Popular Post Scrappile Posted October 6, 2016 Popular Post Report Share Posted October 6, 2016 Been wanting to do this pattern for a long time. Not sure where I got the pattern. The black walnut is 1/4" and the BB is 1/8. The BB was for support, but turned out good enough I didn't want to throw it away. I kinda like the wood I have them sitting on and may use it as a backer, not sure if I should frame one or make it a circle around the tree. Kinda like a 1/4" bigger than the tree circle.

Lucky2 Posted October 6, 2016 Report Share Posted October 6, 2016 Paul, both pieces look good, I think a dark backer would look good on the BB one. And that a lighter backer would work on the walnut one best, the contrast in the wood should look great. Len Scrappile 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave Monk Posted October 6, 2016 Report Share Posted October 6, 2016 Agree with Len on the backers. They look great. How big are they? dave Scrappile 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

penquin Posted October 6, 2016 Report Share Posted October 6, 2016 Great looking cutting. Like both, but would use a backer on them. Thanks for showing them to us. jim penquin Scrappile 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rjR Posted October 6, 2016 Report Share Posted October 6, 2016 Both re very fine! Another idea would be a slice of log left with live edge and only slightly larger as a backer; especially a lighter wood for the walnut one.

wombatie Posted October 6, 2016 Report Share Posted October 6, 2016 I agree with Len on the backers and I would make both of them round. I love the pattern and you did a great job cutting. If you ever remember where you got the pattern from I would love to know. Marg Scrappile 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With all the patterns of this sort out there,I think you pinned it down to this being the best one.Good job Scrappile 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bill WIlson Posted October 6, 2016 Report Share Posted October 6, 2016 I really like the suggestion made to mount them to a slice of live edge slab. I think that would look awesome. Nice cutting! Scrappile 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ron Johnson Posted October 6, 2016 Report Share Posted October 6, 2016 Very nicely done Paul. Could be wrong but seems to me I recall seeing this pattern in the Crearive Arts and Crafts magazine when it was still being published.

Rob Posted October 6, 2016 Report Share Posted October 6, 2016 Very nice. I mean to cut one of those sometime but have not got around to it yet. Rob Scrappile 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scrappile Posted October 6, 2016 Author Report Share Posted October 6, 2016 I see that "Fish" has cut this pattern and he attributes Elaine and Bill Snell, Black Cat Art Works as the designers. I did not get it there as best I remember. Maybe I should not have the pattern, I know I got it a couple years ago when I first started scrolling. Seriously know not where.
