bb king recut

[bobman]

re cut the bb king I made awhile back wasn't happy with it so I re made the pattern and recut it

The first one was good Bob but the second is superb! you can see all the extra work gone into your pattern design and cutting it out..... amazing how they don't break up with such fine detail. Do you cut the wood with your pattern stuck on and then back with the black? if so how do you stop the wood breaking when its so fine?
Cheers

thanks Brian I use 4mm birch ply which is pretty strong and a fine no 1blade I usually cover the ply with wide masking tape first then stick my pattern on top with a glue stick the masking tape comes off easier than the glue the, black backing is just black card from the, 99p store

Excellent, Bob, and a hell of a difference from the first one. That fretboard must have given you one or two scary moments.

Fabulous! Great cutting skills and a great patten. What's the overall size of the piece?
Keep up the great work.
