kmmcrafts Posted February 28, 2018 Report Posted February 28, 2018 (edited) So I ordered some patterns from Scott this morning.. then after packing up my orders and running them to the mail.. I came back to see if I could cut this in 20 minutes like Scott does.. was a little disappointed that it took me 40 minutes instead.. Thought I could cut fast but Scott's got me beat.. Though he is the puzzle man.. I should have sanded the board first as the shelf liner kept lifting.. and doing both the wheels was more like guess work than actual cutting and staying on the line.. The front wheel most of it came up and I was trying to hold it down.. then somehow the blade grabbed the pattern and tore off a big section.. LOL Oh well was certainly fun.. Now I guess I need to get back out and cut the orders that I have instead of playing with puzzles. Edit to add.. I cut this from 3/4" red oak on the Excalibur using a number 3 Pegas MG blade..

Iguanadon Posted February 28, 2018 Report Posted February 28, 2018 Yeah, I'll let you keep thinking I could cut that one in 20 minutes. LOL I've never cut it, and not sure I really want to. ;-) Nicely done Kevin. meflick and kmmcrafts 2 Quote
rjR Posted February 28, 2018 Report Posted February 28, 2018 Nicely cut on a saw testing wood too! I used to have 2 Harley riders in the very close neighborhood; both would have loved this! Quote
new2woodwrk Posted February 28, 2018 Report Posted February 28, 2018 (edited) Nice - we used to have a harley and that would look real nice in our rec room Edited February 28, 2018 by new2woodwrk Quote
Rockytime Posted March 1, 2018 Report Posted March 1, 2018 Reminds me of my 1938 Harley Knuckle Head I had when I was 16. Love the puzzle. Quote
wombatie Posted March 1, 2018 Report Posted March 1, 2018 Looks good. I don't think any of us cold cut that in 20mins. Marg Quote
Lucky2 Posted March 1, 2018 Report Posted March 1, 2018 I like it, I should cut one to match my Harley. I have a 1200cc Sportster, plus a 2013 1400cc Suzuki Intruder with only 13000kms on it. I plan to put a lot of miles on the Suzuki this coming summer,I hope o do a fair amount of touring Canada. And since the Suzuki is so much more dependable then the Harley, it's the bike I'll be using. The Harley is to loud to ride all day long, I would have to wear hearing protection if I rode it all day long. You can hear the Suzuki coming from about a 1/4 mile away,but you'll hear the Harley from about 3 miles away. You might think I'm bs'ing about that, I'm not, it is that loud.I t is that loud for a reason, not just because I like it that loud. Len Quote

penquin Posted March 2, 2018 Report Posted March 2, 2018 Very nice, those wheels look like extra work but it shows nicely. jim penquin Quote
Grasshopper Posted March 3, 2018 Report Posted March 3, 2018 Nice job! I enjoy cutting the Harley signs but using the cocobolo wood is up to $65 a foot. So I have to be really picky on which one to do and to quit giving them away! Quote
rdatelle Posted March 3, 2018 Report Posted March 3, 2018 That came out good even though it took you half a day. LOL. Don't feel bad. No one cuts as fast as Iggy. As long as you had fun cutting it. Sometimes I have trouble with the shelf liner paper lifting but all I do is put a piece of scotch tape over the part that's lifting and off I go. Quote
