baggetta Posted April 27, 2019 Report Posted April 27, 2019 Ever wanted to own a Ferrari? Well here's your chance to make your own and take it for a test drive on your desktop. This sign is in the shape of the 1984 model (who wouldn't want one of these?). I cut mine from Sapele and used the off cut along with a poplar blank to make a rambling base for it. Should make a nice conversation piece at your next car show. Free pattern: frankorona, lawson56, Lucky2 and 5 others 8 Quote
heppnerguy Posted April 28, 2019 Report Posted April 28, 2019 That is a clever way of making a car pattern. I have, of course, seen many animal puzzles made with this idea but never a car before. I really like it when someone has a unique idea and goes for it. It always seems to catch on. Dick heppnerguy Quote
baggetta Posted May 1, 2019 Author Report Posted May 1, 2019 Thank you. Glad you are enjoying the assortment of patterns. Hope to keep it up regularly. Quote
Lucky2 Posted May 1, 2019 Report Posted May 1, 2019 Nice unique cutting, I would like to see a picture of it looking straight down on the top of it. I'm interested in the base, I would enjoy seeing how creative you were. Len Quote
baggetta Posted May 1, 2019 Author Report Posted May 1, 2019 Hi, Len. I've attached a picture looking down on the base for the Ferrari sign. The technique I use in making these bases is explained in a tutorial I offer on my Tutorial Download Page. You can get it there or if you make a donation to my FREE PATTERNS PAGE you can get it for free along with a eBook of over 30 of the free patterns, including high rez pictures of my cuts. You can also check out a couple of videos I have on making and attaching bases to the signs on My YouTube Channel Videos. I welcome any comments or questions, of course. Al B. Quote
MrsN Posted May 1, 2019 Report Posted May 1, 2019 I like your improvised scrap bases, I had noticed it on one of your other signs. They give another dimension and interest to the desk signs. Quote
