Captain Jack Posted June 11, 2015 Report Share Posted June 11, 2015 I made this box as an anniversary gift for my wife. I made the scroll saw pattern in Photoshop. The inlay I had to do with the drill press and a plug cutter, as the dots are only about 1/4 inch. Each dot is a separate species of wood, each commonly found in important places she's lived in her life: Germany, England, Hawaii, Utah, Michigan, and Indiana (the heart itself). amazingkevin and Scrappile 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phantom Scroller Posted June 11, 2015 Report Share Posted June 11, 2015 Hi Jack good work great idea on the plug cutter use for the dots, never thought of using it for that. Roly Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
heppnerguy Posted June 11, 2015 Report Share Posted June 11, 2015 way to go.. your pattern is pleasing to the eye and attractive. Your work here, is really nice and the fact that you made it for your wife, is the biggest plus you can get for any effort. I love giving my work as gifts and my bride is my favorite person of all to give to Dick heppnerguy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
