Popular Post RabidAlien Posted February 16, 2020 Popular Post Report Share Posted February 16, 2020 (edited) Pattern by @grampa from our Pattern Library. Looking forward to cutting many more of his patterns!!! Stack-cut two at once, and imported the pattern into Inkscape to do a bit of dynamic offset to create a backer for the piece. They're stained and currently drying in the garage (my wife gave me a long-suffering look as I wandered out into the garage at 11:30pm to do some final 320-grit sanding and staining). Wolf-dreamcatchers were cut out of 3/8" BB ply (I believe....found a couple of scrap pieces that were large enough so I didn't break into a fresh sheet) and stained with Minwax "Classic Grey" (heh....grey wolves?), backers are 1" whiteboard from Lowes and stained with Minwax "Honey". REALLY looking forward to putting them together tomorrow!!!! Well...later today, I guess.

Can't remember which page, I was just scrolling through all the offerings and ended up downloading a good dozen or so patterns.

heppnerguy Posted February 17, 2020 Report Share Posted February 17, 2020 well done. I like the darker background. It makes things stand out a lot better. Way to go Dick heppnerguy RabidAlien 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rockytime Posted February 17, 2020 Report Share Posted February 17, 2020 Both are very nice but I prefer the darker background. RabidAlien 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think its just the overhead lighting. One of the backers was a tad darker (different wood, maybe?), but I used the same Honey stain on both. My overhead lights were reflecting off the one on the left a bit more, I think. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
