Haven’t made anything in a while but just managed to get this one finished,H Botas pattern of one of the best actors in my opinion made using 1/4 in BB A4 plywood sheet with black mount board using a #2/0 spiral blade then made an oak frame for it thanks for looking

This is another free downloadable stencil I found and converted to a scroll saw pattern having only 31 holes. The pattern was sized to fit a 9” x 17” cut panel. The cut panel is 5/32” Solid Core Birch Ply (not BB Ply), cut using Pegas #2/0 Spiral Blades. The backer is 1/4” x 11” x 19” Solid Core Mahogany. The backer is hand painted under the cut area using Acrylic Artist Paints. The cut panel also has some areas hand painted with the contrasting light Pink Acrylic Paints. The panel was protected with multiple coats of Deft Clear Gloss Spray Lacquer. The stencil was in B&W but I was able to find many similar images of the Pink Panther that showed me the colors to use in this presentation. The Frame is 1 3/4” wide Poplar that was stained with Minwax Natural stain and then coated with two coats of Minwax Clear Gloss Wipe-On Poly. Decided to leave it Natural since the grain in this piece of Poplar was very nice, without the typical dark greenish coloration often found in Poplar. Was able to get this completed in only two days before having my knee surgery tomorrow (7/29). Comment and critique is always welcome and appreciated. I'm thinking this piece will be part of a wimsicle series, along with my previous "Cockerel", if I find some more to do.

Actually it's Cloe and Cooper. Many thanks to Russ Beard for the great patterns. These are my daughter's miniature Yorkies. 1/8" pre finished BB, #2/0 Pike blades.

I have heard that prices are on the way down, haven't seen it yet in my area, I hope they are.

Horch (1899-1939) August Horch was the manager of Karl Benz's factory between 1896 and 1899, when he decided to set up his own car manufacturing business. His first car was built in 1901 but things were tough and by 1909 Horch was squeezed out of his own company by its board of directors. He retaliated by setting up a new company called Audi, which would join the Auto Union alongside Horch in 1932. Horch would continue to produce cars under its own name until 1939, but after the war the company's Zwickau factory was in East Germany so it was turned over to truck production under the Soviets. As part of the Auto Union group, the dormant Horch brand is now owned by Volkswagen. The Horch was at the Concors D’Elegance at Pebble Beach and won best in show and was recently sold in auction for 6+ million. 1938 Horch 853 | conceptcarz.com In the original design, I did do the very narrow grill but because of the size (EX-16) I couldn't cut the individual pieces of the grill and started to wander. I could have done it with a larger SS.

I was really proud of this box until I realized that I had screwed up putting it together. Pretty well tore it up trying to get it apart. I was able to salvage the top and bottom and at least I noticed my screw up before I spent the time finishing it.

Love mine. Sure wouldn't give extra for the larger table. I see no need for it especially compared to my Hegner.

Been there, done that. Better luck next tine!

That is what makes the box special.

Beautiful box Dave!! Love the inlay!! You could have just sent it to me...LOL

Well I guess you just need the practice of makeing new side and end walls. If the second attempt is a nice as the first, it is a beautiful piece and great cutting. Those though mortisis are clean and neat. Great work.

You can always say you planned it that way! Regardless, great work. Love the inlay.

Just have that side facing the wall. It's how I fix that particular problem when I have it. Tom

Interesting - this (price difference) has happened to me twice in the past couple months, also at Lowes. They made it right, but now I'm looking closer at everything I buy there and elsewhere.

News article headline I saw said prices were down 68%.. I haven't needed any new lumber, so I'm not sure.

was it that the sides aren't facing all one direction? I probably wouldn't have noticed it if you hadn't said something.

They are Awesome!! But I was expecting those weed smokin crazy guys.

Welcome to SSV. It's always nice to see new members fun projects.

Welcome to the Village forum from Tennessee.

welcome to the village

Welcome to the Village from this side of the pond, it's a great place to be. Help is always at hand and freely given. I too do mainly animal related pieces.

This was my weekend project. This is for a friend of mine.

