OK I admitted defeat with the straight blades on this and switched to 2/0 spirals after about 20 cuts
Flat blades might have worked I think if I'd stack cut and I'd enlarged the pattern a little but trying to steer 5/32 ply was a pain!
This is one of Kevin's patterns - with a few improvisations - some not intended! Hope they're not too visible on what I really like as a pattern.
Reasonably happy with it though. I think there are somewhere between 230 and 250 cuts but maybe Kevin knows the true figure - I lost the will to count after a while ..lol
Just need a matt and a frame now ..
