Charlie E Posted November 28, 2022 Report Share Posted November 28, 2022 Big piece to turn around on those cuts near the edge, isn't it? Nice job! courtym74 and OCtoolguy 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dak0ta52 Posted November 28, 2022 Report Share Posted November 28, 2022 Great job, Matt. I was thinking the same thing as Charlie. My saw is only 16-inches so I would have to cut something that large with spirals. courtym74 and OCtoolguy 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hotshot Posted December 1, 2022 Report Share Posted December 1, 2022 (edited) Awesome, I might see if it is cuttable when I shrink it down to Kennedy coin size. I have another tree of life pattern I do, but it's a bit more involved, so this might be a good alternative. I attached the one I've been doing, cut on a kennedy. As you can see, it's a little nasty, even blown up. If you were to see that at actual size, the twigs are pin size.

I really miss seeing you coin art. Hope you get back to sharing it with us. Edited December 1, 2022 by Scrappile hotshot 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A lot of the time, I wont really know if it can be cut until I print it to size, and get it on the saw and see it under magnification. There is always the Eisenhower if I need a little more re-estate Edited December 2, 2022 by hotshot Gene Howe 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rodney, I basically would cut from an outside corner, where the leaf tip met the rim, down until the leaf meets stem then back up and cut the rim to the other leaf tip then go from there. Kept me from making that turn that put the piece against the back of the saw. Dak0ta52 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rdatelle Posted December 6, 2022 Report Share Posted December 6, 2022 Nice cutting on all of them. I have a 20 Pegus and that would be tricky. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
