Love, Hope, Faith Candle Tray

[Denny Knappen]

This project was finished on Monday, June 27th.  The pattern is by Sheila Landry and purchased from her website.  I used 1/2" Ash with nice grain.  The blade used was FD UR #3.  One coat of 50% BLO and one coat of spray Shellac.  Comments welcome.

You my friend are a scroll saw artist. Being a beginner it's always great when the artist explains what woods and finishes was used in their project so rookies like myself can get a feel for the craft. Thanks for sharing.

 

Question.... what does BLO stand for....?

[Denny Knappen]

Thanks, Steve, the grain of the Ash really shows.

 

Cliff, BLO stands for Boiled Linseed Oil.  I use it with Mineral Spirits at 50%.

Nice project ,I tryied cutting ash 1" thick and it took forever to cut.My hat is off to you for sticking it out to the end with slow cutting!

Very nice Denny. I never used any ash. I'll have try and find some . I like the grain.

That looks great.  It looks as if the letters have been written on the wood.  Well done.

Thanks all for the nice comments.

 

Dave, this project was dipped.  I have an old 9" pie tin and it works great for projects like this one.

 

Kevin, this project was 1/2" Ash, so fairly easy to cut.

Today, I received a comment from Sheila Landry.  Always nice to have positive comments from the designer.
