Popular Post Old Joe Posted October 10, 2018 Popular Post Report Posted October 10, 2018 I just finished this Alex Fox pattern. BB with natural oil mounted on Red Oak stained with espresso. This one had some (for me) intense bridging. bobscroll, John B, Phantom Scroller and 17 others 17 3 Quote

Old Joe Posted October 11, 2018 Author Report Posted October 11, 2018 Honestly, this wasn’t a very relaxing project. I changed blades often, and I found the regular Flying Dutchman scroll reverse #1 easier to get along with than the Ultra Reverse, or the Bear Woods Pégas Modified Geometry blades. I did use some 2/0s on a few of the tight cuts. But removing the tape and pattern was gut wrenching! Also, I wanted to share with you all that I have been buying all of my Baltic Birch in 5’x5’ sheets at a local exotic lumber yard. It’s a fraction of the cost from scroll saw supply dealers, and the quality is fantastic. amazingkevin 1 Quote
