Popular Post Charlie E Posted September 15, 2020 Popular Post Report Share Posted September 15, 2020 No backer yet but I like how this sign is turning out. It's about 12"X16". I bought the wood at Hobby Lobby. I didn't really care for how it cut. It's Basswood and is very soft which for me makes it easier to mess up. I like cutting Oak. We'll be hanging it on the front porch. If you want the pattern I can point you in the right direction. It's from an Etsy Shop called Buzzcutz. The shop owner also has a shop called Wallcutz where she sells stencils. I bought the image but asked if she could send me the stencil image as it would make a good scroll saw pattern and she did.

Rockytime Posted September 16, 2020 Report Share Posted September 16, 2020 Great looking sign. Cut with straight blades or spiral? Cutting looks excellent! Charlie E 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cutting looks excellent! Thanks Les. I used FDUR #1 except for the straight lines around the edges where I used FDUR #5's. I don't have much luck with spirals except for opening up a line I've already cut with a flat blade. I cut mostly thicker solid wood, this was 3/4". I imagine it might be easier to follow a line with a spiral on thinner plywood. It did make for a lot of tight twisting and turning on those small letters on the bottom. Probably took me 10-15 minutes per letter. I could never make good money at this. Edited September 16, 2020 by Charlie E Rockytime 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You’re wife is a lucky lady. Charlie E 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
