Popular Post Gonzo Posted January 22, 2018 Popular Post Report Share Posted January 22, 2018 A Steve Goode pattern. In the original pattern, the dove is just cut out. I thought I'd do an inlay. First picture is inlay. Second picture is finished piece. Walnut on maple, using FD UR3 blade. Spray shellac for finish. I might have to take some steel wool to them to knock down the gloss. My sister asked me to make six of them for her Confirmation students. Thanks to Trackman for blade recommendation and to Hotshot for tutorial. (Can you find the blade entrance hole in the in-lay?) Doing inlay is a lot of fun, looking forward to doing more. frankorona, Birchbark, hotshot and 9 others 11 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
meflick Posted January 22, 2018 Report Share Posted January 22, 2018 Looks great and I am sure your sister and her students will be thrilled with them. I'm guessing but is the blade entry hole at the point where the body and the wing meet on the bottom side of the wing? Thanks for showing. giving this a try is on my long list.

wombatie Posted January 23, 2018 Report Share Posted January 23, 2018 Oh boy you mastered that real fast. How many times did you practise before you were confident of a good outcome?

Believe it or not, I hot glued two pieces of 1/4 scrap to each other, set the saw to 2 degrees, cut out an oval. It worked. Piece of cake, right? Except, when it came time to cutting the real thing. I was pretty nervous cutting each one. The neat thing is, it opened a whloe new avenue with the scroll saw for me. meflick and wombatie 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
