Stalking Leopard
« on: January 30, 2012, 04:24:09 pm »
I just finished this great picture of a stalking leopard. The pattern is by Kerry Hallam and was taken from the Scroll Saw Woodworking magazine. I cut it on an 11X14 Baltic Birch, stack of 3. I used flat blades, just can't seem to get used to spirals. Can't tell you how long it took because I don't keep track of my time. There aren't a whole lot of difficult cuts in this , just a lot of them. Hope you like it.
