  13. Like ANYTHING you cut you should not breathe the dust. Corian is a plastic and can give off a very fine talcum powder like dust as well as vapors that some folks are sensitive to when cut with a scroll saw. Wearing of a mask is and should be standard practice although a lot of us do not do so. Making sure that you have adequate ventilation is important as well. Cutting corian is really not more dangerous than cutting MDF or pressure treated lumber both of which are far more harmful to work with than corian. Corian is not difficult to work with it cuts easier than say oak. It sands easily and depending upon the finish you plan to use you can often stop sanding at around 400 grit. Corian will require buffing to bring up the shine of the plastic but that is easily done as well. DW
  14. That came out great Dick. They are really going to like that. Thanks for sharing this with us. DW
  15. I have found corian in a couple of places. A lot of time you can find scrap pieces - generally pieces smaller than a foot square generally - from places that install kitchens. I also have found a good amount on Ebay. DW
  16. It will tend to do that IF you use a small number blade. I used a #9 UltraReverse however a skip tooth generally will make a cleaner cut as the chips are able to get out of the kerf better. DW
  17. This is a Steve Good Pattern and it is about 14 inches tall. The corian I used was a sink cutout from a kitchen install. The corian is 1/2 inches thick. I used a #9 ultra Reverse blade to cut the pattern. DW

  21. I cut this bowl at 28.6 degrees left side down. There is a formula you can use ( if you like math ) or you can use the tool found on the Scrollmania website. The tool is easier for most to use. DW
  22. Spirithorse I have made enough of these type to have a fair idea what it will look like. I have trained myself to see what the end result of the blank should look like when glued up. I still get surprised now and then however. As for documentation I have not really thought about doing that, the closest I have gotten to doing that is something like what I just did. I showed the blank, then the pattern and the pattern placement and then the bowl made from it. DW
  23. Created this bowl from pine scraps and a 1/8 in hick leftover piece of paduk. Sealed with tung oil and top coated with shellac. This bowl is 5 1/2 inches wide x 7 3/4 inches long and 3 inches tall. The walls of the bowl started at 3/8 inches thick and were sanded to around 1/4 inch. DW
  24. Those look great Frank. They would make great placeholders for a dinner or some other special event. Thanks for sharing these with us. DW
  25. Excellent cutting Frank. Thanks for sharing this with us. DW
