Use the Saw to cut the hearts-Then a roundover bit to smooth out the
heart edges,,In my opinion 99% of Scrollsawn crafts look unfinished cuz
no router used on edges..Furthermore the ones ive seen look like
somebody was in a big hurry to slap em together...Just my 2c

I prefer Forstner bit and scroll saw and 1/4" roundover.
