oldhudson Posted February 12, 2016 Report Share Posted February 12, 2016 I made this project for my sweetheart. This is a Steve Good design. I took the liberty of substituting a different font and I cut a shallow mortise in the base so the cutting could be glued into position. The stock is big box cedar left over from a bench I made a couple years ago. The finish is just Watco Natural. I asked for help elsewhere in SSV about the backer and everyone had great info. In the end I found this glittery red foam sheet product (at JoAnn's Fabric) that I thought added some 'bling'. (This was my first project with my new Excalibur 21. What a difference from my old Delta.) Comments and suggestions welcome. Thx for looking and stay warm. bobscroll, ONELUNG, WolfyPete and 2 others 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

heppnerguy Posted February 15, 2016 Report Share Posted February 15, 2016 I have seen this one cut before but I think yours is the finest one yet. You made it a great piece instead of a good piece. I can see great project coming from your posts. Good imagination Dick heppnerguy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
