Furniture

[Eplfan2011]

I'm going to assume that there are members that do other types of woodwork such as furniture building. Do any of you combine your skills and build scrollsaw designs into aprons, table tops and panels.

 I'm definitely going to try this when I've developed my skills enough to do passable work.

Well I did once but it wasn't much scrolling.. I built a morris chair.  The wide panels in the sides the chair and foot stool were blank.. I added the sail boat on the chair and the light house on footstool... That was back when I had my first scroll saw.. A Craftsman, that I had to get down on my knees to mount the blade in the bottom clamp, so it was back when I did very little scrolling..

I made this many years ago. The pattern was from Scrolleronline (I think). It was damaged a few years ago and I hope to make another one this fall/winter.

interesting.

it look like the back has 3 pieces.  but only trees on ends are narrow. That puts the main center piece really long.  

I can think of 2 possible ways to do this 1) spiral blades is used   OR  2) jig saw.

Did you have another way?

Me.

Spiral blade. I used 1/2" plywood with a 1/4" backer. Next one will have a 1/2" backer.

I recently bought this pattern for a winter project.  I plan to use the miter saw extensions to support the ends, I will be using spiral blades.

The furniture looks great. As much as I build I never thought about combining the two. But lately I’ve been building live edge dining tables. Great money maker for me. Below are my last two and I have another that will be done next week .
