Russ Beard owl

[RabidAlien]

Finally finished this little guy.  Used Pegas #1 MG blades.  Not a difficult cut, but lots of pilot holes to drill.  Very few straight lines, all of them around the borders, so this would lend itself well to spiral blades.

That is a wonderful owl.  The eyes are penetrating.  What is the size of the project?

[Rockytime]

Very nice cutting on a great pattern!

I think it measures out to about 9x11 on the outside edges.  I printed it on a letter-sized sheet of paper and usually add a half-inch around the border for framing.

Beautiful.  Russ has some awesome patterns.  I'm so glad he shares them with us.

Great job on the cut, looks real nice. 

Yep, very suitable for the use of spiral blades.  They would probably have reduced your cutting time significantly.  I would guess at least half asuming skilled in their use.

Great job. Fret scrolling does indeed take a bit of time but the end rewards are always worth the extra time to complete.  Love it
