Popular Post Blaughn Posted March 31, 2019 Popular Post Report Share Posted March 31, 2019 I made a plaque similar to this and cut in it Jatoba (AKA Brazilian Cherry). That was the only wood strong enough to cut without losing the cut-outs. I succeeded on the first attempt. I failed on the next 2 attempts and wore out 2 band saw blades re-sawing the Jatoba. I quit scrolling for months out of frustration. I redesigned the plaque with larger letters and cut it in real cherry. I made it through, on the first try, using the Flying Dutchman Ultra Reverse #1 blades. I am pumped!! This plaque is 15.5 x 9.5. I will finish it with Watco Danish Oil.

And I'm so glad you posted this comment about how strong cherry is, This is just a bit less than 1/2". It was resawn from four-quarter lumber and thickness planed before edge jointing.

Bill WIlson Posted March 31, 2019 Report Share Posted March 31, 2019 Very nice. I have a t-short with that scripture verse on it. It was the theme one summer, at the church camp my daughters attended, in their youth. Blaughn 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
