rdatelle Posted October 6, 2016 Report Share Posted October 6, 2016 Well I decided to give this a try. I was a little Leary but I did it anyway. I want to thank Scott for the idea and the pattern. I don't think it came out as good as Scotts. I'm giving this to my Grandson who just started taking Saxophone lessons. I hope he likes it. I made this out of pine so it would be easy to cut.I can see why Scott doesn't want to do to many of these. There a pain in the butt. Tough to follow the lines. I don't think I'll be doing any more of these. Thanks again Scott. lawson56 and Fish 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lucky2 Posted October 7, 2016 Report Share Posted October 7, 2016 Ralph, it might have been a PITA to cut, but, you mastered it. There sure was some intricate cuts in the shaft of the sax, this is one to be proud of. Len Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rjR Posted October 7, 2016 Report Share Posted October 7, 2016 Very well done! Even if you had to argue with that "self" guy! We find things we never thought that we could do; we can do, by trying! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rjR Posted October 7, 2016 Report Share Posted October 7, 2016 Very well done! Even if you had to argue with that "self" guy to do it. We find that we can do a lot of things that we never thought that we could. One of the very, very few advantages of poverty; is it forces us to try things we otherwise would have paid someone else to just do! Because of of those past circumstances; I can now do many more things than I otherwise would have been able to. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

meflick Posted October 9, 2016 Report Share Posted October 9, 2016 Glad you tried it. Your grandson will cherish it that much more because you cut it. We have a professional sax player in DH family who would love one but definitely presently outsid of my entry level skills. Thanks for sharing.
