new2woodwrk Posted February 20, 2018 Report Share Posted February 20, 2018 Going back and forth between trying to get my taxes entered and scrolling, I was able to cut a few items: The Lighthouse - needs a few more cuts and sanding and finishing. But a question - there are little "lines" (you may see them) should they be cut with a bigger blade to stand out more? Wife cut a new rim for the plates (2 stacked) - she doesn't like them, but I think they're fine And the waste from the rim we're turning into Plate stands Feel free to critique with advice and tips Thanks in advance SCROLLSAW703, lawson56, Lucky2 and 5 others 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan Posted February 20, 2018 Report Share Posted February 20, 2018 Do taxes or scroll... tough call. As for the lines (veining) if they don't stand out enough you can use a thicker blade or cut along the veining to make it thicker. To get rid of the "fuzzies" I just run a torch over them to singe them, but don't burn the project. Or you can sand them. If you use a reverse toothed blade you will reduce the fuzzy stuff. new2woodwrk and OCtoolguy 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WayneMahler Posted February 20, 2018 Report Share Posted February 20, 2018 Veining cuts will stand out once finished. I cut mine with what ever blade I normally cut the pattern with. I do stain most of my work and that enhances those cuts. NC Scroller, OCtoolguy and new2woodwrk 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
