He made me a lot of money in my 401K, lets see if he can make me a little more money tomorrow at a market.  LOL.

I stacked cut 2, 1/8" BB ply with a 2/0 FD spiral.  I'm started to feel comfortable now with spirals, took a while though!  I used 1/4" BB ply as the backers. Finished size is 11" x 14".   Haven't set up at a market for a couple of years. Taking some pens and key chains made on the lathe and some scrollsaw items.  Also some other items that I have been making.

Btw, I posted this for your enjoyment and thoughts as a scrollsaw piece, not as a political piece.

I  have to say, this is the best pattern I have seen of President Trump. For a Trump fan, it will have to be a "got to have' piece. Good luck on your coming sale and congratulations on your spiral accomplishment. I have always said that if one decides to spend the time to understand the spiral, they will never be disappointed at their efforts to learn them, as you have proven here.

I have tried Spiral Blades several times🥴 I will keep trying. A Most Excellent job on Trump. Wish you all the Luck on your upcoming sales.👍👍

That 's the spirit. It only takes some practice to get those spirals working for you. I never use a spiral larger then a #2 and usually like to stay with a #1 or smaller.
