ekud1946 Posted March 31, 2018 Report Posted March 31, 2018 (edited) These are just a few of my compound cuts. I like cutting compound cuts, because once you remove the wood from sides it's like opening a box of Cracker Jacks and seeing the surprise inside. I use 1.5" x 1.5" x 5" Bass wood (the wood wood carvers use). I found the best price for buying Basswood is on Ebay.

meflick Posted March 31, 2018 Report Posted March 31, 2018 Very nice work Duke. I agree with you about "opening" up the compound cuts. I need to do some more soon. Are you doing your own painting? Looks good. Thanks for sharing. Quote

If you haven't tried cutting one, give it a try! Duke Edited March 31, 2018 by ekud1946 Quote
