Proxprof Posted January 3, 2015 Report Share Posted January 3, 2015 Hello Scroll mouse, welcome to the forum. I am from the Netherlands, that makes us practically neighbours. I read you are searching for 3D animal patterns. You can get those for free on a dutch website. I just don't know if it's allowed to write the internetadress here. I'll send you a personal message. Richard. scroll mouse 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scroll mouse Posted January 4, 2015 Author Report Share Posted January 4, 2015 Thanks everyone for the warm welcome Regarding the paterns. I am looking for a patern that comes with a front and a left or right side. When you attach those sides on your workpiece, you can cut both sides out and you will have a nice 3D figure. I have found many on YouTube, but not with a download to make them. And if you find a download you have to pay I hope that someone has a nice website for making some lovely pieces in 3D.

John (JC) Posted January 5, 2015 Report Share Posted January 5, 2015 Hi Gregory, Welcome to the site!! I love this site and the wide geographical footstep it covers I have looked into 3-D Animal patterns a bit for my whirligig patterns and have ended up making my own from downloaded animal pics, then resizing them to get matching sizes to the the two 2-D sides. However, with that said, I usually end up drawing in the loose edges. I really think the one's artistic talents grow as he/she continues to develop and create new ideas and plans. In addition, you might check wood carving sites for 3-D animal patterns/templates. Good luck and welcome aboard... scroll mouse 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
heppnerguy Posted January 6, 2015 Report Share Posted January 6, 2015 Look at Homer and Carol Bishops posts here. They make 3 D intarsia pieces. they sell their patterns but Homer posted one of them to download free here on The Village. He entitled it something like " here is a challenge for anyone" of something similar to that. Go look it up.

scroll mouse Posted January 7, 2015 Author Report Share Posted January 7, 2015 Thanks guys for the info Today i have bought my scroll saw :-) Finally. The scroll saw look smaller than on the website But it would be a nice one to start with. I was printing a dolphin last time, and it printed it verry smal :-( I can't seem to figure out how i can make a piece on ( sketch up ) and print it out exactly with the sizes i have on the software. I think it is the printer software, but brother says it is sketch up Someone any idea? tomorow i'll start on a bit scrolling greetz Gregory Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oldhudson Posted January 8, 2015 Report Share Posted January 8, 2015 Welcome to the forum. Great people here. On my 'bucket list' has always been a desire to see the Formula 1 race at Spa-Francorchamps... in my mind I can see them going through Eau Rouge and up the Kemmel Straight. scroll mouse 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

heppnerguy Posted January 8, 2015 Report Share Posted January 8, 2015 Gregory, You might want to download, GIMP or/and inkscape. They are both free software and there are quite a few tutorial videos here in The Village forum to help you to learn and understand these programs. You will find the free videos in the university tab as you scroll down the forum tabs. Many here use these programs for making patterns and it is easy to make the patterns the exact size you want them to be. Give it a try, any questions can be answered in regards to these programs.

Bendita Posted January 12, 2015 Report Share Posted January 12, 2015 Hello Gregory welcome to the forum I noticed on the picture of your scroll saw that its a pin type meaning the blade has 2 little pins in them 1 on each end which will cause you a lot of frustration in the future if possible seek out a saw that takes either both or pinless believe me you won'y regret it. You see even in compound cutting you need to drill a hole to put your blade in so with the pin type machines your hole needs to be much larger then say a pinless blade. just saying. ../Hans Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scroll mouse Posted June 29, 2015 Author Report Share Posted June 29, 2015 dear Bendita, I can use pin or pinless with my scrollsaw. best regards Gregory Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

savethebeer Posted September 5, 2015 Report Share Posted September 5, 2015 Hello Gregory. I downloaded a book ages ago called 3D scroll saw techniques, patterns & techniques, by Henry Berns, its published by Fox books. Bob Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aubec Posted September 5, 2015 Report Share Posted September 5, 2015 I would recommend having a look at Diana Thompson's website for 3d or compound cut animals. http://www.scrollsawinspirations.com Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
