Title: Superman
Post by: mrsn on June 23, 2011, 11:19:28 am
I made this project for my husband for fathers day. I cut the fretwork out of galvanized steel flashing. I found a pack of 10 5"x7" pieces for a couple bucks at Menards and have been waiting for a project to use it. I cut the steel using a wood steel wood sandwich and it cut really well.
I mounted the steel to a painted wood backer and to the other layers using epoxy.
The pattern I modified from a pumpkin carving stencil I found online.

There seems to be NO END to the ingenuity of our members!

Great Project! Katie!!!

I recently 'acquired' (don't ask how!) one of those big triangular "Yield" highway signs and can't wait to try cutting something from that aluminum!

The gift card should have read, "to Superman from Supersaw Woman".  Really cool MrsN!  Somehow I missed it earlier.