So I am going to try to get an Etsy store going, basically because I don't have the room to keep everything I make. I started taking some pics this evening, but I really don't like the pics. I need to come up with a better way to stage the items for Etsy.. but here are some things I cut prob back in 2011-2012, and they have been sitting in a 6qt sterilite tub since then.. The bigger wall pieces are Cherry and Ash. The box is cherry. The smaller Christmas ornaments are cherry and maple, and the feathers are red oak and ash glued together.. Ornaments and feathers are 1/8" and were stack cut so there are even more still in the box. The feathers are stack cut in two's so that when you cut across the part where the wood changes, they match up and can be glued together. I believe all of these are Sheila Landry designs... as usual for me. LOL

Hello All, I've been scrolling now for about three months. I find it to be very relaxing and quite pleasing to complete the various projects. I'm a retired law enforcement officer but continue to work for a farm manufacturing company that distributes worldwide. I live in a very rural area with my wife, dogs, cats and various wildlife that visit my property. We did have horses when we first moved here but they have passed on and we decided at our ages not to get any more. I say all this because you'll notice most of my projects are animal related. I look forward to learning from the experience of the members of this forum. God bless and keep scrolling!

Welcome to the forum. It's by far the best there is. And you'll find an answer to just about anything you can ask. I know we all look forward to seeing what kind of work you are doing and interested in. Please be sure to include pics as we all love pics.

Awesome work as usual, Frank. Good luck with the surgery. Hope you mend fast and get back on the saw soon.

60 days! Took me two weeks of calling to get through to be put on the list. I was put on the list 3 years ago and keep calling every 6 months to get put on the “list” again. I gave up for a year and got a bad taste in my mouth. Trying it one last time. There is a new office gal and she said I will definitely receive my saw this time. The G4 seems really high quality. I should have bought one when they first came out. I have some big stuff coming up to build and I need to get my feet planted and get it done.

Well I glad you were able to order your new saw, how long of a wait is it before they say it’s done, RJ

I haven't seen this article - I wonder where the prices are going down, because it sure is not in my area! My area tends to NOT be similar to the rest of the country

I found it at bear wood. That is nice.

where did you find info on the larger table? I have a 30” that needs a new table and if i can get more blade room in the front and sides I would love to do so.

Just make one.

Very nice Frank! Clean cutting for sure, but the coloration and presentation make it stand out! I have tried spiral blades but have not had any success with them. Best wishes for your knee surgery. Does the pink panther have any connection to knees? Thurman

Nice job

We have sawmills in the area, going full steam with construction grade spruce, quality lumber gets shipped out of the country, the rest goes to British Columbia and none to our local lumber yards here as our Rona and Pineland get their supply from British Columbia. I wonder what is with that!

DUUUUUUDE That is some sweet work man!

But it could be up for trade for a shiny new pegas with a stand and assortment of a few gross blades of your choice? Lol I can pick it up on my way to Maine. Thanks for the help Rolf. Appreciate it very much.

I answered your PM. I do have and love my G4, I did however change the upper clamp to the Delta quick clamp. that mod is no longer available. The saw has served me well since May 2005. pretty much paid for the rest of the tools in my shop. I have had only very minor maintenance issues in the 16 years of ownership. This is sacrilege for me to say, but if I were in the market for a new saw it would be a Pegas. The added feature of the table staying flat and the arms tilting has swayed me in that direction. Also the Pegas blade clamps are far superior to the other saws in this style of saw. I know that is not what you asked for nor do I want to start a saw battle as most of us really think our saws are the best. And no it is not for sale.

There are so many versions of the Corvette and you cut a truck load of BBPW cutting them all. Thought I would go for an early classic.

You're going to love it here!

Another North Carolinian. Glad to see several of us on the forum. Thanks for the welcome.

Actually the handle is from the first truck I purchased new. A Dodge Dakota with a 5.2 liter engine. I created it as a log in for a work computer and I had to use various keys. That's why the "o" is actually a zero. My trips west of the Carolina's has been limited to TN except a summer job in TX and a trip to CO in 1993 to compete in the World Police and Fire Olympics.
