All has already been said! Amazing work Dick!

Nice work Duke!

Everyone has their own favorite blades. I used Olsen blades for many years, and still use sometimes. I mostly use FD Ultra Reverse blades now. I have tried the Pegas MG blades, and still have some, but I did not like them enough to chance over. In fact, I just bought two gross of U R blades last week.

I agree with all three above. I never paint except backer boards.

Love it, great work!

Nice work Les! Hardwoods have a natural beautiful to them.Painting would cover that beauty. Using an oil would be my choice. Then a topcoat of lacquer or Polly would be great!

Cool work!

I would not stain that beautiful Walnut! Are you going to use Walnut for the base too? If so, I would glue them together first, then soak in a 50/50 mix of boiled linseed oil and mineral spirits. Wipe off the excess, then let dry for 24-48 hours. Then you can apply what ever topcoat you want. That Walnut will look so great with oil rather than stain!

I think if you take a pole, most don’t do it that way. I glue the pattern to the bare naked wood, then clear packing tape on top of that. I don’t have problems with the blade gumming up no matter what blade I use.

Looks great Steve, very nice work! -
Nice work Paul! I’m only guessing here but it looks like the holes were drilled with a Forstner Bit then a round hardwood plug inserted as a backer then your cutouts glued on?

Welcome to the Village! Chances are you do not have enough tension on the blade. Blades need to have a high tension on them or they will flex when cutting. When they flex they will break. Your saw should have a way to tension the blade, usually with a knob or lever. If not, it will make a nice boat anchor. Can you post a picture of your saw or maybe a model number?
