| For most color line cutting, as Carter recommends, the finish is applied before cutting, and allowed to cure for at least two days. More won't hurt. The finish protects the graphic from your handling of the puzzle during the cutting. Also, sawdust is not good for the graphic either. When using a very narrow blade, the kerf cut space between the two pieces of wood, will be too narrow for any finish that may overspill into the sides of the pieces. The finish will interfere with the fit of the puzzle if applied after the cutting. HTH Phil |
