Dak0ta52 Posted January 23, 2022 Report Share Posted January 23, 2022 Excellent work. I'm also working on the Americana series by Jim. Just too cold to get into my shop. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Joe W. Posted January 23, 2022 Report Share Posted January 23, 2022 That's tempting me to give spirals a try. Well done. danny 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

meflick Posted January 23, 2022 Report Share Posted January 23, 2022 Nice work. @Jim Blume does great looking patterns. I’m sure he will be happy to see your cut from one of his patterns. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
heppnerguy Posted January 24, 2022 Report Share Posted January 24, 2022 I also love Jim Blume patterns and plan to cut some soon. You did a great job on both of these and congratulations on giving the spiral blades a go. So many either refuse to give them a shot or did not like what happened when they did and refuse to give them another try. Practice makes perfect. a little time and soon one will get the feel of of them. Dick heppnerguy don watson 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rdatelle Posted January 24, 2022 Report Share Posted January 24, 2022 Those came out great. I still can't get used to the spirals. Still messing with them though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jamieline Posted January 24, 2022 Author Report Share Posted January 24, 2022 Thanks all. First time I tried the sprials did not like them but took some time with them and kind of like them for the application here. I picked up a good selection of the Pegus Sprials from Dennis and will continue to use them. I have made other plaques using the straight blades but will switch to the sprials for those. Yes the more you practice the better. Have to get better following the pattern but with the type patterns I going to use the sprials on there is some forgiveness. Working on another project but will post when framed. Already started cutting another in the Americana series. don watson 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
