This was my first piece after building SC600 - not counting the abandoned works while tuning the Stepcraft!

SC600
HF350
1/8" 60deg V-bit
1/8" spiral up-cut
9mm plywood

The up-cut gave it a fuzzy edge that I gave a quick rub with (very rough) sandpaper. Intended as a throwaway piece but my wife took a liking to it and asked me to make a stand to go with it. The stand took me longer to make than the cross - failures of a newbie. 😉
