The day i got out of the hospital 2 jobs came in .one left a $20 deposit so i guess he didn't want it repaired very bad but i did sand the whole thing but was not about to use paint remover on the spots i could not sand.It's an 1880 rocking chair. i phone and texted twice ,no answer so on to the next job which they left a $100.deposit which turned into a $.job 20 hours later i finished it but they are not answering the phone or texts too.looks like i need higher deposits?Anyway she showed me a picture of what she wanted and wanted it it made from the plywood she left 10 months ago and never came for the jobs i cut from it?Well here's what i did anyway .the red picture is what she wanted til i showed her better .all 3/4" plywood .i tryed to cut on the scroll saw but was way to heavy being 36" tree of life so a jig saw was used with a thin blade 3 of them.Lots of pieces broke .i cut it while vertical in my lap and the dewalt jig saw got heaver and heaver as i went on.The edge of the spruce board broke three times so i glued and clamped it and kept on cutting 21 hour letters, tree, and all .My shop was the worst ever from saw dust everywhere .i had to dig out the plywood that was buried 10 months ago.I'm not about to sand the tree of life Its too fragile and i need my money.It's a juice bar next to planet fitness.The contractor stole the money and never finished.50 pages of copy paper to do the job trimmed all 4 sides and scotch taped together on my crowded desk
