Unless your Lowes is different than mine that "Birch" plywood is NOT Baltic Birch and does not have the same qualities as BB. It also has been known to have voids in the inner plies.

Yes it did take some work the leaves ends where they are pointed took alot of the time, I cut the extra out then went back in two different directions to get the small points of each leaf to add the detail of a zig zag on the edge of the leaf.

Fantastic. I made a cross my first project. In fact my first 4 projects were all crosses. This one you did looks nice, I am sure your wife loves it. Thanks for sharing.

great job!

 I know I can get carried away and cut for hours on end. I do get up and take a stroll around the basement for my neck and eyes sake. This is a great hobby though, so have fun

Great work! I get my BB Ply from Lowes. It comes in big or small sheets. I just cut it down in my shop with the table saw or you can have them cut it down there.

I buy mine at Lowes too. Get the 2x4 sheet and have them cut into 1ft squares. Good for stack cutting or just single sheet projects.
