Outstanding job! I got tired just thinking about all those cuts. It was well worth it. Thanks for the post.

A truly awesome cutting.  I love doing big ones like that they are so rewarding when they are finished.  Can't wait to see your next one.

Thank you everyone for the great comments!  This was definitely a labor of love!  Well worth the effort, and I can't wait to see my parents' faces when they open it!

@newfie  Todd, the finished size is 11"X14".

@Charlie Dearing  Yes, Mike has very many highly detailed patterns!  Many of which I would be afraid to attempt for fear that my saw would vibrate them apart!  Next up is one or your patterns I purchased to cut for the inlaws.  Wish me luck!

I know how you feel feeding the blade up through those small holes then fitting the adaptor on with a hex key then tensioning the blade before cutting, you said it was tedious but I wouldn't have been so polite lol. The most cuts like that I have made was 50and that was bad enough with all the bottom feeding. I think you have a great deal of patience, and have turned out an excellent piece of work - congratulations

Fantastic, beautiful, and great cutting.  That pattern is lined up to be my second job after I finish Christmas.  Really, you did good, grasshopper...
