Steve, in observing how you secured the glass, I notice that you managed to cut the glass in a perfect circle.  I'm OK at glass cutting, but not nearly as good as you.  Because of this, your method would not work well for me.  I'm attaching a photo of how I secured the glass with a back view of the 'sort of oval' glass that I cut for Fiona's 'Blue Tits on Hawthorn".

Frank PelIow, I don’t know if you will see this as I just saw your comment on my cutting the circle in glass. Long before I started scrolling I cut many, many stained glass projects, including Tiffany lamp reproductions, kaleidoscopes, and large and small flat panel projects. I sold, or gifted most of them, but these are a couple that I kept. Cutting a circle is not too difficult if you have the tools and techniques. I like tucking the glass in with the recessed cut with the scrollsaw, as I think it gives a tidy finished product.

 Nice cutting on all of the scrollings  that you showed! (BTW,I am Old Joe, not Steve, and I am the one that cut circles)
