A Little Something for the Bottom Feeder
I just wanted to share something that has helped me over the years. Being a bottom feeder, this works very well. Several years ago, I somehow acquired a spring-loaded nail set/punch. I have been using it for years to counter dent the holes on the bottom of a piece I am working on, so it is easier to find the hole and feed the blade into it. It actually works so well that often, I do not need to raise the piece high enough to see the hole. I can do it by feel. I have worn the punch out, so
AI?
Does anyone here know how to use AI and test what would happen if you asked it to make a scroll saw pattern out of the picture?

Would this make a good stand?

You Would Think This Would Break Easy
So this is something I've been messing with on my laser cutter but I don't see any reason someone couldn't do this with a scroll saw.. though you'd probably need to be a pretty good with the scroll saw to make it work correctly. Look at how you can cut several lines into this 1/8" BBply and then you can bend it right around a corner. When I first run across this type of work I thought no way that really works so I had to purchase a laser file ( also comes in a printable PDF for those wondering )

Alex Fox Basket C21 Modified
An Alex Fox Basket C21 Modified. I used 1/4" solid Walnut 8" square. Cut on the Pegas Scroll Saw using Pegas #1 MGT Blades. After sanding each ring with a Mac Mop, glue one ring at a time. When complete, one coat spray Shellac, another light sanding, and one coat spray Lacquer Clear Gloss. Comments welcome.
