Popular Post don in brooklin on Posted November 19 Popular Post Report Share Posted November 19 Our club runs a 2 x 4 challenge each year. The objective is to use one 8 foot standard 2 x4. You don't have to use SPF but you are given special consideration if you do. This is my first entry. The pattern is by JGR. I resawed the 2 x 4 to 3/4 but by the time you joint and plane it end up at about 5/8. A number of pieces glued together to about 17 x 24 and the patterns is cut segmentation style and shaped. I then stained, dyed and painted. Some things like the straw are just burned. Because you are supposed to use as much wood as possible I also did the pumpkin (DIM) and the cat and dog (Janette Square design) as part of my entry. It came first in the scroll saw section FrankEV, RabidAlien, BadBob and 15 others 18 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The categories are scrollsaw, flat work, and wood turning. No one entered the wood turning. There was also a prize for best in show which went to a fellow who came up 6 different ideas. Each was a Home Depot gift card for unknown amount. danny and FrankEV 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
