  5. Hey all, i got an order yesterday evening, woman wants 2 crosses about 3 feet high, and i wanna do some fancying it up a bit, i am wondering how could i scroll cut a piece of 2 x4, the kind of wood she wants it done with, i am thinking some kind of angel silhouette if this is even possible, would a spiral blade be the best way to go?
