Popular Post Denny Knappen Posted April 23 Popular Post Report Share Posted April 23 Eight Standing Miniature Birdhouses patterns by the late Diana Thompson. I used Poplar for the birdhouses and Eastern Red Cedar for the birds except for the eight one, I used Lacewood. Cut on the Pegas scroll saw using Pegas #3 and #6 Super Skip blades. After sanding, a dip in diluted Shellac and another light sanding. Comments welcome.

Very nice cutting Denny; I found the patterns for these @ : https://www.thewinfieldcollection.com/product/Compound-Cut-Birdhouse-Ornaments-Project-Pattern once the winfield collection site pops up type "mini birdhouse pattern set" in the search box, then scroll all the was down to the bottom. Click on the picture of the standing birdhouses. That should get you there. Edited April 24 by jerry walters Wichman and MarieC 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree, Pete, but when I like a pattern, especially one of Diana's I bite the bullet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
