2020 Dodge Challenger Scat Pack Clock

[GusGustin]

FINALLY DONE. Lots of stuff going on .. not able to work in the garage too much lately - and - finally got this one done.

I really like the piece of burl walnut I put it on - came from that source I have here - he thinks I'm using it for firewood, I think. hahahahaha

And that Maple - that used to be part of a HEADBOARD for a Queen Bed someone was giving away. 

Now ---- it's a clock. hahahahaha .. I love this scroll saw stuff!

I used a #1 NIQUA (Flying Dutchman) - and a 2/0 Pegas on some of it.

Pattern is in the library - but - I would do a few things different. The stripes on the back - very delicate - I would stop them before they get to the top of the trunk under the spoiler. And I made a few changes on the fly near the headlights and things. I think it came out ok.  The pattern was made from a picture I took of my son's car.

I assume you are giving this one to your son. People really like their cars and when they get something that has that connection, you could not make them any happier

Yep .. Made the SHELBY I put in the pattern catalog for one son - just bought the Shelby - and this one for the other son - just bought the Challenger.

I think they will love 'em - and just like the cars themselves - will compete over which I did the better job cutting hahahahaha .. 

"Mine's walnut - he loves me more!"

"Mine's Maple and Walnut - I'm his favorite!"

hahahahahaha
