I just finished cutting this on a Basswood blank. I have never tried a blank and thought this would be a good cut. I have done this pattern on numerous plagues for lineworkers. How have other finished basswood blanks? Thought was just to spray with clear but thought it needed a little tint to it.

Finished a commission project "Wedding Rings". The wood is 1/2" Hard Maple. Cut on the Pegas Scroll Saw using Pegas #3R MGT blades and #1R MGT blades for the lettering. Finished with two coats Lacquer Clear Satin. Comments welcome.

This is for my wife for Christmas. The portrait is from an Acadia Cutting Board. The frame is OLD OLD wormy oak with Walnut Splines. The acadia was 3/4 thick so I made a slightly larger underframe out of oak so it would match the thickness of the portrait and add a little dimension to the square frame.

Been one of those years. Best I can muster is this piece, going to a co-worker who I know will get a kick out of it.

I made 18 of the small Nativities and about the same number of larger ones. On the larger, about half were natural and the others were painted flat white. The small ones have a hook for hanging and given to relatives as my annual handmade ornament. Some of the larger ones were used as table decor at a church luncheon and then became door prizes along with some angels. All patterns by Steve Good. 1/8" and 1/4" plywood.

This is what I am giving my DIL this year. I painted the background. The wood is maple, I/8” BBPly backer

We do our best to talk customers out of coloring our products simply because what they envision and what the wood will take are often 2 different things. Water items, no problem since we do lots of them. Green pasture, no problem we do lots of them. However once in awhile we get an "unshakeable" customer and no matter what we say, they are adamant in their color scheme... This then is one of those customers. The "Matt Pan" shadow with Bronze hooks - all black except for the feather! It took 2 different stains to get the "purest" black we could... Thanks in advance for looking..

Several years ago, I decided I wanted to scroll a different Nativity each year. Well this is the one for this year.. the third I have completed... I'm a little behind. This is a Sheila Landry Pattern. Called "Filigree Nativity Set". It's a little different

I send my nieces & nephews an ornament every year. Got them in the mail yesterday.

Since we go to Florida in a few days, we had our Christmas gifts exchange last Saturday. I made this for my father-in-law.

Hello, I offer this last year to my coworker Elodie who is found of ... unicorn.

Made this Alex Fox pattern for my brother-in-law and a very good friend with a Harley

I have my saw via the foot pedal plugged into the auto start outlet on my Festool, so it starts when the saw starts. On the Hawk that did not work so I connected my foot pedal to an Outlet strip and plugged the saw and vac into it.

One of my favorite patterns, by Sue Mey. Rough cut live edge red oak, about 5" x 7".

Here is my contribution to the Charlie Brown Christmas trees. I had a fun cutting these out. Cut them from 1/4 inch poplar. My sincere thanks to Barb Enders for leading me to Scrollercafe and more importantly how to navigate the web site. As an Air Force navigator one would think I would have no problem, my wife used to say I could find anyplace in the world, but couldn't get around in the city. Jerry

Finally finished. I found working with the red oak to be extremely difficult for achieving the lacquered finish on top. The three on the right are red oak with walnut inlay. The other 3 are white oak with Jaboba wood inlay. The interiors each contain a Pentel .5mm and .7mm "Quicker Clicker Pencils", spare lead for each, spare erasers for each plus a Staedler eraser and an eraser template held by a magnet in the cover.

I have cut several item in basswood. I sprayed them with Deft lacquer after cutting.

Hello, Am I late ??? One of my first scroll sawing. A sign to hang on the wall of a kitchen ("cuisine" means "kitchen" in french).

I've used them twice. I am not exactly sure but I think I left them natural. The Santa may have a BLO finish.

Beautiful work

Beautiful

Nice work, indeed. That is spectacular! Bravo Zulu!!

Looks good to me. The best black "stain" I've found is India ink. Tom

Like'n that. Wish I had had that when my Father -in-law was alive and working. He was a lineman. Eventually worked on those great big high voltage lines way up in the sky... I've seen pictures where he was just a speck up the. Not for me..

I'm liking it as well. Like you said, the customer is always right.

Customer asked for a big tree of life pattern. Found this one as a black and white free image. Liked it so much she ordered four of them! 22 inches wide. 1/2 inch birch ply. #5 reverse tooth

Looks good Jes. Not quite sure about the feather. I might of left it all black but that's only opinion.

Great job! I see what you're saying but I also think it turned out looking nice. Just a silhouette of Peter with a splash of color. Looks cool to me. Also kind of symbolic, since Peter met Wendy while looking for his shadow.

WoW Barb, you been busy. Love all the puzzles. Great job on everything.

Looks good. Instead of stain, I would have used an acrylic paint.

