Birchbark Posted March 8, 2015 Report Share Posted March 8, 2015 I realize this isn't anything awesome like the rest of you cut. But it is my second attempt with my $5.00 scroll saw and blades i got from Home Depot. My friend lost a button off of her purse, i said i could make her one. She wanted a peace symbol. This is what i came up with. I can see all the imperfections. lol. But still it was fun.

Scrolling Steve Posted March 8, 2015 Report Share Posted March 8, 2015 (edited) Nice job, Russell!....The Peace button may be more Valuable than your 5.00 saw !! Edited March 8, 2015 by Scrolling Steve Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bobscroll Posted March 8, 2015 Report Share Posted March 8, 2015 Hey Russell, That looks so peaceful lol, You did alright! Bob Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve Curtis Posted March 8, 2015 Report Share Posted March 8, 2015 Russell, That is totally awesome my friend!! And, What! A $5.00 scroll saw? Or was that the cost of the blades? I know a scroll saw is not $5 bucks just starting up a joke. I think you are on to something with that button. You might strike it rich if you come up with lots of different kinds. I have seen so many people collecting buttons. Steve Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DWSUDEKUM Posted March 8, 2015 Report Share Posted March 8, 2015 Russell that is very nicely done. Look out though that little button could become a monster. There are a lot of teens that like that symbol I can foresee requests for necklaces, earrings, buttons things like that. Keep up the great work. Thanks for sharing this with us.

Phantom Scroller Posted March 8, 2015 Report Share Posted March 8, 2015 Actual Russ if you cut a few of them they might just sell well in a show they could be sprayed different colours and look good on a necklace. Roly Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Birchbark Posted March 10, 2015 Author Report Share Posted March 10, 2015 Thanks guys, I cut it out of a piece of quarter inch mahogany. I think it would look better with some finish, but she wanted it "natural" Hippie chick that she is. Russell, That is totally awesome my friend!! And, What! A $5.00 scroll saw? Or was that the cost of the blades? I know a scroll saw is not $5 bucks just starting up a joke. I think you are on to something with that button. You might strike it rich if you come up with lots of different kinds. I have seen so many people collecting buttons. Steve Yep, five dollar scrollsaw on Craigslist. Works great. Not variable speed and only takes pin end blades, but it isn't a bad deal for a working saw. Thanks again for the encouragement, i guesss i should have stack cut this one.

Steve Curtis Posted March 10, 2015 Report Share Posted March 10, 2015 WOW! That is a find of a life time. I do a great deal of garage and yard sales, maybe I will get lucky this year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
