new2woodwrk Posted February 20, 2018 Posted February 20, 2018 Going back and forth between trying to get my taxes entered and scrolling, I was able to cut a few items: The Lighthouse - needs a few more cuts and sanding and finishing. But a question - there are little "lines" (you may see them) should they be cut with a bigger blade to stand out more? Wife cut a new rim for the plates (2 stacked) - she doesn't like them, but I think they're fine And the waste from the rim we're turning into Plate stands Feel free to critique with advice and tips Thanks in advance stoney, Lucky2, lawson56 and 5 others 8 Quote
Dan Posted February 20, 2018 Posted February 20, 2018 Do taxes or scroll... tough call. As for the lines (veining) if they don't stand out enough you can use a thicker blade or cut along the veining to make it thicker. To get rid of the "fuzzies" I just run a torch over them to singe them, but don't burn the project. Or you can sand them. If you use a reverse toothed blade you will reduce the fuzzy stuff. new2woodwrk and OCtoolguy 1 1 Quote

WayneMahler Posted February 20, 2018 Posted February 20, 2018 Veining cuts will stand out once finished. I cut mine with what ever blade I normally cut the pattern with. I do stain most of my work and that enhances those cuts. new2woodwrk, NC Scroller and OCtoolguy 1 2 Quote
