kkrunde Posted December 13, 2014 Report Share Posted December 13, 2014 Still learning! I started with the nativity, but then did the two easier ones to practice. Going to try making some glue and cutting them out with the pattern on top instead of hand cutting the pattern with scissors and then tracing it on. Thanks for looking Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Birchbark Posted December 13, 2014 Report Share Posted December 13, 2014 Cool! nice work. Have you tried blue painters tape, then glue the pattern to the painters tape? That seems to work for some. Thank you for posting these, very nice. Russell kkrunde 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DWSUDEKUM Posted December 13, 2014 Report Share Posted December 13, 2014 There is a trick you can use. Print the pattern then you have a choice of either spray glue or one of the other easy to remove glues. Quite a few of us put down a layer of the blue painters tape before affixing the pattern, This does 2 things. First it makes removing the pattern after being cut much easier and cleaner and Second it provides some lubrication when cutting, this reduces the burning of the wood when cutting it. Personally I put down the blue painters tape then use spray glue on the back of the pattern. This works for me. DW kkrunde 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Around the corner Posted December 15, 2014 Report Share Posted December 15, 2014 Hi you might say your still learning but you can put that behind now cause you have just made something, now you are more knowledgeable than when you started . Now you can say your more experienced. We all never stop learning even if it's 40 years keep it going give yourself a pat on the back Damian kkrunde 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wombatie Posted December 15, 2014 Report Share Posted December 15, 2014 Circles are very hard to cut but you did very well. Personally I love cutting circles but had cutting straight lines. Marg kkrunde 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
