  1. Last week, I captured this pattern by Paul (Grandpa) in the New Patterns Section. I used Baltic Birch plywood 1/4" x 11" x 14". The pattern was enlarged by 20% and even then, some of the holes were small. There were almost 300 holes to drill and cut. Very time consuming, but I finished it in one day. The backing is a black mat board and of course, I framed it at ArtCrafters. The picture doesn't show, but I used framing quality Acrylite. I went through about three FD New Spiral #2/0 blades. Comments welcome.
  2. Very well done.
  3. If framed, for backers I use mat boards. If I want a wood backer , I stain it with Samen Stain.
  4. Welcome to the forum from TN. Lots of friendly folks here.
  5. What a fantastic idea, combining your talent with education. The kids faces says it all.
  6. Everything looks very good. The cat especially.
  7. That is not practice. The lines are very clean. Very nice cutting.
  8. I really like the arrowhead backing. Very well cut.
  9. Well done. I saw this on the other forum. Russell does some great designs.
  10. Very well done. That is a perfect project for spiral blades.
  11. That is cool Ralph. Not only the project, but to think of the little girl.

  14. Thanks for all the nice comments.
  15. Go for it, DW.
  16. Thanks Rob. It took three trys to get the right angle. Otherwise an easy cut.
  17. A Steve Good pattern that included initials, but decided not to include initials. Maybe this should be called 'Four Roses Trivet'. I used 1/2" Cherry approximately 6" in diameter. Not shown, but there are three plastic round feet on the bottom. I used FD UR #3 blades. The finish is sanding sealer, sanding, and one coat of spray Shellac. Comments welcome.
  18. This is a Steve Good pattern listed in his newsletter last week. I used 2 1/4 degrees for the bevel cut. This raised each piece by 1/4". I used 1/2" Mahogany approximately 7 1/2" square and FD UR #3 blades. The finish is sanding sealer, sanding, and one coat of spray Semi Gloss Polyurethane. Comments welcome.
  19. Thanks for the reply. Very well done especially for a first try.
