Marshall Posted October 29, 2011 Posted October 29, 2011 I made this out in the shop this week for my daughter-in-law's desk , made of Cherry - it was hard to cut since I'm use to cutting that soft pine all the time ......any comments welcome ............ Quote
toolbeltman Posted October 29, 2011 Posted October 29, 2011 Nicely done Marshall....I have read that you need plenty packing tape to stop the blade burning the wood while cutting Cherry...did you use tape? Thanks for showing. Quote
DWSUDEKUM Posted October 29, 2011 Posted October 29, 2011 Nicely done Marshall. Thanks for sharing it with us. Doug the packing tape, either clear, or the blue does help a lot with reducing burning when cutting cherry. DW Quote

Thanks for showing. No I didn't use anything but a slow cutting action , I usally don't use the tapes unless I do the fine detailed protraits stack cuts . I guess it's just all the cutting I've done , I always say slow is better - haven't had any burning problems as long as I use the right flying Dutchman blade and the right speed .........I think the more cutting that one does , is the best teacher in the long run ......thanks for the comment ......MB Quote
Dan Posted October 29, 2011 Posted October 29, 2011 Nicely done! I think cherry is one of my favorite wood. Quote
