Compound cuts
I've been making ornaments for a few years now and its becoming a tradition with my friends. This is some work, but with the stack cutting it really goes far. Twenty-five stacks of six make a hundred and fifty flat ornaments plus a couple dozen compound cuts. No, I actually don't have that many friends, but they are growing. The compound cuts are poplar, pine and mahogany. The flats are baltic birch. The patterns come from books and magazines. I think fretwork goes back to the Victorian era. Merry Christmas to all.
