Finished the Raccoon..
« on: October 23, 2014, 08:40:46 pm »
Well got it done.  If I do another, I will make it a little larger.  Would make things much easier.  But I am happy with it.  Had to make some minor repairs but still good enough for a rookie.

stacked 2  1/8" BB.  Used FD 3/0 Spiral blades.

Awesome work.  I would not have the patience to do that cutting as fast as you did, if ever hehe.  Thanks for sharing this work of art with us.

Beautiful work. Better not use the ROS on it. :)

Did you go through a lot of blades? I've heard those 3/0 spirals are pretty fragile.

How did you attach it to the backer? Seems like gluing those whiskers would be a job.
