. The siding on the building was so fragile I had to tape the already cut part together to keep it from flopping. I did have one piece brake out and was going to try to put a piece in, but wife says it an old building and could have siding missing, so not sure what I'll do yet. Time to start building frames again, thanks for looking. Mike

Well done, Mike.  Makes a beautiful picture.  Does look very fragile.

To be sure that is a very fragile pattern as was most of Jeff's!  When ever I cut one of his or Charles's patterns I generally had to turn them over and use some scotch tape and tape the waste into position to help with supporting the next cuts. If only cutting one rather than stack cutting, you can place the tape on top.

 You do have a cutting you can be proud of and as far as the piece missing only you will know where it is! Great job!

Great cutting Mike! I looked very carefully and could not find where it was broken, so I wouldn't worry about it.

Beautiful!

 

Way past my patience or accuracy abiities!

That came out great, very nice work. I wouldn't worry about the missing piece either. Only you know where it was.

[Sorcier]

I'd have never though anything about the board that fell off till you brought it up.What the customer doesn't know won't hurt them.This is a real work of art!

[wombatie]

You did a very impressive job of that Mike.  I agree with your wife.  I have that pattern but I have never been game enough to cut it, don't think I ever will.

Beautiful job.  The only problem with cutting one like that is someone will see it and decide they want one also.
