Hell of a job on that. Who'd the pattern by. I might want to try making that. Yes, sir... That is absolutely the first project I ever attempted using a scroll saw... In fact, I bought my first scroll saw especially to do it... Nobody was around at the time to tell me it would be a difficult project for a beginner.. I guess that may be why I was able to pull it off... The plan was purchased from Wildwood Designs who bought Cherry Tree Toys a bunch of years back...

I can see why you’re wife would love it. It is not the cost of the saw that matters; it is the skills of the operator that make the difference between average and great work. For a FIRST project-- or any other project this is an excellent JOB! Greg Slagle, Jim McDonald, OCtoolguy and 1 other 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My 2nd one was fairly unremarkable but my 3rd one, to this day, remains my favorite woodworking project I've ever completed... Edit: Ok, to clarify, this wasn't technically my 3rd scroll saw project completed... It was technically my 3rd scroll saw project started... It took me all of five years to actually complete the dome clock because it moved around with me unfinished from base to base while I was in the Air Force...
