Thought I'd share a few projects accomplished since Christmas. The Boxer was a Birthday gift for my son's girlfriend. 'Pups on Bench' and 'Wolf' are JZ patterns. Really enjoyed cutting these. Some of the frames I made and a couple were store bought (sale). Your thoughts and advice are welcome.

Nice work, Paul. I just started Pups on a Bench - Kevin and steve must have given me a taste for holes ..lol I hope mine looks as good as yours
I'm finding slow going at the moment though - I'm determined to get the hang of spirals but at the moment I'm still having to think about avoiding going onto autopilot and turning the workpiece ...Ian

Ian, There is no reason you can't turn the piece when you are doing and using spirals. It is always easier to push the piece into the blade. It is not required when pushing to turn it as much. Also by pushing you can see the blade better.Chuck D
When a work lifts your spirits and inspires bold and noble thoughts in you, do not look for any other standard to judge by: the work is good, the product of a master craftsman.

I guess I just need more practice with spirals ...Ian

Reply to Cutting Stylesby millwabOnce whatever top coat is dry the contact paper goes directly on the image. The nice thing about it is it comes up without pulling on the picture and leaves no residue when it's pealed off....

Reply to Cutting Stylesby millwabIt depends on the source picture, but most of the time I spray something on top. Shellac or triple thick glaze usually regardless of whether I'm applying the contact paper or not.
BTW, I do cut puzzles along color lines too. Most of my Christmas card puzzles are cut that way (~60/year)...-
