Popular Post heppnerguy Posted January 24, 2022 Popular Post Report Share Posted January 24, 2022 When I saw this pattern by Kenny Hopkins I knew it was a must cut. I am just starting to try to learn to make frames so I hope to have some good improvements with them as I go a long. I will try to make a frame for all my future cuts so some day they will hopefully be much better. I cut this one with Pegas #2 MG blades on 1/4 inch BB PLY. I am pretty satisfied with the end results. Dick heppnerguy Foxfold, Dan, bobscroll and 20 others 22 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
preprius Posted January 24, 2022 Report Share Posted January 24, 2022 Good patriotic project. Was the stars hard? The cuts look good and consistent. Me. Mark Eason heppnerguy 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mark Eason No the stars went really quickly. It was just a lot of turning but the piece I was cutting was only 12 X 12 in. so I had plenty of space to cut turn it. I thought at first I might have to use a spiral on them but it was easiest to just use the flat blade. If you like it, give it a try.

rdatelle Posted January 24, 2022 Report Share Posted January 24, 2022 Great job Dick. I know the stars are to hardest to cut. You did a great job on the frame. heppnerguy 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dak0ta52 Posted January 24, 2022 Report Share Posted January 24, 2022 The color really makes it pop. I would have probably gone overboard and tried to paint the blue for the flag and a gray for the pole. As far as the frame, I see nothing wrong with that one. Looks like you pretty well have it mastered already. heppnerguy 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looks like you pretty well have it mastered already. I thought about painting the blue but sometimes paint seems to follow the grain, especially in BB so I opted out of that idea. I probably will cut another one before too much longer and perhaps I will give that a try. Dick heppnerguy Dak0ta52 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gonzo Posted January 25, 2022 Report Share Posted January 25, 2022 I agree, great job! I think the frame looks fantastic heppnerguy 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
