Brianr24 Posted April 25, 2018 Report Posted April 25, 2018 I decided to finally try these puzzles a try and a non puzzle. I used a superior puzzle blade on the puzzle one. Seems some cut great and others are brutal. new2woodwrk, Scrolling Steve, lawson56 and 4 others 7 Quote
blights69 Posted April 25, 2018 Report Posted April 25, 2018 Great job Brian gotta love a bulldog Quote
kmmcrafts Posted April 25, 2018 Report Posted April 25, 2018 You did pretty good with those.. I'd never try cutting one of those with a puzzle blade.. unless you cut those from thin material? Quote
new2woodwrk Posted April 25, 2018 Report Posted April 25, 2018 Nice job! Try a #3 MG if you have it, that's what I've been using on mine Thanks for shairng Quote
Dan Posted April 25, 2018 Report Posted April 25, 2018 How thick is the wood? If you cut 3/4" I bow to you for using puzzle blades. Quote
Iguanadon Posted April 25, 2018 Report Posted April 25, 2018 Hey Brian, nicely done. As mentioned, puzzle blades are for 1/8" or maybe 1/4" thick wood. For 3/4" use #3 or #5. Quote
DWSUDEKUM Posted April 25, 2018 Report Posted April 25, 2018 Very nicely done Brian. Thanks for sharing this with us. DW Quote

Yes it's 3/4 actually the puzzle blade cut nice (slow) but I cut slow anyway. The problem I had was getting them in the saw and keeping teeth From twisting as I tighten. But Yeah I woul use # 1 next time . I use # 1 on 3/4 a lot. Quote
wombatie Posted April 26, 2018 Report Posted April 26, 2018 You chose a great looking pattern Brian. They look terrific. Well done. I don't think there are many member here that have not given a puzzle a try now. Iggy certainly left his mark on all of us. Marg Quote

rdatelle Posted April 26, 2018 Report Posted April 26, 2018 Looks pretty good. I would use a # 3 if it's 3/4 wood. Much easier. Quote
