Sweeeeeet. Compound cutting is my favorite style of project, for your first I would say you did very well. I've cut that pattern too, don't ya just love the way his feet look.........Thanks for posting your project photo.

I made a mistake and cut the short side first and the cutting the long slide one of his feet slide out a bit so it is bigger than the other. =) Ah well... mywife said it was realistic because no one's feet are the same size. Bless her.

Thanks for the comments. I really had a hard time believing what I was cutting was going to come out an look like an actual object... had a hard time wrapping my mind around it.

I can see a chess board with some 3d pieces in my future.

I had to laugh at your reply, because I thought the same thing when I started cutting compounds, but it sure is fun to "un-wrap" the little gift inside the cuttings.
One of our members here named Pop submitted a design of his for us to cut, it is in the vault here........it's a lock on one side and key on the other......so cool, just thought you may want to try that one. http://www.scrollsawer.com/forum/fre...ault/17648.htm
