rjones Posted July 22, 2016 Report Share Posted July 22, 2016 Took birchbarks awesome pattern, and tried spiral blades for the first time. Must say I am not a big fan of spiral blades at this time, but will surely break down and try again in the future. All comments welcome.

ike Posted July 22, 2016 Report Share Posted July 22, 2016 I tried them a couple of time and didn't feel any better after the second time and gave all my spiral blades away. IKE Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scrappile Posted July 22, 2016 Report Share Posted July 22, 2016 Great cutting. Keep at the spirals, but also keep up with the flat blades. They both have their place. I really like that pattern. Hope to give it a try someday. Scrolling Steve 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DWSUDEKUM Posted July 23, 2016 Report Share Posted July 23, 2016 Not bad at all for a first go with spirals. I have found that they like most things need practice before folks get good using them. Thanks for sharing this with us. DW Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CharleyL Posted July 23, 2016 Report Share Posted July 23, 2016 I can't do a whole project with them, but in certain tight areas I do well with spiral blades. I generally don't like them for most uses though. Charley danny 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob Posted July 23, 2016 Report Share Posted July 23, 2016 I think that is actually Sasho's pattern aka Neptun. Rob neptun and New Guy 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rjones Posted July 23, 2016 Author Report Share Posted July 23, 2016 I think that is actually Sasho's pattern aka Neptun. Rob My apologizes to all. This is a pattern by Neptune. Sorry for the mistake and misrepresentation. neptun 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Denny Knappen Posted July 23, 2016 Report Share Posted July 23, 2016 A well done pattern and cutting. Spirals do have their place and it does take time and practise. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
heppnerguy Posted July 24, 2016 Report Share Posted July 24, 2016 I too had he same feelings as I cut my first couple of spirals but I have to say that I am glad that I gave it more chances as I am just now beginning to understand that some day I too just might have those dreaded spirit mastered. Who knows. I still can't imagine that I will ever abandon my straight blades. The more versatile one can be, the more successful they can be. I guess that is why scrolling is an ever learning process Dick heppnerguy rjones 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
