Popular Post John B Posted August 21, 2022 Popular Post Report Share Posted August 21, 2022 I found a CD with some photos on it in drawer on my computer desk. It had this gem. My 1st attempt at making a pattern and cutting it. I believe I cut it on a GMC saw. (A cheap, very cheap, generic piece of ??? ) cut in 2006 It is a picture of a couple of friend's wedding. I was pleased with it and they liked it, but I wince now Dave Monk, OCtoolguy, Wilson142 and 10 others 13 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

oldhudson Posted August 21, 2022 Report Share Posted August 21, 2022 I'm amazed sometimes when I go back and look at a project I did years before. As we gain experience and our skills improve - our views/opinions change too. I think it looks great! John B and OCtoolguy 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fish Posted August 21, 2022 Report Share Posted August 21, 2022 I like it, it came out really nice. One thing I learned to watch out for is the grain in the wood. I've used BB and after I finished it I found I missed how the grain takes it away from the portrait. I look for the most grain clear piece I can find. I did one of my daughter on the tire swing and the grain of the wood ruined it. John B 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wombatie Posted August 22, 2022 Report Share Posted August 22, 2022 The cutting looks good it's just the blue background that's the problem. Marg John B 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
keefie Posted August 22, 2022 Report Share Posted August 22, 2022 For a first attempt at making a pattern I think you did exceptionally well. As for your comment on one reply about the 5 O'clock shadow - the light is coming from the top right of the picture (you can see the reflection of the light) so the shadow is perfectly placed John B 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
