Popular Post Old Joe Posted February 6, 2019 Popular Post Report Posted February 6, 2019 (edited) Being a native Marylander I had to make this when I saw it in the Fall 2018 SSW&C Magazine. I tortured myself by using a piece of true 3/4” Purple Heart that I had around. That is not the easiest wood to scroll, especially when it’s that thick.Hard on blades! I just finished cutting it, now comes more “fun” with a lot of hand sanding. Got Old Bay? Edited February 6, 2019 by Old Joe Ptofimpact, meflick, Birchbark and 9 others 12 Quote
rjR Posted February 6, 2019 Report Posted February 6, 2019 Nice cutting. of an "old CRAB"--! Without clear tape and using old candles for a blade lube; my blade life would be less than 1/6th of what I get from them. Old Joe 1 Quote
Scrappile Posted February 6, 2019 Report Posted February 6, 2019 I think that is an awesome cutting, may have to drag out the mag and do it. My wife loves crab, so much so that is what I gave her for a Christmas present a couple years ago. The butcher thought it was a crazy Christmas present, but my wife loved it. heppnerguy and Old Joe 2 Quote
wombatie Posted February 6, 2019 Report Posted February 6, 2019 It looks great and very unusual. Well done. Marg Quote
heppnerguy Posted February 6, 2019 Report Posted February 6, 2019 I too am a big fan of crab. I worked 34 years in the seafood business. Dungeness crab is probably my #2 most favorite food, followed by razor clams. A nice piece, I have been eyeing it to also cut. You have your work cut out with the sanding on this wood Dick heppnerguy Quote

Dave Monk Posted February 7, 2019 Report Posted February 7, 2019 That came out great. I think my wife would take it wrong if I cut one for her. Tomanydogs and amazingkevin 1 1 Quote
Rockytime Posted February 7, 2019 Report Posted February 7, 2019 My wife wouldn't know what it is being an inlander from Alberta, Canada. As a kid i don't ever remember having sea food of any kind at home. Your cutting great though! amazingkevin 1 Quote
