Under the Sea Filigree Ornaments

[Denny Knappen]

There are twelve in the set, patterns by Keith Fenton and found in CWWC June 2013.  I had a lot of tear out as seen in the first picture, so next time I will use a backing.  I used 1/4" Baltic Birch plywood and FD UR #1 blades.  I may make a mobile out of these.  Comments welcome.

Those are great, Denny !....I like the idea of  using them in a mobile !

[Denny Knappen]

Thanks Steve, when I get a few more finished, maybe a mobile.

Denny, just a thought the FD blades are very aggressive at least for me.  If I am greatly worried about tear out I will use an Olson blade, one of the reverse blades.  For 1/4 inch I would use a 2R.  I like them for delicate work, they don't cut as fast as a FD but for me they are better and give me less issues.  Hope it helps.  I do use the FD on thick wood and like them a lot for that.

Boy that shell looks extremely fragile, you did an excellent job cutting it.  They are all fantastic, well done.

Nice cutting Denny. It bums me out when my projects tear out like that. Did you stack cut it?
