Brazillian Cherry Name Plaque
« on: November 23, 2012, 09:43:29 am »
Made this for my grandson , this is some of the hardest material I've ever cut on the scrollsaw - but some of the prettiest material I've even seen finished with just several coats of Laquer . I got a load of this for free { Scrapes - any thing from 2' to 6' pieces & 8" to 10" wide } and it's flawless material and not one knot either ...any comments welcomed ...MB

Very nicely Marshall.  Brazilian Cherry is one hard wood to cut but it finishes quite nicely.  Thanks for sharing it with us.

Very nicely done.   Thanks for sharing the photo - want to share some of the wood as well?   ;)

That looks like a very nice nameplate.  Betting he will cherish for years to come.
