The last project I'm ever going to cut...
« on: January 30, 2012, 04:08:57 pm »
...on my Porter Cable saw!  My wife wanted me to cut this for her.  1/4" oak, BLO/MS bath.  Likely go with a Satin finish.  Pattern is from the book Classic Fretwork Scroll Saw Patterns by Spielman & Reidle.

If I saw that pattern I would say, "Now that is intimidating", and go on to look for something easier. Congrats that is a masterpiece. but I am still intimidated. ;D

Nice job Glenn.  I use a satin finish on just about everything I cut.  The gloss and semi-gloss will highlight every mistake.  However a great job like that couldn't have too many mistakes  :) 

You are a good scroller and your upgrade to the Delta will just make your work that much better.  I think you will find you can scroll for a longer period of time, on a better saw, without as much fatigue.  Thanks for sharing.
