Pelican Puzzle

[Denny Knappen]

I finished it this weekend. A Pelican puzzle pattern by Harvey Blyer. I used 3/4" Poplar approximately 6" x 8". Cut on the Pegas Scroll Saw using Pegas #3 MGT blades. After a light sanding with a Mac Mop, dipped in diluted Shellac and another light sanding. Comments welcome.

Fabulous work Denny.
We have lots of pelicans near to us, they fly over regularly, they are one of my favorite birds.

AWESOME!!! It took a little while for me to get it set properly. I had to adjust the upper arm tension and align the blade clamps so they were centered properly in the table hole, but WOW, what a difference. The WEN I was using gave me good service considering it is a $100 saw. The vibration wasn't bad at all, it was just having to replace the blade clamps about every month. The new Pegas is heavy, quiet and extremely smooth! It will pass the nickle test throughout the entire speed range. Being able to lift the upper arm to feed blades and then simply moving a lever to apply tension makes cutting so much simpler and FASTER! I highly recommend the Pegas-30 and I also recommend Artcraftersonline.com as the dealer of choice. I haven't cut a piece that would require the 30-inch throat but I have a pattern that will require this as soon as I purchase the wood I plan to use. I'll also have to build a couple side stands to support the piece.

Thanks again, Denny for the great service and fantastic deal.
