greasemonkeyredneck Posted September 12, 2009 Report Share Posted September 12, 2009 Here's my latest cuttings. Angel Curio Shelf Wildlife Curio Shelf Home Sweet Home Curio Shelf To give you an idea how easy these are, here a couple of photos of a day's work. Now I say a day's work, I cut about five hours yesterday evening and a little less than three today. That's around eight hours for three shelves. I think that puts them in the easy category. If anyone want to cut some of these, the plans can be bought at woodcraftplans.com . They can be found in the scrollsaw corner section. They're reasonably priced at $7 bucks for each. They also have another similar one called an Elegant Scrolled Shelf. I didn't care for the looks of it though. Some of you might. Also, be sure to click the next button at the end of the fifth page in scrollsaw corner. He's recently added more plans for a total of 416 scroll related plans. They recently aquired some of the plans from the Berry Basket Collection. Anyone familiar with the Berry Basket can tell you they are quality plans that are timeless in style. I've ordered a lot of plans from this site and have always had good service and great plans from them. They even replaced some plans for me one time for free that never arrived. Some other sites won't do that without fileing a claim with the post office first, which can take months. Check them out. They are a family run business.

shadylady0447 Posted September 13, 2009 Report Share Posted September 13, 2009 Those all look great, greasemonkey! I bought the Berry Basket Collection when they were selling it and all of those shelves are in the collection. You did a terrific job on all of them. Thanks for showing us.

Travis Posted September 16, 2009 Report Share Posted September 16, 2009 Those turned out great! I have the Berry Basket CD as well. Might have to dig it out and try my hand at them. I like the elk one especially. Nicely done! WoodcraftPlans.com has a lot of great patterns. They bought out the Berry Basket Collection a little while ago (Great American Scroll Saw Patterns). They have a lot of other neat projects too. They even have a banner ad on SSV. If anybody decides to buy from them, click the banner first. That helps to support SSV.

greasemonkeyredneck Posted September 17, 2009 Author Report Share Posted September 17, 2009 Really well done...Look like poplar is that correct? Cottonwood actually. I'd never heard of cottonwood untill last year when I started getting this wood for free. It's reall nice wood. It cuts smooth and has nice grain patterns. My only complaint with it is that it is bad about tearouts on the planer. I was planning on staining these, but after getting them done, I liked them enough that I decided to leave them nude.
