loftyhermes Posted September 1, 2018 Report Posted September 1, 2018 (edited) Just done a two day craft fair at Papplewick Pumping Station, http://www.papplewickpumpingstation.co.uk with my 5 yr old grandson and between us we managed to cut a Giraffe (he peddled) as well as some keyrings and other stuff on a Hobbies A1 treadle saw. So as a thank you for his help I made him this Steve Good Toy. ball toy.mp4 Edited September 1, 2018 by loftyhermes John B, jollyred, Scrappile and 5 others 8 Quote

Ptofimpact Posted September 1, 2018 Report Posted September 1, 2018 Very nice work, and Treadle saw, like watching Roy Underhill loftyhermes 1 Quote
heppnerguy Posted September 1, 2018 Report Posted September 1, 2018 When I saw the saw, I knew that would have a big impact on most everyone. It is really cool. The giraffe cutting is a fun pattern indeed and you did it justice for sure. The bearing toy will keep in busy for a long time. I bet he will be sharing the fun with his friends too. I do not believe that I have ever seen that one before Dick heppnerguy loftyhermes 1 Quote
Rockytime Posted September 2, 2018 Report Posted September 2, 2018 Great cutting and the treadle scroll saw is wonderful to see. Thank you very much! loftyhermes 1 Quote
loftyhermes Posted September 2, 2018 Author Report Posted September 2, 2018 Thanks for the comments, I do like taking the old saw out to demonstrate, it's amazing how many old boys come and say that they or their dad had one of those when they were young, sometimes it was used in the kitchen. heppnerguy 1 Quote
