hawkeye10 Posted October 18, 2016 Report Share Posted October 18, 2016 Don't ask me why I did this but I did make this dumb move. Is there away to fix it? lawson56 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trackman Posted October 18, 2016 Report Share Posted October 18, 2016 Make some sawdust useing same wood than mix with glue. Use a credit card to smooth. When dry sand. Falcon and Scrolling Steve 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Birchbark Posted October 18, 2016 Report Share Posted October 18, 2016 I assume you don't want to glue it. Here's my idea. But stay on the lines this time. Russell Lucky2, Fab4, Scrolling Steve and 4 others 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MTCowpoke22 Posted October 18, 2016 Report Share Posted October 18, 2016 I think I'd do what Russell is suggesting. The sawdust and glue fix might work too, but I'd be concerned about it while finishing cutting out the rest of the picture. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phantom Scroller Posted October 18, 2016 Report Share Posted October 18, 2016 What size blade you using looks like your struggling to stay on track.?? I would do what Russell suggests and modify the pattern slightly and it's sorted. Roly Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LarryEA Posted October 18, 2016 Report Share Posted October 18, 2016 I'm not seeing the problem..... maybe after you cut there is no problem Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WayneMahler Posted October 18, 2016 Report Share Posted October 18, 2016 Looks like Russell is suggesting what is the answer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sparkey Posted October 18, 2016 Report Share Posted October 18, 2016 I would modify it also. That is why I use the FD 3/0 spirals. I can't stay on the lines with a straight blade. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sparkey Posted October 18, 2016 Report Share Posted October 18, 2016 My problem is the guy that got me started had me start with spirals. They were so easy to use because you don't have to turn the wood near as much. You just put pressure the direction you want the blade to cut. I only use straight blades for cutting 3/4" wood. If I am stack cutting 3 pieces of 1/4" plywood I will still use the spiral blade. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lucky2 Posted October 19, 2016 Report Share Posted October 19, 2016 Don, I think Russell has given you the best fix info, I wouldn't try the dust and glue fix for this type of cutting. Len Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lawson56 Posted October 19, 2016 Report Share Posted October 19, 2016 I agree also,I have used the dust glue method,works great in some fixes, With this problem go with Russell's fix. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hawkeye10 Posted October 19, 2016 Author Report Share Posted October 19, 2016 Repair update!!!!!! Well I used Russell's ""Birchbark"" suggestion to glue it but I did it a little different. Thanks Russell. You can see in the picture where I continued the cut to the tape. I then glued it together with CA glue. Being that it's going to have a backer board I think it will be okay. After me making such a big BooBoo I am pleased how it turned out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
