Lazy Susan with Pacific North West Image

I just finished making my first Lazy Susan. I found a Pacific North West image on the web that my wife likes so I incorporated it into the top. I used the Rockler Lazy Susan 6" mechanism and Oak wood from Home depot - 11.125 x .5 . I recessed the mechanics so it was a double sided carve on the top. As usual with my projects something went wrong: the 1/8" cutting bit broke two thirds of the way round cutting out the top after it had carved the design. So I edited the design to remove everything except the cut out. Replaced the bit and saved the carve! Phew! So will be ordering a spare cutting bit shortly. Anyway here are a couple of images of the project.

Cheers

Nice save and good looking project!

Nice project! Were you making a full-depth cut? Try the 3/16" cutting bit.

Really nice project, will look great on any table. Like the idea of recessing the mechanism into the top.

Really nice design and finish, Congrats.

Thanks for the comments. And yes it was a thru cut so I might buy the bigger bit for future cuts. Thanks for the suggestion.
