kmmcrafts Posted June 4, 2020 Report Share Posted June 4, 2020 (edited) Cut this puzzle today, dang near took a dozen blades and way too long to cut. Lesson learned puzzles from hickory is not a good time in the shop. Probably said too many choice words in the process too.

kywoodmaster Posted June 4, 2020 Report Share Posted June 4, 2020 Hickory just slightly less hard that carbon steel I think. kmmcrafts 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rockytime Posted June 5, 2020 Report Share Posted June 5, 2020 When I was a kid I was always breaking hockey sticks. My father had one made from hickory. Never had a broken stick again! kmmcrafts, GrampaJim and Badgerboy 1 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's on Scotts site.. called "Big Rig" also another called "Trucker"... and one called "CabOver".. I've cut the trucker one a couple times and it's more cutting than this bigrig one.. Have not purchased the Cabover one yet but its on my list for next time.. They are all in the transportation section.. https://woodcraftbyscott.com/collections/scroll-saw-patterns/products/puzzle-patterns-vehicles-sports-musical-instruments Dave Monk 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
