Just a note about that spectraply wood yes it does come in sheets and you can custom order as well. They run sales many times during the year. It is nice stuff to work with. I had shown these baskets before but they do not fit in this category because a scroll saw was not used. I cut these up using a tablesaw all the way. But this sheet is called bummblebee. The difference between the two baskets is the order which the layers were glued. One is just the opposite the other.

Oh, I might as well... made the Five Dragon box to put old nuts and bolts in, the Dutch box is where I throw my used and broken scroll saw blades.  Then  I made two Hamsa boxes to put ear wax in which is what I use make it easier to get screws screwed in.

Jim, it is truly magnificent mate..
I don't know a kid in the world (or an adult for that matter) who wouldn't be over the moon to have one of those.

OK -- Using up some strips of Yellow Heart and Purple Heart -- scroll saw to cut the rings and lathe to shape them.

I would,never try that on my lathe. I'm not brave enough. I would always be afraid it would blow up in my face. You are not only brave but extremely talented also!

I know, some of you folks have seen these before and are probably tired of me posting them but for the folks who may not have seen them, these are 3 of my baskets that I am now making for folks. I enlarged the pattern and will be turning out some bigger ones soon.

A few years back, I bought a book called "Boxes, Bowls & Baskets". It's out of print now but there are used ones floating around. The pattern is by John Nelson.
