christmas presents for my daughters

[Scrolling Jim]

I just finish these two cuttings for my daughters for Christmas. Never again will I spray glue straight to the pattern and wood. It took me hours to sand it off. One is on wavy oak and the other on maple. Very hard as each is an 1" thick.

Did you try mineral spirits to loosen the glue? I only ever did one piece out of maple. So hard I refuse to use it again.

Get some clear removable (repositionable) contact paper put it under the pattern. For big projects a lot cheaper than blue tape.
They are beautiful, especialy the first one. Who is the designer?

Rolf: I really wish I could tell you. I had it in my folder from teaching special education students and have forgotten when or where I got it. I will try to find it again and if I do I will let you know.

Scrolling Jim, I use blue tape or frog tape I'm going to try contact paper. Nice job on the cuttings. Lance

Jim, Great job. Your daughters will be very happy with these.

I know the first horse can be found here:

Nature-Horses :

Not sure about the second on yet.

Nice, I like the first one also, it has elements of the tribal style in the cuts, of which I like.

Nice work.

Your daughters will love them!

I use Lacquer thinner to remove the spray glue. It's takes it all off with just a few swipes and leaves no oily residue on your wood like mineral spirits.
