Thanks Bill....Shaman came off machine Tuesday PM after making SURE I didn't want to make any cuts. Maple was standing deadwood that blew off, and bark was loose on the right side and partly punky. Tested 3 different finishes yesterday on waste areas, and looks like I'll fully saturate with Linwax t...

Thanks Randall. I just checked my most used of those bits... I put a sharpie mark on the bit case for every 8 hrs(or 4 hrs on "Bit Dulling" exotics)of cutting... My .25mm has 9 marks on it and I still use it:) If allowance is .015" or less..sometimes a coat of finish helps(? depends on wood and fini...

Nice design Randall!:)
Is that your .125" shank .5mmTBN?

Thanks Randall! When I started, I always learned the most from threads that went from start to finish(and included Oopsies). May be boring reading to some, but just trying to pass it on hoping it may help others. (besides...I LIKE to Yatter:) When I bought Kitten model... also bought the Wolf/Moon m...

Great cutting and finish on those!!
Well Done!

Thanks Art and Joe:) The hardest part of this one was the Wood:) Couldn't find much info on it except it had a Janka of 2,800-3,200 and specific gravity of about 1.18, and "...not for fine detailed work..."!! I'll take a chunk of hard,heavy wood for a 3D any day of the week, but this was one of the ...

Thanks Ron:)

He's a very big bellied guy...reminds me of a kitten full of milk on their first walking day:)

Yep...without something for scale it's hard to tell what you're looking at.

So Chucked the .25mmTBN and Nudged my Z-Zero .005" down from the last depth of the 1mm.... warmed wood slightly and applied thin coat of Linwax, 1.6.21 RED IRONBARK 4 READY FOR .25MM TBN.jpg And cut. Here it is straight off the machine after soft horsehair brushing it off. 1.8.21 JOANS CAT 1.jpg Sor...

The Kittencat once placed and roughly sized, was proportional height of .43"... So could have cut with my 1/8" shank small TBNs(CEL about .5"), but kinda liked the model with the model height increased to .55". That meant the .25" shank TBNs. So I made an alternate model with the exaggerated model h...

I made a small Kitten/Butterfly ornament on a test cut piece for paint infilling for a Christmas ornament for my stepmom and sent her a pic with 1 coat on it. 12.21.2020 TEST BOARD KITTEN .jpg Told her that if she like it I would buy the 3D model, and cut her one for her January Birthday. She loved ...

OH S*IT!!
Hope it cleans up OK....because that is a Beautiful piece Ron!!

One of my favorite trays has a thin cork full length strip on the handle sides...I Like it!
Makes me want to make a custom tray myself!!:)
Well Done Ron!

NICE Shark!
(I can never look at a cut like that without thinking what sections would look like with various
pointed round over bits:)
