thawkins57 Posted January 23, 2012 Report Share Posted January 23, 2012 452 cuts later, my most intricate and challenging project to date (I just started scrolling last month)... one of our kitties, Megan. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DWSUDEKUM Posted January 23, 2012 Report Share Posted January 23, 2012 Great job with both the pattern and the cut. Thanks for sharing it with us. DW Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WolfmoonCT Posted January 23, 2012 Report Share Posted January 23, 2012 Very nice. I love the frame. So tell us about what it's made from, and what blades did you use? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thawkins57 Posted January 23, 2012 Author Report Share Posted January 23, 2012 Thank you. The frame is a Wally Mart special... $9.95. Even though it's for 8X10 pictures, the opening in the back is 10X12. The extra size gives the frame backer enough room to flex around the 1/8" B/BB Baltic Birch Plywood I picked up at Michael's. I used #5 FD-UR blades from Mike's (great blades, BTW). The finished portrait was dipped in lemon oil, and I used a piece of felt backing that I picked up in a multi-color pack from Walmart.
