Popular Post FrankEV Posted October 12, 2020 Popular Post Report Share Posted October 12, 2020 (edited) This is a Russ Beard Marlin pattern that was slightly modified and resized to suit a standard 11x14 Frame and cut from 5/32" thk Maple solid core ply with a painted 1/8" thk BB ply backer. All cutting was done with Pegas #0 spiral blades Panel finished with multiple coats of clear lacquer. I made a simple Poplar frame stained with Minwax Early American and coated with clear satin polyurethane. If you look close you might see that the backer is painted black behind the Marlin and painted a fairly dark aqua green behind the water area.
