Title: As we're in eagle mode...
Post by: Coffeepot on February 15, 2012, 10:24:43 am
...hope you can stand one more.  I finished this not too long ago for a customer who requested the original 10 x 14 inch pattern to be enlarged.  After 2 trips to the copy store, it ended up as 16 x 24, which made it interesting to cut on the saw with only a 20 inch gap.

The only wood locally that size was some joined pine boards in HD, so I did a little staining and added sparkle felt on the background for a little "bling", and it came out like that:

Thank you, Danny.  I believe I used a #5 blade.  I'm not real good with spirals yet.  Amazingly enough, the customer seemed rather pleased and left a $10 tip at the little local store where I have a small display.  :)

Thank you, Pete.  I agree.  I love eagles and really struggle not to purchase or copy every eagle pattern I come across.  I have really enjoyed seeing all the others that were posted.

Wow, thank you, Marc.  I'm presently cutting some more in the original size (10 x 14) in 1/8 baltic birch and apply to some (hopefully) interesting backgrounds.  Once you get past cutting 25 or so little stars, the rest is all downhill!   ;D
