Gift for Step-son. 1/8" BB, no finish applied, Black construction paper backing. Tried a spiral on the grassy area and almost ruined it! Most of it was cut with a #2 skip-tooth.

Nicely cut, Mike. My goodness, you've got some rather fine bridges holding substantial sections of wood!

Gill, Yes but its surprisingly pretty stable. The blade I used made a horrible mess of fuzzies and I used a palm sander to help rid them.Mike

Nice work Mike, you stated you almost ruined the grassy area by using spirals? What was your spiral blade choice?Todd

Not really, Pop. I put the piece on a cork surface and first lightly touched it with the sander. When I saw so little movement, I put a little more pressure on it. As you can see, it held up okay. Was I just lucky?
Todd, I'll have to check tomorrow as I don't remember the blade.Mike

Beauty of a buck Mike!!! Very well done.

I don't think there is any luck involved. It's just talent we Mikes are born with.Originally posted by MikeDingas
Actually, I always use my palm sander on my portraits after they're cut. I have never broken a piece out yet. I don't see a problem unless you come down at an angle.
