I was so excited when Alex posted his new pattern yesterday. It came at the perfect time. I was just finishing lunch and looking for something to do. I saw the plan, purchased it and "got it done". This is also cut from reclaimed Elm. We have a lumber place here now that takes trees that the city has cut, and mill them. Most of the stuff is kept as live edge. This piece was cut from one of their "shorts" at $5/bf. Enough rambling. Cut from Elm using a #5 mg blade. I cut the outline with a #5 FD ultra reverse, but it was so slow and burned in a couple of places. The MG left an amazingly smooth surface that I only sanded the nibs where the blade came out. The flower/leaves have a watered down thin coat of Unicorn Spit. The border is Old Masters gel stain - red mahogany. The hummingbird was finished with Old Masters - fruitwood, the flower/leaves were coated with Tung Oil. Thanks @alexfox for another wonderful pattern.

Showed Dad a pic of this pattern and he rattled off what year the truck was and how the scene reminded him of growing up. It is his birthday on the 20th of this month, so decided to cut it for him. Alex Fox pattern, stack cut three 1/8th BB ply, 11 X 14 using mainly #3 Sawbird ultra reverse blades. Jeff
