hotshot Posted July 23, 2017 Report Posted July 23, 2017 Well, I wanted to get used to the saw with a Charles Dearing pattern, but my daughter had something very specific in mind. I usually don't do the simple cutout type stuff, but you know, when the daughter asks . . . . I think she wants to paint the whale pink and the rest blue. Who knows. Evidently Vineyard Vines is some clothes company and this Whale is their logo. The wood is 3/4 ply, and using #3 Modified Geometry blades Hawkeye gave me to test. Blades worked good, but the saw is not aggressive how it is currently set. If I did much of this, I would have to adjust for a little more bite. Dave Monk, jbrowning, jollyred and 4 others 7 Quote

dgman Posted July 23, 2017 Report Posted July 23, 2017 Randy, it's a far cry from your intricate coin cutting, but it came out great! Quote
Dave Monk Posted July 23, 2017 Report Posted July 23, 2017 I totally understand why this project got priority. Nice job. Quote
