Popular Post FrankEV Posted August 18, 2020 Popular Post Report Share Posted August 18, 2020 (edited) First I must give a big shout out and thank you to Foxfold for graciously sharing her Pattern. I modified the pattern slightly to format it to fit a standard 8x10 photograph frame. This was my first attempt at using 1/8" thk Baltic Birch plywood. Top and bottom layer is the same 1/8" thk BB plywood. The bottom layer is painted Black. Not wanting to copy Foxfold's project eactly, I decided to attempt to make the sene a little more dramatic by creating a moonlit sky. I actualy bleached the area for the moon and then attempted to fade the sky out to a darker edges using a micture of stain colors from natural to ebony. I think the effect came out fairly nice. The BB Plywood cut OK but the finished surface wood is quite stringy (for lack of a better word) and does not produce as clean a cut or sand up as nice as the Columbia Forest 5/32 and 1/4 purebond 12" X19" plywood project panels I have been using which I get shipped to my home from Home Depot. I purchased some 1/4 BB also and will have to give it a try. However, I'm leaning towards the Idea of using the BB mostly for backers. A better pic is needed. Needed to take the pic with natural light but it has been raining like crazy all day. .

Exceptional quality from a master class Scroller.Keep your work coming!!! You, and all, are making me feel TOOOOOOOO good. I know I jumped to a Pegas real quick, and although I do have some wood working experience, I have only been scroling for a few months now. I'm no Master Scroller, that is for sure. I'm just a newbie trying to do the best I can. Thanks, Thanks, Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
