Here is a photo of my first attempt at a picture. This was so much fun, I was surprised how enjoyable scrolling is.
I am pleased with how it turned out but I have a few questions about the process.
What is the best way to attach the pattern to the wood? I used Elmers Spray Contact Adhesive, it held fine at most places but there were places where the paper came loose while I was sawing. But the biggest problem came when I removed the paper, there was a good amount of adhesive that remained on the wood. Is this normal? If it is what is the best way to remove the residue?
I used 1/4"BB plywood. Is this a good choice or should I use something thicker or thinner, or perhaps solid wood?
What should I use for the backer? I just taped some black paper on this but I am sure there is a better choice.
