amazingkevin Posted June 28, 2016 Report Posted June 28, 2016 I forgot all about doing this one and found the pattern today 3/4" 4ply plywood cut with a # 3 scroll reverse blade.I sanded it real good and put oak stain on but didn't like the look so I'll paint it white tomorrow lawson56 and Fish 2 Quote
Lucky2 Posted June 28, 2016 Report Posted June 28, 2016 Kevin, I like the sentiment behind this cutting, but, if that's what it looks like once stained in the second picture. Then I agree, it probably would look better if painted white. It looks to be very blotchy, almost like if the plywood surface was pine. Len amazingkevin 1 Quote

kywoodmaster Posted June 28, 2016 Report Posted June 28, 2016 I agree Kevin. I think paint would look better. That looks like yellow pine plywood, I never was able to get it to take stain. amazingkevin 1 Quote
