Hello every body When she saw a flower of life on my desk a friend said: I love it! can you make one for me? I thought a tree of life, a classic. I show you my latest job and wainting for your advice. It was a very good exercise for practice. It is diameter 7.08 inches

Christmas gifts for family members.

Finished this plaque up for a friend, thanks Dan for the pattern was easy to cut!

Got to Panama City Beach Florida a week ago tomorrow, will be here until end of March. Here is my new workshop, nice to be able to saw outside, today’s temperature is 78. I always bring my scroll saw with me, not much of a beach goers. Played golf and scroll saw that is a perfect winter for me.

A couple things. Snowman plan from steve good. 3/4" poplar and 1/4" poplar arms hat scarf. Trees large one rough sawn hemlock, small one is pine

This is my 1st time posting any of my work. These are the gifts I made for my children and grandchildren this year. Al so the 1st clocks I ever made, all Steve Goods pattern. Jim Holler, Fairfield PA

Hello everyone We are not far from Christmas, 14 days. I made a subject in the air. Paix sur Terre aux hommes de bonne volonté.

I like the heart gear.. I may have to go find that myself. Thanks for saying where you got the pattern.

I like em all, but I have an affinity for the dragons - where did you get that pattern if I may ask?

This is a piece I just finished. It was ordered as a gift. A lot of fun to cut. Not quite 16 x 20 Over 300 cuts. .

Just a quick cut yesterday and finish this morning. Stack cut 1/4 thick hardwood ply from KJP Hardwoods. Backer is some masonite. Finish is tung oil. Pattern from Steve Good. Nice to do something "just because"

Fun puzzle I made for my grandson for Christmas.

very nice job

It was a very quick cut, just what I was looking for.

I thought it was a chess piece until I watched the video. I'm sure she will love it. You did a great job and the wood is beautiful!

That is so cute, she will love it. Marg

I can see where that would be confusing. I did the video because it's hard to capture the illusion of this type of a cutting with just photos. I started to give up after 3 tries, but it bothers me more than it should to fail/mess up. I'm glad I tried one more time, but I'd also like to learn to deal with blunders without it affecting my mood.

Hilarious... you do know me pretty well. LOL I won't be surprised if I go back to rattle can... it is very simple.

Beautifully done that last time!!!! Little confused by your post title. " Granddauter's and Flower". Not sure what I'm looking at so I think I must be missing something. Edit: Woops, did not realize it was a video.

Cut and and finished these name puzzles this morning. will be Christmas gifts.....1/2" sanded ply, 1/4" sanded ply for backer.....routed edges with round-over bit to take off sharp edges

Super sweet Barb. I have looked at many patterns of Ying and Yang cats. Seeing yours "in the Flesh" may just be the incentive I need to cut some.

I give my nieces and nephews an ornament every year. This year was Steve Goods initial snowflake. Did the personalized ornaments for the grandkids and great-nephews and an order from my daughter for her nephews.

Little break in the big project.

That looks fabulous Dan, terrific work. Marg

Wow.. how big are these? I can't believe the detail in them.

Looks great Dan. I’m sure it will be loved by both. Really like the enhancement with the crackle paint.

Here's a few things I have made for this Christmas. The first one is my grandson. The others are special requests by friends.

Present for my wife, not yet completed. 12 X 12", papercut pattern cut with a scrollsaw on a 2 stack 1/8" BB. Deciding on the color for the backer and frame.

Cut this Steve Good heart/gear pattern for my wife and daughter, decided to give them early (lots of family stuff going on). Haven't really cut much for Christmas this year, in past years I've had a garage full of gifts I scrolled. Owl/Wonderwoman/Superman trivets, multi-layer dragon scene, and Superman/Wonderwoman pics.

I cut these 7 Santas to give away as Xmas presents to friends and family. They were given on Thanks Giving so they could be hung for the month of December. I also cut 30 of the S. Good 2021 Ornaments. Pic only shows the first 20. Some have been given already and some will be given with our annual cookie exchange amoungs the neighbors on Christmass Eve Eve. I also cut this S Good "Santahouse" for a present to ourselves to hang on the front of our home.

My grandson, Kyler, is always trying to get into our bank. He even pulled a shelf down on himself trying to get to it. He is okay. Well, I decided to make him one for his upcoming birthday (OK, not Christmas but close enough). I also put a little money in it. Now, do I give him the combo or let him try all 1000 combinations? Hmmm.

It's been a while since I've posted anything. Needed some more ornaments for the tree this year plus I thought I'd give some as presents instead of shopping. Made one for the ornament exchange at work and a couple to just give away to friends. Shot them with some white paint and then glitter paint.

Thanks everyone! I made the mistake of taking some to work and showed them off. Looks like I'll be doing some more. haha! I'd much rather sit in the basement with the headphones on and be warm than be in the garage working on other things and freeze my toes off.

I'll throw another variable into the equation. Different boards, of the same thickness and species of wood, will cut differently. Not something we usually consider, but it does happen. I was cutting some 1/2" red oak yesterday. I was having some difficulty, the blade seemed dull and tended to wander, even though it was a fresh blade. I double checked tension. Same result. I tried the same blade on a different piece of 1/2" red oak. It cut much better. I've cut cherry before that would burn as soon as the blade touched the wood. Different piece of cherry, same thickness, no burning.

I wish I had my winter shop set up I have been sick for the past 8 weeks not much fun here cancer is not much fun. ike
