Just finished this one,can't believe how many holes there were used a #3 and #5 spiral blade with a black mount board backer.

I ordered blades on Friday and Denny said he would put in Saturday’s mail, here it is Monday afternoon and I received the blades. I would say that is excellent service and everyone in need of pegas blades I would definitely order them from artcrafters for their fast and committed service, RJ

I purchased the 50th Anniversary Plaque from Sue Mey. A friend will have their 25th. He is my age, so I doubt they will reach 50. I modified the pattern to 25th rather than 50; did not do the relief, and added a backer. This was cut on a Pegas using #1 and #3 MGT blades. The top is 1/4" Baltic Birch plywood approximately 8" square. The bottom is 3/8" Baltic Birch plywood stained with Samen Raspberry stain. I used 3/8" because of the coin and saw tooth hanger. The finish is one dipping in diluted Shellac and 3 coats MinWax spray Lacquer Clear Satin. Comments welcome.

Been busy doing yardwork, but I was able to get these 3-D pieces done when I took breaks outdoors.

I have been pondering, designing, cutting and waiting on this project for several months. I started out just wanting a sign for my shop. Eventually I knew I wanted it outside and viewable from both sides. Then came the idea of needing a sign bracket, ya the order of design was a bit backward . After searching for days and getting no satisfaction I decided to design my own sign bracket. Long story short, 2 machinist later I finally found someone to build my bracket. I am moderately satisfied with the bracket outcome although to be honest I was hoping for better quality. I learned a great deal through the process and have refined the process for the sign and its assembly. Imam also looking for another source to build my sign brackets and pondering offering these signs on my website. Details: sign is a 8” diameter circle, triple layer of 1/4 inch stock. The two outsides are BB and are stack cut. The center is mdf. After assembly the sign is covered in Helmsman outdoor marine varnish, 3 coats. After fitting the sign into the bracket (both are hand made so neither are perfectly round) I coat the outer edge of the sign with silicone and slide it into the bracket and pin it in place. After wiping away excess silicone I let it dry, my hope is the silicone helps seal the edge from rain. Now I just need to find a place to mount the sign outside my shop. I hope you enjoy.

I seen the plans (16 pages worth) on Woodsmithplans.com. There is a lot of scrolling an sanding. Made from black walnut an white maple. The plans didn’t show the hand rails, front steps or the ballast in the track. I felt it was needed. I don’t have a way to do turning. So I just started sanding the main round engine using belt sander and anything else I could come up with. This is a gift to my youngest son so I wanted it to be totally made by me. It is hard to see in pictures but the sign on stand reads “New York Central Railroad Twentieth Century Limited Super Hudson Streamlined J3a Built 10 Between 1937-1938”. This has to be the most rewarding project that I have made in the 10+ years of woodworking! To see the emotion from my son when I showed it to him is what I will never forget. I have included a picture of the real engine and you notice I used the same engine number it had. Sorry for the long post but if you want anymore information just ask. Have probably over 40 hours in it. The stand is 30” long. Thanks for looking!

Mean looking! Just one hole at a time right.

WOW WOW WOW!!! That is fantastic!!! i love it!!! you did a great job on him!!

Hi there, I have been scrolling for about a year now, I find I am learning new things everyday. I get real enjoyment for creating gifts for members of my local Church, little plaques, 3d compound cuts ( I love those) never ceases to amaze me when pulling the outside layer away. I have been learning inkscape as well, for that more personalised gift, which I am thoroughly enjoying. As I have browsed through the group, there seems to be some truly gifted individuals on here, looking forward to learning something new from you all and pushing the boundaries of my creativity. I hope you all have a wonderful day.

Great job. IKE

fantastic job, it's beautiful

Hi LarryEA yes it is 1/4inch Baltic birch plywood it actually cut very well only minimal "fuzzy's"on the back, I bought some flat end spiral blades from mikes workshop they are very good !

Great job, well done. So many holes there just like the project I am doing at the moment.

You did great... Is that birch plywood?

Great job.I must admit, I get a little impatient when I have so many cut outs.

So beautiful. Fabulous job. Marg

Very nicely done

Beautiful job! Whose pattern is it?

You did a beautiful job!

Now that would be an awkward phone call!

The best place for quality hardwood skins is a casket maker. They only use the best and throw out the rest.i heard that you have to take a truck load at a time too.!!!

you did a great job!!! she looks fantastic!!

Spring is when the elk leave our property and head for the back woods, so I made two boxes with elk images. The boxes were made by stack cutting walnut and poplar, then mixing the cut pieces up a bit. The elk images were cut on an angle so they would fit into each other without a gap due to the thickness of the blade -- a new technique for me!.

I had this 50th Anniversary pattern by Sue Mey, but I needed a 25th Anniversary. I enlarged some numbers I had for the Wedding Rings and they fit perfectly. Cut on the Pegs Scroll Saw using Pegas #1 MGT blades. I should have this finished tomorrow and in the mail Friday.

Very interesting. If only I had a laser printer. I thought I was listening to Bob Ross. Tom
