Thank you Lawson.. Not sure what my favorite clock is but my favorite ornament is the twin turbo skull fella, LOL... That said... it certainly isn't the easiest to cut though, 😂

Kevin nice work as always. Your cuttings are real professional and well cut. Finish is great as usual. I am sure these will go fast too. I have to ask is the squeezed for time pattern available anywhere or something you made?? I like that one alot. Thanks for showing. 

Thank you JT,  I figured you'd like the squeezed for time one.. I like it quite well myself and almost modified it to not have the text.. but I left it as it was for this time.. The pattern is by ARPOP.. he has a blog with several free patterns just do a search for ARPOP and you should find it.. I've cut several of his designs over the years and have many more I want to cut.. If you have trouble finding it let me know..

I will give a look for it a little later. The text makes the clock, you have to leave that. I recognize the Berry Basket clocks. Have so many of those styles and made so many over the years. I remember that name from another site but can not put my finger on it right now. Over the years there were many scrolling sites but this one has become my favorite and most active. The pattern makers here are top shelf.

Yeah arpop was quite active years ago in the forums ( I believe the free4all MSN group but not certain.. I haven't seen any newer stuff from him in quite a few years.. probably should snag all the patterns in case the site goes down.. Never know when one might come to good use..

Yes I found it and grabbed a copy. Do you remember a pattern maker that went by the name White Buffalo. I can not remember his real name but he use to do alot of unique lettering patterns. I think he too was part of that forum and group. Can not remember the wifes name too. I am sure I have his patterns somewhere in my possession. He did a series of profesional  jobs patterns with the names as the center of the project and added themes that matched the job. They were wall plaques. Boy I am going way back. The wheels are turning up there but they are just spinning and no traction.😀😀

I don't recall the name.. may have been before I got into the hobby.. I just went to look to be sure.. and my first pattern I requested to be made was dated 12/2007 so I don't think I got into the forums maybe very late 2006 or early 2007.. I had a few projects under my belt before doing the one custom request portrait that I made of a cousin who had passed away at a young age of 26..  Anyway. I'm thinking I joined up on a few of the sites about a year before making that one... Back then.. there was a lot of groups on both Yahoo and MSN.. I know MSN shut down the groups a couple of years after I got into the hobby.. Not sure... does yahoo still have the groups LOL... funny how after facebook and some of the other social media sites a lot of those groups kinda faded away.. too bad too because there was some good ones...

I do not go to many other sites for scrolling and can not follow FB or even peoples blogs. I like real forums. You are youngin in the scrolling world.😀 I probably started on forums a couple years before you. Did not own a computer. 

 

I now remember the name because I remember writing this in answer to one of Iggys questions in May of this year. There were alot of top flight pattern makers back then. here is a few.

 

I happened to look at an older Creative Woodworks and Crafts magazine 2004 just yesterday, and was looking through it and noticed so many of the long time pattern makers and saw Harveys name with many of his puzzle packages listed for sale. Saw names like Jacob and Wayne Fowler, Phiip Wilson, Vernon Brown, Shelli and Kerri Robinson, Sheila Bergner, Marilyn Carmin, Robert Hiavacek SR., Wes Demerest articles,  John Nelson, John Polhemus (the white Buffalo) Dianna Thompson, Dirk and Karen Boelman, articles written by Scott Kochendorfer, Nancy Jones, ever popular carvers Ivan Whillock, pen related articles from Joe Herrmann and all put together by a friend of mine and editor at that time Robert Becker and also one of the big sponsors Steebar who I did alot of work for back in the day. Many other noted pattern makers graced those magazines as well. I know I am leaving out quite a few.

I recognize some of these names.. many of the designers I remember the most never made it to the magazines ( that I know of ) .. Steven Mercer, Sylvia, Dave Hall, Messman, Scrollzilla, woodywoodsroller, Kevin Daily, and I know there are many many more that is just a small list off the top of my head.. There is quite a few designs from some of these in the pattern vault at the scrollsawer web site.. Scrollzilla was Rick that ran the free4all site and I think if I'm not mistaken his wife was woodywoodscroller.. Dave hall always did some awesome car patterns.. we talked about Sylvia in another thread not too long ago..Kevin Daily is one who inspired me to go into business ( he probably doesn't know that ) as that is what he did for a living for quite some time... think he got burned out and got a job after about 4-5 years of it..  and haven't really seen any new works from him in several years now.. 

I use to get the magazines back then and still have the ones I had purchased.. I stopped my subscriptions quite a few years ago ( actually when the one went out of business think it was the one you mentioned.. I used to get two different subscriptions ) because I rarely used the designs in them.. and they got to be pretty much just a book full of advertisements...  

Would love to be able to get my hands on all the magazines and books my father had.. back when he was into scroll sawing the computers weren't really around... he started fter he retired and he bought a subscription and dang near every book available back then.. He started around the mid 1980's and scrolled up through early 2000's.. had all his books in file cabinets etc.. he passed in 2003 at 80 year from a heart attack in his sleep.. Step brothers ended up with his books and saw and most went to the dumpster and the saw was sold just a few years ago.. I ended up with the very first saw he had.. a old Delta 2 speed.. believe model 40-560 I still have that saw..
