When your regular cold medicine doesn't work......another unique Christmas gift just completed in time that somebody will get soon.....they couldn't find this in any stores......white oak.....clear Deft (5 coats)

I cut these on Friday and finished them over the weekend. The bunny is for my granddaughter and and the ferret is for my daughter. The wood is 3/4 in Coach Wood. Marg

Special Thanks to Grampa for the pattern. I made this for a guy I meet a couple months ago. His Dad raced this car back in 77.

Some of this weekend's cutting. Glued the photos onto 1/4"BB ply with spray glue. Let that sit for a couple of days. Stack cut, put the photos on the inside, glued the template to the back side. After cutting, took the pieces apart. That was actually harder than it should have been, the two layers stuck together. Next time I will put some wax paper between the photos. Cut with #2R olson blade. Haven't finished the wood. Might put a coating of Mod Podge on the top to seal the edges. These were for practice on cutting puzzles for future ideas.

1/8th wood, Steve Good pattern,And of course some names ,lol

Hi people, have not done a lot of cutting lately, been playing with my new Toy (Laser/Engraver). So here is a cutting I did for the manager of our local Salvation Army Family Store. She loves Eagles so thought it was a great pattern, not sure where it came from so any one knows Thanks. The other pic is of the Laser engraved name and date and such could never do it by hand this nice...... Cheers Merlin..................

Made this for a disabled lady who this year lost her husband and then recently her little dog too felt she needed a pick you up.

A couple of three years back my daughter was promoted to Dean at a college she worked at in Kansas. So I ordered a desk name plate from a retired cop in Louisiana off of Etsy. We got to talking about scroll sawing, and two years ago for Christmas Santa brought me a Porter-Cable. little while later and I found an EX-21 on Craigs list and I've been puttering ever since.. In October, she was promoted to Campus President of the campus in Las Cruses, and in December she earned her PH. D. So I made my first name plate, for her desk, Will be a Christmas gift. Cut with a PMG 5, and I sliced a piece of firewood on the table saw for a base. The torch on both ends is the college logo. And a big thanks to Kevin, your name plates help me envision how to do it with the descender on the letter 'y'.

I've been working on this for a few weeks. I found the Pattern on Pinterest. The original was a little small so I took it to the UPS store to enlarge. Only problem was the pattern got rasterized. I rather follow a line than an edge and I had to guess the line with the rasterized edge. I did not stack cut because I tend to push too hard and distort the bottom pattern. The pattern is 1/8" BBPW. I cut the oak posts to 3/4" and dato'ed a 1/4" grove on 2 sides with the table saw to accept the pattern and the 1/8" amber Plexiglas. Initially left the protective backing on one side of the Plexiglas but it was too dark. I used parchment paper and glued edges with contact cement to the Plexiglas. I used 1/4" dowels to mount the posts on top and bottom and glued the bottom in place after mounting panels. Top is removable. I had to put a slight taper on the edges of the wooden panels since the grooves were a tight fit. I used a 40 W LED bulb and made sure it was one of the ones that shone both up and down. Some have a high collar that only shine sideways and up. Finish was 2 coats of shellac and 2 coats of lacquer. Used a roller on/off switch. There were many steps to make this project but it has a perfect spot in our hall foyer. In the next few months I'll be holding off on projects. I am having a 24 x 30 detached garage built in the back yard. It will have a small 1/2 bath, HAVC and a 14 x 30 loft. Stubbing water waste and HAVC for future expansion upstairs. Wife wants me out of the garage. Too much dust. The plan I've included will only have one garage door and the lav. on the opposite side. Entrance door will move to front. Still getting price for 2 dormers. Hope to have it done by May but it will depend on HOA AC approval.

Hi All, Just finished staining wiseman #2. My problem now is do I varnish each individual piece or glue the pieces up for the front and the back and then varnish ??

I used FDUR exclusively then tried the PMG blade also in sizes 3 and 5. I agree with Dave and Gonzo, PMG works the best and seems to cut straighter too. I found that if I slowed the feed rate of the wood into the blade, wood chatter all but disappeared. And I put some MDF as a new table top on the excaliber to get rid of those vacuum holes, only one hole where the blade goes now Jim

This is a sleigh I cut and assembled some time ago. but alas, another one I didn't finish. So I put a finish on it recently. The reason it wasn't finished was, my wife wanted it to be horse drawn. I wanted reindeer. I never found a pattern for either, well I didn't look very hard either. This is a Sheila Landry pattern: http://www.sheilalandrydesigns.com/product/SLD478

These are very easy and fun to make. I used 1/8" BB ply stack cut 4 at a time. They slide together and can be stored flat. I used General Finishes green dye and no clear over it. One thing about water based dyes is to clean around the rim very thoroughly before storing. I had a dickens of a time getting the lid off because of the rust. I have transfered the remaining finish to a Mason jar.

I use a Pegus #5 MG on almost everything 1/2" and above. I usually stack cut thinner material so I stay with the #5.

These are the Scroll Saw gifts I made this year. The trivet is for a granddaughter just married and trying to cook. Steve Good pattern. The dolphin for a different granddaughter. She loves the beach! The penguins is for my daughter the biggest penguin lover ever! The frame is for a granddaughter that has given birth to my first great grandson! The dog is a gift for a friend that recently lost his Sweetpea

Great cutting of the Kray's Frank but not sure I'd want them on my wall! Rob

Thank you from Englan Bobscroll !!!!!!!!!!!!

Not my work sorry i goofed loading pictures.

Can not remember the last time I snapped a blade on either one of my Hawks. Each and every saw takes some getting use to no matter what saw it is.

Nice work Rob thanks for sharing

Nice work thanks for sharing

It looks real nice with them different pieces of wood you used, Thank you for showing us, Bob

Thanks & no Paul I have records (vinyls) just been nailed down doing items people have asked for as xmas gifts and ones I wanted to help people out with etc but my vinyl brain is a ticking and ready to go once I finish up the last of the xmas ones . I need to cut some vinyl soon the wood dust has taken over the vinyl chippings on the floor

Another great job well done. That looks pretty difficult to do.

I will be starting a new job in a couple weeks that is 12 hr rotating shifts......it may cut into my shop time, but with this schedule I will only work 6 mo. out of 12........time will tell.

It's beautiful. Did you use different thickness as well? The main part looks higher than the rest.

I agree with dave on this wondergully made project,Keep them coming!

Awesome job, thanks for the pic. Jeff

Vool looking piece thanks for sharing

Tim, it's gorgeous, I can only imagine how many hours you have into it. Len

Last year I made angel ornaments for my students. Do you recognize what they get in 2017?

Advent decoration for my daughter.

I glue them together and then create a socket holder. I also line the cutting with graphix transparancy sheet or light gel filter cut to size. Attached are two images (one with light gel and other with raphix transparancy paper.

I would just cut corner plates and glue to all four corners top and bottom and one in the middle of each panel cramp up go get a coffee n chillax until set but that`s just me I like simple and I like coffee You have plenty of meat on the sides away from your patterns you have cut to use any methods mentioned good luck post a pic up when finished it will be interesting to see it finished and lit up Good Luck

Nice lamps!
