I started this project about 3 years ago and cut 9/10ths of it with a hand fret saw. However when I had to cut various bevels on the edges I realised that I had to move up to a precision tool and bought myself my Ex21. However I never got around to finishing it and found all the pieces recently still gathered together in a box. Have now finished it off. It is 40 inches (100cm) high and is quite impressive..

Very impressive!
Did you use a purchased pattern or design it yourself?
What wood did you use?Steve

Congratulations on an impressive heirloom piece. Well done.
One suggestion, you might make a note to go with it as to the source of the pattern and origin of the wood used, if that is of interest. If there is any chance you will make the pattern again, put some private notes with the pattern--how you did certain difficult cuts or fits; what you would do differently if you were to do it again.
thank you for sharing your picture of your work.

It would be truly helpful if all publications were to clearly state on each pattern "enlarge pattern by x% for full size" or something like that which would clue the user in. But I'm like Rolf....I change the size of every pattern to get what I want.

by RolfI agree with you Mark, I am constantly changing or adapting my patterns to suit my taste or the size of the wood that is available to me. Thinking about electronic versions of the patterns, that would be great. But very hard to control. It amazes me how many people have no scruples about sharing....

Pegas TPI 28.2 Thickness .087" Width .0236"
FD TPI 31 Thickness .08 Width.023
So the Flying Dutchman is a bit thinner , not sure it would make a significant difference. Three teeth per...-

by Quartz43Perhaps, we could hear from Fox. Maybe they could try some things and see if it makes things better. Or, they can just keep doing the things the same way.
