Popular Post JimErn Posted November 18, 2019 Popular Post Report Posted November 18, 2019 So after seeing the state of MI that @Nickel Falls did in this thread I went to his reference at scrolleronline.com I was all set to buy the Texas pattern, but it did not trip my trigger at all, so I fired up inkscape frankorona, Scrappile, jollyred and 10 others 13 Quote
Denny Knappen Posted November 18, 2019 Report Posted November 18, 2019 Jim, good thing you did not pull the trigger. That is a wonderful design and cutting. JimErn 1 Quote
spirithorse Posted November 18, 2019 Report Posted November 18, 2019 Nice work, Jim, I did not look up the Texas pattern on scrolleronline but, your version is a winner! Thanks for sharing and God Bless! Spirithorse JimErn 1 Quote
RabidAlien Posted November 18, 2019 Report Posted November 18, 2019 Nice!!! Every time I see these, I always wonder if anyone's ever cut all 50 and made their own US map? Quote
OzarkSawdust Posted November 18, 2019 Report Posted November 18, 2019 Nice design and cut Jim! I'm working on a couple of ideas. Where do you get things like the rider, steer, etc. and how do you get them into Inkscape? I think I can work with them once I get it into the program. Quote

I do a google search, for say oil rig silhouette, the word silhouette is important or you get all kinds of drawings and pics have inkscape open, right click on the silhouette you want and select copy, in inkscape right click select paste and say yes to the prompt then use path menu, trace bitmap, set the stroke and fill to the color of you choice, resize and position OzarkSawdust 1 Quote
Gordster Posted November 18, 2019 Report Posted November 18, 2019 Well done,must try something for here where I live.. Quote

I'll try it this evening. Once you've done it a few times it becomes second nature...it's just trying to do something the first time that's hard. Quote
Scrappile Posted November 18, 2019 Report Posted November 18, 2019 Saw your title and thought oh, oh, wife caught him!!! Glad it wasn't that! Nice work. Nickel Falls 1 Quote
oldhudson Posted November 19, 2019 Report Posted November 19, 2019 Very good design. I too went to that site and was pretty disappointed with the designs. Quote
meflick Posted November 19, 2019 Report Posted November 19, 2019 Nice work on crafting your own pattern, any Texan would be thrilled with that I suspect. Thanks for showing. Quote
Rockytime Posted November 19, 2019 Report Posted November 19, 2019 Great design you created. My states North Dakota and Colorado have boring border shapes! Quote
wombatie Posted November 19, 2019 Report Posted November 19, 2019 Thats what I think of when I think of Texas and I have never been. Great idea and great work. Marg Quote
lawson56 Posted November 19, 2019 Report Posted November 19, 2019 I Love your version.Top Notch job!!!! Quote
Frank Pellow Posted November 19, 2019 Report Posted November 19, 2019 Well done. There is no doubt that you have an appropriate representation of Texas. Like 'Gordster' says above, I too am now thinking about how to do something similar for the Canadian provinces and territories. Quote
Nickel Falls Posted November 19, 2019 Report Posted November 19, 2019 Looks AWESOME.....glad you made it work for you. Quote
