Popular Post jbrowning Posted August 10, 2019 Popular Post Report Share Posted August 10, 2019 So this is my first time cutting this pattern. The whiskers are so easy to break. I'm thinking on my next go around I will make them just a little bit wider. I still need to sand and paint or stain this one. This is cut out of 3/4" Poplar and is a Steve Good pattern. Thanks for looking. Jim lawson56, Dave Monk, Brianr24 and 7 others 10 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rockytime Posted August 11, 2019 Report Share Posted August 11, 2019 Very nice cutting. I like it. I buy Poplar at Lowe's or Home Depot. Just bought some today but I only found 1/2" which was what I wanted. However, I did not see 3/4". Did you buy it locally? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John B Posted August 11, 2019 Report Share Posted August 11, 2019 Looks good, Can you cut it the other way on the board, that way the whiskers will be long grain and shouldn't break near as easy. RabidAlien and Hermit 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Les, I can buy both 1/2” and 3/4” poplar and red oak at our local Lowe’s and a Home Depot here in East TN. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jbrowning Posted August 13, 2019 Author Report Share Posted August 13, 2019 Thank you everyone. Les, the Lowes here in Colorado Springs stock the 3/4" thick poplar all the time. Jim Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
amazingkevin Posted August 16, 2019 Report Share Posted August 16, 2019 when ever I can i'll use plastic colored wire (black) for whiskers, livens it up. Good jobs on the felines,lol jbrowning 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jbrowning Posted August 18, 2019 Author Report Share Posted August 18, 2019 Thanks Kevin, I like that idea. I'm guessing you glue them to the back of the piece? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
