I stack cut three at a time. I finish them like I do every scroll saw project. Soak in a 50/50 mix of boiled linseed oil and mineral spirits. I shake them off the wipe off the excess oil with clean shop paper towels. In the weather we have had here, the are dry in 24 hours. I then topcoat with Deft semigloss spray lacquer. I then buff them with a sheet of brown paper grocery bag. Scrolling Steve 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have them displayed on small artificial Chritmas trees. I really don't make much on them, but they attract the customer to see the rest of my goodies.
