Popular Post Denny Knappen Posted October 15, 2019 Popular Post Report Share Posted October 15, 2019 These are a special request by a friend. The pattern is by Sheila Landry and purchased from her site. The wood is 1/2" Ash approximately 8" x 10" and backed with 1/8" Baltic Birch plywood stained with Samen Emerald. I used FD UR #1 and #3 blades cut on an EX 21. The finish is spray Lacquer Clear Semi Gloss.

heppnerguy Posted October 15, 2019 Report Share Posted October 15, 2019 Those plaques are really done nicely. Sheila has some really nice, creative patterns. I have been eyeing these also. Not sure I am ready for them at this time. Thanks for rattling my memory awake. The green background is perfect for this project.

I used the EX 21 with the head tilted 3 1/2 degrees to the right and cut clockwise. This works for me using 1/2" stock and FD UR #3 blades. I did several test cuts until I got the right set back. It is set back about 1/4". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes,I think the grain in the ash high lights the golfers swing and the grain showing in the birch gives the photo a distance view. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
