I have a pattern that is like a paddle and I am trying to change the width of the paddle part and change the width of the handl3e part. I am blind and my son and I are working on this pattern and we thought we had the changes made but when we did a test carve the changes were not there. Can anyone give us a step by step on how to make these changes? 'Thanks Tom
If you want to send the pattern to me I'll be glad to try to help. Or send me a private message that explains more the problem.
Hey guys, is there someone out there that can help Tom. I've tried but it concerns cut paths, which I know very little about. Thank you.
He needs to post it.
Alright. Thank you.Quote:

I can get the pattern there, but when I apply the cut path, I can't maintain the width I drew. Since I don't do many cuts (everything I carve is on one standard board usually) I have no idea if this is the norm, or what there is about cut paths I don't know. And I have watched AskBud's videos but didn't see anything that addressed this specifically.
Any help would be most appreciate. And thank you.
Here is my attempt.
Thank you. I will pass it on.
