Post by: crusty59 on July 13, 2010, 12:27:49 pm

Here is something different. I made this one from 1/2 maple. These are fun to cut

What size blade did you use?  I cut one once, awhile back, but ended up doing it wrong the first time.

They ARE fun! I was intimidated at first, but Steve has a video here on cutting them and it makes doing them Soooooo easy!  Yours is just beautiful!  Thanks for posting! :)

Really very nice.  I haven't tried it yet.  My wife has a thing about baskets, so if I cut one it might be the start of something!

Great job there. Yours came out much nice then mine. I have only cut one basket and it was just ok. I ended up giving it away. I would like to cut more though.

Nice job Marshall. I need to cut them from 3/4 instead of 1/2. They need to be a bit heavier to fall corectly

Crusty I've made over thirty of these Baskets , but different styles . I received two different books that my son  brought from the Berry Basket years ago , over 100 different patterns to choose from. I made all of mine from 3/4" material , the prettiest one's were made from Walnut material ........Marshall
