Travis Posted November 1, 2021 Report Share Posted November 1, 2021 The last couple of years has been rough. But despite everything, I think we still have a lot to be thankful for. I think that's why I love this season, it allows us to focus on what's important and be mindful of gratitude and the blessings we have in our life. This scroll saw challenge is a bit open for interpretation. It can be fall, harvest, or something you're grateful for. Inspirational signs, special gifts, or ways to mark the special moments in your life. When you post your project, share something you're thankful for. When you count your blessings, you'll be amazed how many there are. Jim Blume and Loskoppie 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post preprius Posted November 2, 2021 Popular Post Report Share Posted November 2, 2021 Well I would like to say Thanks to all in the village that helped me in the last year. I feel I learned a lot you this site. I joined last December, and have experimented with the scroll saw a bit during the weekends. Thanks to @FrankEV for bringing color to the craft of scrollsaw artwork. Thanks @OCtoolguy for advising to upgrade to a Hawk. I almost gave up the hobby. Once I got the Hawk quite a bit LESS frustration occured. He advises many people not just me. Thanks @trailfndr "Lee" for showing me great Intarsia projects. Also @Dave Monk his stuff inpires everyone. @GrampaJim and @White horse @Scrappile all give great tips and super looking projects. All the bowl guys gave me good tips. @Tbow388 he makes them look easy and pretty. @crupiea his detailed lettered plaques are inspiring. Thanks Travis for keeping this village running with latest software. Also because of his inkscape tutorials I can fiddle around in inkscape. Also @Rockytime Les, inspired and advised many many people, including me. But it takes everyone to form a village. Thanks for all contributers even the newbies. The newbies bring new questions and different perspectives to the projects. Scrappile, Kris Martinson, RabidAlien and 9 others 12 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tbow388 Posted November 2, 2021 Report Share Posted November 2, 2021 Thanks for the mention and the compliment. Bowls are probably my favorite. I don't make too many so I really enjoy them when I do. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post glucas4 Posted November 2, 2021 Popular Post Report Share Posted November 2, 2021 (edited) A couple of years ago, I had a stroke, resulting in loss of speech and some minor paralysis on my right side. One thing to be thankful for is using the scroll saw to improve my paralysis. The scroll saw was great therapy. This plaque was designed by me and cut on my scroll sawis made to express my feelings on being stroke survivor.. The walnut stick figure is split him into 2 pieces. It is like a puzzle where you are putting the puzzle pieces back together again. My speech is coming back, so it's back to my YouTube channel to cover various topics in this wide world of scrolling on my channel. So, I am very thankful to be a stroke survivor, who is getting many of the pieces back together and to also be a scroller which improves my coordination and allows me to express myself!

Popular Post Jim Blume Posted November 3, 2021 Popular Post Report Share Posted November 3, 2021 I suspect that if we all were to write a list of the 10 things we are most grateful for, at least 5 of them on each list would be the same. And there is nothing wrong in that. I had an old man tell me one time to go beyond the typical list of things and find the eleventh thing you are thankful for. Once you begin to go beyond your typical answers, 11 becomes 12 and so on, ever increasing. It is really amazing how many things we have to be thankful for, although it is easier to go along with those who tell you how bad things are. Today as I attempt to consider something to add to my ever increasing list of things to be grateful for, I suppose it might be time to thank all of the folks who have allowed me to be helpful to them in whatever small way it was. Yes, I am thankful to and for them, and that I can still find something purposeful to do in each new day. jr42, RabidAlien, Mark SW and 7 others 9 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RabidAlien Posted November 3, 2021 Report Share Posted November 3, 2021 Lots of things to give thanks for. And like Jim said, if I put any effort into it, I could easily cruise right on past #10.

The tail feathers were at 90 degrees to the body and head though . The OSB gave it an autumn look to it.

Fedido Posted November 28, 2021 Report Share Posted November 28, 2021 Just finished this and I am thankful for the love of a lab. I am blessed to have a sweetheart.
