Arrowheads

[Vector01]

I thought I would experiment with my Dewalt. Normally I would cut bb ply with a FD-PSR5 (18 tpi) blade and set my speed to #2. Instead I used a FD-SR5 (13 tpi) and set the speed to #6. I picked a couple of patterns from Sue (Shadylady) to try out. I was expecting to make a mess. Suprisingly even with the coarser blade and higher speed I still had excellent control. I did have one mishap when cutting the mountain detail on the eagle pattern. I didn't apply enough downward pressure on the wood when cutting the finer detail. The chatter/lift from the reverse blade snapped off a piece. The overall sizes are 4"H X 3" W.

Very nice, I have that eagle arrow head on my long list of must cut patterns

If you hadnt of mentioned your 'artistic interpretation' on the mountain detail, we would not have known about it, it looks like its cut just how it was intended to be done.

They look great! I had to look up the pattern to see where the wood snapped off....LOL! No one would have noticed! Nice work and thanks for showing us.

Thanks...I'm down to the wire with what stock I have available to cut. With the holidays coming I won't be restocking for a while As long as I'm cutting I'm happy.
