I'm not satisfied that time but I present it to you anyway. I try to improve my self.

Dak0ta52 Posted October 26, 2021 Report Share Posted October 26, 2021 Nice project, Eric. I see nothing a little sanding wouldn't take care of. Something I've noticed when cutting, especially with wood such as pine, is the blade has a tendency to follow the grain when cutting with the grain and when cutting against the grain, the feed of the blade will slow down as it cuts through the hard portion of the wood and then speed up when it is pushed through the softer part of the grain. If you're not careful, it will make you drift off you lines. I notice this more with spiral blades. Anyway, this has been my experience. Others on the forum may have other ideas.

Hello Dakota, thank you for your advice, it's very interesting. I have indeed noticed this phenomenon, depending on the grain of the wood, the behavior of the blade changes and it becomes difficult (for me) to control the trajectory.

Eric I've noticed this tendency to "jump" gets more and more pronounced the duller the blade is. When it gets to the point that I start worrying about cutting into "good" wood, I figure its time to swap blades. Nicely cut, though!