Have had fun with these. All are Poplar cut with a combination of Pegasus #7 mg and #5 skip tooth. Dipped on 1 coat of clear Shellac and will get several coats of clear gloss Lacquer when dry. I think I will try one just a bit smaller than the smallest of these just for the fun of it. Both 2D and 3D.

My version of lighted Christmas scene

The true meaning of Christmas....I made the figurine set a few years ago(Steve Good Pattern), but never had a nativity barn to go with it, so I went to the scrap wood pile and came up with this, all made from scrap wood except roof made from 1/8" ply. Sorry I haven't been scroll sawing much.

Cut a few ugly Christmas sweaters and angels from the last magazine and decided to fill the holes with epoxy. Still on the drying rack

These are for my nieces and nephews. Filled with polymer clay, which gets baked. Finished with one coat of tung oil.

Just finished my first box frame light box for a customer who’s little girl is mad on frozen, Designed myself from images online and put together.Lights are mounted on a A4 MDF sheet then made pine box frame and put a frosted acetate sheet then cut out pattern on 1/4 inch Baltic birch plywood with 2/0 spiral blade and stained with danish oil ,finished off with a glitter lacquer (can’t really see glitter in picture but it’s there )Thanks for looking any tips for making these again would be appreciated as it’s my first I’m sure there is room for improvement

This is a Steve Good pattern of a leash rack. The screws are ready to mount the piece.

Simple boxes are always functional......................

This Nite Light has been my go to gift for new mothers for 3 generations now. Started making them when our peers were having babies, then those kids started having babies, and now the babies are having babies! The Nite Lite is designed with a fretwork panel that slides in front of the light and screens the light from the inside. A hidden chamber in the back can store additional panels.

I could put of a few but you all have seen them before.. Two clocks, a pin box for my wife to put pins in and a little try she uses to put "stuff" in in she sewing room.

Here are just 3 I could I easily find. Probably shared at some point. I have made many phone holders and given as gifts. Still have a bunch but this Mickey one is a one of a kind I made for myself and use at night when I am charging phone in kitchen. I have others I use in the workroom and workshop but he is my favorite. The butterfly box I believe is a Steve Good pattern. His pattern had something else on it and I changed and added the butterfly instead. I wanted the butterfly as my mom loved butterflies so I did it to honor her memory. It has a curved lid and layered with different wood to add color to the butterfly. Here is link to Steve’s pattern for the box. https://scrollsawworkshop.blogspot.com/2020/06/curved-lid-box.html The football is a trivet cut for use in my kitchen. I added the power T for my beloved TN Vols who I hope may some day return back to being a team of some relevance. Hope does spring eternal. At least we have had great baseball and basketball the past few years to get us over the agony of football season.

I work from home and have to use my phone for MFA authentications, many times a day (SysAdmin, I jump into a lot of different servers requiring MFA) I typically lay my phone down, and pick it up every time I have to allow myself access. So, I figured I should make myself some sort of phone holder to hold it upright so I can just tap the allow button. I had some left over white cedar from a bunch of bird feeders I was building, so looked online for some ideas. I saw one that someone made that I sort of liked. I printed the picture out and followed it as my pattern. Because it's cedar, and smells good, I just left it raw and unfinished. I sanded it a bit, but I didn't want to spend more than 15 or 20-minutes making it. This is what I came up with: Dan

Few things come up for this topic. Covid keys,2 tier trays great sweets tray although most people here use them for decorating for different seasons halloween,Christmases, upside down bird houses lol, flower pot holders, christmas card holder, double sudden pen holder I made for the pea I turn on occasion, and last but sure not less tablet stands in shape of cutting boards.

I use this stand for my Kindle tablet every day. Made it last year. Tom

I like functional projects.. I have posted these earlier this year. This first picture shows me using it. Everytime I leave the house I put one of these on.

I don't have a lot of pictures of stuff I've made. I managed to find these of a couple things I made several years ago. Not a lot of scrolling in this piece, just the ornamental symbols on the front and the lid. This is a faith chest. I make these for our church to present to the family when a baby is baptized.

I hesitate to post these pics because most of you have already seen them. But here goes. The nut basket, votive holder and center piece are all derived from patterns by John Nelson. The 3 candle holders are from a pattern by an unknown designer. I took the original and made 3 sizes out of it. The last one is a bowl from Sue Mey.

Steve Good just did a review of the new Scrollnado( not the old one from a few years ago) that just came out on his blog. I think it was around $50.00

If I may interject related question.. When you use your dust collection do you have it running full time when scrolling or do you have it turn on and off with your scroll saw? The reason I ask,, I had a nice Fein vac attached to my scroll saw dust collection... The vac only last three years, three months and the motor burned up. I think the short life was because I had it going on and off with my saw. Just curious. Mine was a set up similar to "Rolf's".
