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...... Cal, Fred W. Hargis Jr, Grandpadave52 and 1 other 4 Quote

A #2 blade exceeds this old man's visual acuity. The smallest in my stash is a #3. Grandpadave52, Cal, Fred W. Hargis Jr and 1 other 4 Quote

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. Grandpadave52, Cal and Fred W. Hargis Jr 3 Quote

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. DuckSoup, Cal and Grandpadave52 3 Quote
