Army of Ghosts
« on: August 28, 2010, 10:37:17 pm »
Another activity the woodworking club participates in is cutting wood cutouts for the local Adult Daycare Center. A different member cuts out a set every month for the disabled adults to paint. This is my contribution for October. Cut from 3/4" pine, took me about two hours this morning.

Wonderful "Service to Others", Dan.
Kudos to your 'club'!

Did you make a template and just trace the outline directly on the wood?

I make toys for sick children at our local hospital pediatrics ward, never thought about doing things for adults in care facilities. Something I will look into. Keep up the great work.

Yes GB. I made a template from 1/8" Baltic birch, then traced onto the blanks.

One by one. 3/4" is to thick to stack cut.
