Popular Post amazingkevin Posted April 23, 2020 Popular Post Report Share Posted April 23, 2020 (edited) Been wanting to do this a long time. And next time it will be bigger. This baby,s a full 16.5" x 10.5/8" in 1/4" 3 ply plywood cabinet backer I found or salvaged. I spent a lot of time sanding and detailing but the finish coat raised all the slivers everywhere.cut with FDScroll reverse #3 blade. Good practise piece. I spent my extra time in 3 or 4 days and cut till tired. Rattle can primer & top coat.

Dragonkort Posted April 25, 2020 Report Share Posted April 25, 2020 that is fantastic!!! i love seeing all the work you people do.... for some reason when im doing fret work on baltic burch if its got to many inside cuts...it sort of splinters if you know what i mean...and if i try to make cuts that are real close together i find that i often have a problem with pieces breaking off.... i try to always stack cut when im doing fret on baltic burch in the hopes that the layers won't splinter and i wont break off any pieces... is there some kind of trick to this that the books havent told me about? these problems are the main reason i dont try to cut more complex and challanging work. if i have these problems with the simpler stuff im afraid trying something harder would be a disaster. just woundering. amazingkevin 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know I show too many names I do and have wore my fingers out scrolling them, it this is one I could not pass up any longer. The back tire thrilled me so much that I had to do it. I picture myself on this bike doing a stand still 360 degree donut standing up on the pegs with the front brake on smoking the back tire as it slowly makes it,s turn around!!! I like all my fun on bikes at slow speeds less than 100 mph. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well done! No worry,s Dan!!! I need to be in a zone to tackle something like this.I really needed to do this to unwind from doing quick and easy stuff. I did learn a lot with the #3 blade is that pieces are cut gently with this fine tooth blade. So breakage is at a bare minimum in close proximity of other cuts!!!

Hi Dragonkort, I just learned why pieces break off. Too coarse of a blade like a #5#7#9' blades is to aggressive!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
