For making portrait type things, you can't beat 1/8" Baltic Birch, stack cut. Dollar store frame.

Hi Candi, welcome to the group. There's nothing wrong with a Craftsman saw, many of us including me, use one, or have used one in the past. Ask anything please.

Thanks for all the kind words. These things are a challenge, but the result is rewarding.
Mrtcurtis, my first one was so thin, it broke as I was unwrapping it from it's cocoon. That's when I figured out to cut slightly to the outside of the lines.

This is great! I also saw the others on your website, amazing.
Two questions. Is this all done with exacto knives, and what kind of paper is used?

Very nice wheelbarrow, you've done some fine cutting there.
I don't think it will hold much dirt though.
