garywc1963 Posted April 20, 2012 Author Report Posted April 20, 2012 Havinago, this pattern can be purchased from www.scrolleronline.com they have many really cool patterns. Saw pattern needs blown up closer to life size saw. Thanks and good lucky with your projects. Quote
Mick Posted April 20, 2012 Report Posted April 20, 2012 Gary, just a suggestion. Next one you cut have the grain of the wood go lengthwise on both the saw blade and the handle. This is just my opinion. Very nice cuttings. Mick Quote
garywc1963 Posted April 21, 2012 Author Report Posted April 21, 2012 Thanks Mick and i do agree, i think they wood (little pun there) look better grain going other way.What do you all use for finish or sealer? These were poly and i just dont like it much,lastest project used lacqure like it lot better. Want that wet wood look to bring out grain but dont want shine. Quote
Mick Posted April 21, 2012 Report Posted April 21, 2012 Gary, I use Formby's Tung oil FInish on most of my projects. Don't know how you can get a wet look without a shine to it. Maybe knock the shine down with a light rub of very fine sandpaper. Try rubbing it down with a crumpled brown paper bag. Good luck. Mick Quote
