Title: VW Camper
Post by: Keefie on March 18, 2012, 01:03:24 pm

After I cut Paul's pattern of a VW Camper van I was askes by a neighbour who saw it to make him one, but he said he was ordering a pattern from the USA. A picture of the resulting work is attatched. It has not been sanded and finished yet, it was my first ever use of spiral blades, they arent the easiest to use and boy do they leave a lot of little furries to sand off.

Nice job, It does bring back memories, good and bad; I had a 1969.

Great Cut Keefie.  The more I hear about spiral blade the more sure I am I don't want any.  I hate sanding as it is!

Yes, it does bring back the memories of the early 70's. Looks awesome, very beautifully cut .

Nice job of cutting.  Keep working with the spirals, they do get easier.

Thanks for sharing.

Nice cut job Keefie.  I have not gotten the hang of the spiral blades yet but looks like you get along with them pretty well. Looks really good. Thanks for sharing.
