Popular Post AkJim Posted February 18, 2019 Popular Post Report Share Posted February 18, 2019 I’m not real happy with it but it was good practice. i was doing good on 1/4” plywood so I thought I would try real wood. When I was cutting the wheels the blade seemed to have a mind of its own, sometimes it followed the grain. It was made from 3/4” cabinet door. I’m not sure what kind of wood it is but it’s pretty hard jollyred, Rob, RabidAlien and 10 others 13 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scrappile Posted February 18, 2019 Report Share Posted February 18, 2019 Did you switch blades when you went to thicker wood? I've been scrolling for some time, and I still find that I am switching to different types of blades often, still experimenting. The point I am trying to make is, do not hesitate to try different blades for different things. Switching blade is easy and only take a little time. The hardest part if remembering which blade worked the best for what. I am not good at taking/keeping notes! You did a good job on this one, keep on, keep practicing..

AkJim Posted February 18, 2019 Author Report Share Posted February 18, 2019 I did switch blades, most of it was done with a #7 Olson but the letters I went to a small blade. thanks for the comment Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gordster Posted February 19, 2019 Report Share Posted February 19, 2019 You did good .I cut that one before and it is not an overly easy cut. 3/4 wood especially if hardwood takes a little getting used to. If your blade is wandering,possible too little tension or bigger blade is needed.keep up the good work. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
