Hawk Posted yesterday at 12:42 AM Report Share Posted yesterday at 12:42 AM In my exploration of adding color to my scrollsaw projects, and trying something new, I took an actual stained glass pattern and cut it with ⅛ ply and filling it with acrylic in place of the stained glass This time I stained one side darker that the other. So what do you think? Light or dark wood? Chris JackJones, Scrappile, Wichman and 3 others 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jollyred Posted yesterday at 12:44 AM Report Share Posted yesterday at 12:44 AM Personally, I like the light stain better. Both are very good looking. Tom JJB and Hawk 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Michael B. Posted yesterday at 01:25 AM Report Share Posted yesterday at 01:25 AM Wow! Those look terrific. If I had to choose, I like the light color better. It pops better with the other colors. barb.j.enders 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Millwab Posted yesterday at 01:31 AM Report Share Posted yesterday at 01:31 AM Definitely the light Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hawk Posted yesterday at 03:38 AM Author Report Share Posted yesterday at 03:38 AM It's actually 2 sides of the same project, I think of it as a sun catcher, looks the same from both sides. But it seems that the preferred side is the light (natural color) wood side. My wife agrees with all of you! FrankEV 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hawk Posted 13 hours ago Author Report Share Posted 13 hours ago It's nice of you all to agree with my wife (lol) I must admit I prefer the natural (light) side also. But it had been in the back of my mind "hmmmm, I wonder what a dark stain would look like?" Which is why I had to try. Now I know, and knowing is half the battle!
