Popular Post heppnerguy Posted September 2, 2019 Popular Post Report Share Posted September 2, 2019 Every time I see a project that Crupia (Tony ), posts, I am always in awe and loving what he does. So I kind of studied what process he might be using and decided to give that method a try. I chatted with Tony and he explained what I needed to do. He even sent me a pattern to try it out on. I decided to find the easiest possible pattern for starters and came across one the Bobscroll had made. I asked him if it would be ok to change the pattern just enough so I could try a new method of scrolling for me. He agreed that it was ok to do and when I finished the experimental project, I showed it to him and received his permission to post it. Keep in mind that is only an experiment to see if I could perhaps master this style in the future. For that reason I did not make the effort to pick the backer board for any reason then to demonstrate to Tony and Bob what is was that I am tryin to do After showing it to Tony, he gave me some advice on what I can do to make things better on my next project of his style. I have learned a lot and I am deciding to use this method to make some cartoon plaques for my grand kids. I like how colorful they can be. That being said, I decided to share this with all of you so that by doing so, you can see that I have learned something in my efforts.

It really is not difficult. I have made another pattern that I am going to try next. I love how they come out and my next hopefully will be a lot better then the first one.

OCtoolguy Posted September 4, 2019 Report Share Posted September 4, 2019 I admit to not being the brightest bulb in the bunch. So, with that said, what exactly is the technique you are referring to? I am not artistic in the least so I'm not picking up on what it is you are talking about. I see a very well done piece but I'm not sure what it is that you are calling "technique". Can you please enlighten me. I am humbled by your work. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JimErn Posted September 4, 2019 Report Share Posted September 4, 2019 To put a name on it, I think the bird is what they call segmentation, with the mountain as fretwork this is the best explanation of segmentation vs intarsia I have found, if I am correct of course https://forum.scrollsawer.com/forum/scroll-saw/intarsia-inlay-and-segmentation/19253-what-s-the-difference-between-intarsia-segmentation Rockytime 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ray, It is simply a segmentation but you use the outlining and cut out the insides of the pattern. Then you place the inside pieces that you have cut back inside the lines they were cut from. So you see, you are utilizing the outlining that forms all this pieces and painting it black with canned spray paint. You paint the inside pieces in the same manner before replacing them into the outlined black piece. you glue the outline to your backer board and then when it dries you simply re-insert them where they were cut from originally. when all the glued pieces are dry you can then put on whatever finish you like. If this does not explain it well enough, let me know and I will try to figure out how to explain it a little better Dick heppnerguy OCtoolguy 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A good representation of segmentation would be to cut on the outlines of each piece of a puzzle and then putting the puzzle together. Because it is cut from one piece of wood, everything fits perfectly no matter what the shapes are. The difference in what I am trying to do in my above plaque is not cut the pattern outline but rather cut on either side of the pattern lines and keeping the outline in tact as one piece, Then, not put the segmented pieces together with one another but rather putting them back into the middle of the outlines from whence they came. So that makes the rather heavy looking lines in my above piece. With straight segmentation one is merely using the outlines as a guide and the outline is never seen again. On mine, I am saving the outline by cutting each piece on the 'inside and outside' of the lines and keeping the guide lines as a frame in which to replace my pattern pieces.

OCtoolguy Posted September 5, 2019 Report Share Posted September 5, 2019 Thanks Dick. I now understand. I enlarged your pic as much as I could to try to see what you have just explained but I couldn't keep tge detail. Now I know what I couldn't see. A great idea and something to put in my bucket. heppnerguy 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
