Smudger Posted May 30, 2016 Report Posted May 30, 2016 Had a go at making a scroll saw shell, there's a few bits that didn't go quite to plan but for a first attempt I'm quite pleased with how it came out. It just needs a few coats of shellac. amazingkevin, bobscroll, neptun and 3 others 6 Quote

DWSUDEKUM Posted May 31, 2016 Report Posted May 31, 2016 That came out great Andrew especially for a first attempt. You will find I am sure that each shell will get a bit easier and the hardest part is the sanding hehe. Thanks for sharing this with us. DW Smudger 1 Quote
Kepy Posted May 31, 2016 Report Posted May 31, 2016 Well done but definitely too much sanding for me. Smudger 1 Quote
