Popular Post John B Posted May 26, 2019 Popular Post Report Posted May 26, 2019 G'day all, I have just completed this piece by Sam Custodio. It took some time, as I only cut it for about 1/4 - 1/2 an hour at a time between doing other jobs in the shed. This was a real challenge. I stack cut 2 from 4mm Hoop Pine ply, backed with 3mm MDF. 2 coats of 30% gloss lacquer. I am altering the wording on the other one, will post a pic when it's done. Frame pine stained and lacquered with Automotive gloss clear. I used FD New Spiral #1 and FDUR #2 It is 530mm x 300mm I don't mind admitting that I spilled a bit of sweat over this.

John B Posted May 27, 2019 Author Report Posted May 27, 2019 Thank you everyone for your kind words. I am never really sure how a piece will look myself, until I have it cut, polished and in a frame. I am pleased with this one. I have cut another pattern by Sam, an Indian motorcycle. I think I'll find something a little more simple for my next few tasks, maybe just some more puzzles. Quote
Charlie E Posted May 27, 2019 Report Posted May 27, 2019 That looks so good. Great job. That would look so cool in the service department of a car dealership. John B 1 Quote
