Coat of Arms

[flarud]

A co-worker asked if I could make her Family's Coat of Arms.  I put out a request for a pattern here and got two very nice designs.  A big thanks goes out to Dutchscroller and Birchbark!  I let the co-worker pick the design of her choice.   This is the first scroll saw piece that I have made in the last 6 months except for a couple small Christmas ornaments, I have been spending my time making pens on my lathe.  Here is the pattern and the finished piece.  I used the pattern made by Birchbark, thanks Russell!  I used 1/4" BB for the top piece and 1/2" BB for the backer.  I used vinyl for the colors.  Started off using my go to blade, Olsen #2 reverse then switched to a Flying Dutchman similar size just for the heck of it.  I will take it to work today, hope she likes it!

Nice work.

I like the idea of the wood rivets/mails-- as fasteners too.

Very nice work.   

Was that pattern her family's actual coat of arms?

[flarud]

Thanks everyone.  I wish I could say that it was a fun cut but I had convinced myself before even starting that it wouldn't turn out very good. LOL  

Frank, yes as far as I know.   She sent me a picture of what she wanted and Birchbark turned it into a pattern for me.  Here is what she sent to me.

Nice work @Birchbark

[Birchbark]

I think it came out great, you did an awesome job on a very difficult cutting.  I;m sure she loved it.  Thank you for taking the time to post a picture for us.

Glad I could help.
