Popular Post Insane Dust Maker Posted October 2, 2023 Popular Post Report Share Posted October 2, 2023 (edited) Just finished this beautiful patter by Russ Beard, double stack cut on 4mm Birch Plywood using a #0 Niqua straight pin less blade. Needs to be varnished and framed. I have cut another five Russ Beard pattern but I’m not ready to post them yet. My workshop is in turmoil at the moment as we are packing and relocating to Cape Town, South Africa. So I’m very limited as to what I can do at the moment. Love doing these Fretwork Complex cuts, gives me great satisfaction.

FrankEV Posted October 2, 2023 Report Share Posted October 2, 2023 Very Nice. The cutting looks great and the coloring is spot on. Curious, what is the Backer? Dosn't look like wood. Looks like poster board or the like. Kind of too plain for my taste. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JessL Posted October 2, 2023 Report Share Posted October 2, 2023 Beautiful! Absolutely love it. Amazing to me that you did all this with a straight blade. Kudo's!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Insane Dust Maker Posted October 2, 2023 Author Report Share Posted October 2, 2023 Frank that’s just a board I’m using until I do the framing, the Leopard will be mounted on a 3mm supawood backer and then I choose the right color board and texture.

Scrappile Posted October 2, 2023 Report Share Posted October 2, 2023 (edited) Very well done. Hope you repost it after you get it framed. Beautiful. What did you use for coloring. Stain? Paint? Edited October 2, 2023 by Scrappile Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What did you use for coloring. Stain? Paint? Scrappile I used a local product here in South Africa, the Leopard received one coat of Medium Oak and the tree was Antique Oak also just one coat. I feel I got the counting I had in mind based on the hundreds of photographs I have of them. Depending on the area the could be a colour variance.

MarieC Posted October 3, 2023 Report Share Posted October 3, 2023 That is beautiful. Did you carve the tree branch that the Leopard is on or did you scroll saw it and added a dark backer board? Again really nice work! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marie, it’s all one scroll saw pattern, and the Leopard and tree were stained with a local product we get here in South Africa. The Leopards colouring can vary from area to area.
