Popular Post amazingkevin Posted October 16, 2020 Popular Post Report Share Posted October 16, 2020 I wanted to eat up some time of idleness and enjoy doing it! From start to finish the horse I knew was not going to go together right. To much pushing makes the blade curve in hard wood.so I just glued it together and put on a corian block. The plaque was a dream to cut. 3 _1/8" pieces of wood was what it consisted of. Soft wood.6"x10.75" meflick, Be_O_Be, heppnerguy and 10 others 13 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Conner likes certain things so base your patterns on something he likes. When I started, If I seen some thing I wanted to cut that influenced my cutting tremendously. Thanks for looking!!!

If i try to separate the pieces they will come off almost but hang up and you could stand the horse up in one piece sideways. new2woodwrk 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rdatelle Posted October 20, 2020 Report Share Posted October 20, 2020 That happens to me to Kevin. Check your blade alignment. Mine was off just a little and that's all it took to make the pieces hard to get in. Now they all fit fine. amazingkevin 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mine was off just a little and that's all it took to make the pieces hard to get in. Now they all fit fine. I recently got down and eyeballed the blade movements ,Your right it was out of plumb! I had to reverse the stationary set screw that the blade stops on the top and bottom blade holders. The top one the set screw come out about 1/8" and the bottom one is flush with the blade holder. funny how changing this setting did the trick!!!Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
