Popular Post Dave Monk Posted September 1, 2020 Popular Post Report Share Posted September 1, 2020 Decided I needed an updated self portrait. I have a different saw and a lot more wrinkles. This is the first picture I have matted using 1/8" Baltic Birch. I cheated with photo shop and removed some labels that I wouldn't be able to scroll.

spirithorse Posted September 1, 2020 Report Share Posted September 1, 2020 Great pattern and excellent cutting, Dave! You have certainly absorbed knowledge about scrolling like a sponge! Not too much you can't do! Sorry it took me so long to reply to your post here; I was scrutinizing the cutting! LOL God Bless!

FrankEV Posted September 1, 2020 Report Share Posted September 1, 2020 Love It, Love It! Can you add a stubby beard and mustache on to your image and loose the ball cap, I never wear one. You would have me to a tee. Glasses, watch on left wrist,, shorts and about the same build. Kidding but not really...would love the pattern. .

OzarkSawdust Posted September 2, 2020 Report Share Posted September 2, 2020 Awesome job Dave!! Fantastic pattern, cut beautifully. I'd do one of myself...but it would probably break the saw amazingkevin and Dave Monk 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you look close the G blew out on the top label. My gosh it was small. I wasn't about to scrap it because of it. amazingkevin 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wasn't about to scrap it because of it. Ha. Definitely not noticeable. I glued some tiny teeth back in a portrait recently. It hurt my perfectionist pride but like most of our mistakes, known by only us. Again, great job! Dave Monk and amazingkevin 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
