Oven Pull Re-Do

I didn't care for the first one came out so I'm doing them over.
Outside are Cherry and the center is poplar.
She also ordered a 3rd pull.

So what dimensions of stock are you using now that you have it perfected? Particularly thickness of the 3 pieces? Are you stack cutting the 2 sides and then just inverting them before you cut out the perimeter?

Hey Mike, Just to make it simple all three pieces are about 1/4" thick and 2" wide
( it fits the tape) by however long you want 8-9 inches.
I'll cut 2" strips and cut them to length and mix or match woods when I need to make one. Just place your text on the outer pieces close and leave enough room to do some shaping.
I do most of the shaping with a one inch belt sander. From this point I don't worry about perfection. I prefer they look like they have been used for 100 years than newly produced.

The basic shape is a pattern from Steve Good a long time ago. It just turned out to be a great pattern to freestyle from. Thanks Steve

Great explanation. You don't stack cut the words though? I thought maybe you could.

You can stack cut the text, you just have to remember to place the blanks in the right position.

I thought perhaps. Thanks! You did a nice job on those!
