new2woodwrk Posted February 3, 2018 Report Share Posted February 3, 2018 (edited) Thanks to every one for the help and guidance - you're a great bunch of people! Here is my first Fretwork! Done on my Wen (with my new technique for setting the blade, worked great!): I did it out of 3/4 Ply with #3 FD, took 2 blades to finish. I think I can do it out of pine now. Maybe try it again soon - Heck I'm amazed I can even tell what it is LOL! Also got a few Silhouettes and portraits - not sure what I'll do with them yet if anything Edited February 4, 2018 by new2woodwrk meflick, Birchbark, Fab4 and 6 others 9 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
