1st time scrolling Basswood

[jimmyG]

Decided to start using some wood from my Ocooch order and used 3/4" Basswood for the first time.
Used an Olson #5 12TPI 9R  PGT  and it cut nice and clean but was not a fan of the way the dense sawdust was hard for the blower to remove from the cut line.  Looking forward to trying out some of the hardwoods instead!

Are those a Steve Good Pattern?

They look terrific.  Very clean cuts.

Nice  cuts.

I agree about the density of the dust.

This is why I had been working on creating a useful top vac.  What I have now I am very happy with. Like you I found certain hardwoods are just plain messy/dusty.

Those are from Jean-Bernard Germe's book: Wooden People & Pets I got on Amazon. It's an okay book but most of the images had to be enlarged to a better size.
