Popular Post Old Joe Posted July 17 Popular Post Posted July 17 Dips and Dragons based on a Fiona Kingdon pattern, cut with a recessed cut, backed in really nice stained glass. 5/8” Hard Maple. I bought a 6’ Hard Maple board a couple of months ago and have cut several projects out of it. That said, I have cut Hard Maple often in the past, but this particular board has been brutal to scroll, no matter whether on my Hegner, or on my Pegas, and no matter what blade I use. I must keep the speed set low, or the blades break, and I have to go millimeter by millimeter. But I like the finished product. Wichman, RabidAlien, Dan and 14 others 16 1 Quote
TAIrving Posted July 17 Posted July 17 I cut that one a few years ago, it is a real challenge. I learned a lot about cutting fretwork. Quote
Old Joe Posted July 18 Author Posted July 18 I am thinking about doing some detailing on this one with my wood burner. I actually practiced with it on the back side knowing that it would be covered up by the glass. I added some definition to the wings and emphasized the division between the bumps on the bodies.It was pretty cool, but also rather unorthodox. I’m sorry that I didn’t take a picture before I covered it up. If I decide to to do it, I’ll add a picture. barb.j.enders 1 Quote
