Cut the runners for some sled ornaments. Thought I could highlight them in red before cutting but that plan failed. Colored solid with a marker.

 

              

 

                

Those are excellent Bob!

Nice cutting, Bob. Looking forward to the completed sled.

 Patterns applied and marked, ready for drilling & cutting.

        

 

                                                                      

 Put the eyes to the test with the holly wreath. Leaves measure 1/4" x 1/8" wide.

 

            

Love it Bob. That is awesome. Your patience is amazing with that many blade placement moves.

        

 

 

       

 

                                                                     

 

 

                                                                  

Very nice, Bob!

Ditto. Great cutting, Bob. Really like them. What are the sizes? How thick are they? What blade(s) did you use?

  I used 3/16 maple for the runners & 3/16 cherry for the bodies. Bodies are just under 4" long by 2 1/2" wide. #2 reverse tooth blade for the most part. Some of the finer cuts I used a 3/0 blade, the candy & wreath......

 

These are unique, creative and so well done Bob. Appreciate you sharing your talents.

Thanks. A #2 blade exceeds this old man's visual acuity. The smallest in my stash is a #3. 

Those are super Bob

   Gene, I made two mistakes on these & the sleighs, one, I left the patterns laying on the table were the Sunday coffee club seen them and picked which ones they wanted. Two, I didn't print the patterns in red . By the time I finished the runners for the sleighs I was wearing these.....  and wore them to the end.

Yep. Mine are an unknown diopter and un lighted but serves the purpose. Without them, I can't see the #3 blade/line convergence. And, I don't have a color printer.
