cut a couple projects the other night, one an indian from our own Messman cut on 1/4 oak and stained dark with a stained pine frame. The other a grizzly bear by sue walker that I put in a barn style frame I made up.

Well done. The Indian one, the frame is a little overbearing, but a nice job overall."Still Montana Mike"

Nice detail cutting.Comment

Nicely done on both
Im with Mike, the Indian gets a little lost with the dark staining and the dark backer. But maybe it comes out better seeing it in personBrett
Only Robinson Crusoe could get everything done by Friday!

Nice job cedarguy,
like the style of frame you used,did you make those also,what did you use too plane the bevel,if you did/.Comment

Thanks for the comments. I did make the frames, the one on the bear is made from plywood strips and it is beveled. I used an old hand plane my grandpa gave me some years back to plane the edges.Originally posted by tony coleman View Post

Like the indian and the frame's. I feel the bear is to close to it's frame.

I some how totally missed this posting. Thanks for posting it. My indian pattarn came out so much better than I pictured it in my head. Thank you for cutting it. That bear is fantastic as well.Comment

Cedarguy, I think you did a nice job on the cuttings but I believe I would have used a narrower material for the frame. When framing my work I want the focal point to be the cutting not the frame. Just a thought,Originally posted by wood-n-things View Post
for showing us your work.

I love the Indian. But like the others think, maybe you could do something diff with the frame? The matt does help alot, tho, to separate the two.
But I do love it...I wouldn't hesitate to hang it on my wall as is. It is gorgeous.Comment
