Air Force Vet

[Denny Knappen]

I am skipping Halloween and working on Veteran's Day. This is a Steve Good pattern dating back to 2010. I will have all five branches. The wood is 1/4" Baltic Birch plywood and backed with 3/8" Baltic Birch plywood stained Azure with SameN stain. Cut on the Pegas Scroll Saw at ArtCrafters using Pegas #1R MGT blades. The finish is 3 coats spray Polyurethane Clear Satin sanding with a Mac Mop between sprays

As a veteran I like it a lot. Very nice. I have often thought about doing all 5 branches myself, just never seem to get around to doing them. Show us the others when you get a chance.

Nice job Denny. I'm also an Air Force Vet. Was thinking about doing that but never did. Can't do anything right now anyway. All my tools are on there way to Florida. They should be starting to build our new house next week. Can't wait to get back cutting. Probably not until March. I'll order my new saw around then from you.
