Here is a Cardinal - I know it is a popular Intarsia subject - I made from a 39-piece pattern I adapted from an image of a SG piece. The Cardinal and Flowers is approximately 8 ½” x 8 ½”, surface mounted on a 9 ½” diameter solid wood plaque style backer. Wood used: Aspen, Bloodwood, Poplar, Wenge, Mahogany, Yellowheart, and Sycamore for the plaque backer. The eye is a dot of white paint. The assembly is protected by multiple coats of rattle can spray Clear Gloss Acrylic Finish. The following JFYI. I happen to be fortunate to find a couple of Poplar nom 1"x8"x8' boards at my local Lowes that had a lot of, the hard to find, dark green color heartwood. I purchased them and added them to my wood stock, so I did not need to enhance the leaf color with dye or paint. I attempted to add some sculpturing effect to the flowers and it resulted in some visable color variations after applying the finish that I had not planned on, but my Lady says looks good. She says they look like real Dogwood Flowers. The Bloodwood, like Padauk, makes very fine dust that sticks to and stains other wood, however, it is not quite as deep dark as Padauk and it has slightly more color variations that was needed for this piece. The photo makes the red look darker then is is in real life. Comments and critiques are always welcome. This will be my last new project post for about 8 weeks. Please check out my post in Coffee House. EDIT: Pattern posted in Pattern Exchange

Hey Everyone! In this fun scroll saw project video, we make a beautiful Rustic Blue Heron Portrait! I cut the portrait from 1/2 inch basic plywood and the backer board is 1/4 inch plywood. The design is from the Spring 2025 Issue of Scroll Saw Woodworking & Crafts Magazine by Fox Chapel Publishing. This design lends itself to several different uses and would make a great gift for the bird lover in your life! Hope you all like the video! #ArtisanPirate

I just put up a bird feeder outside my office window and I'm patiently waiting for my bird friends to discover it. So until they do, this month's scroll saw challenge is bird themed! Post your scroll saw project that is related to our feathered friends. Bird portrait, eagles, puzzles, clocks, bird houses, bird feeders or whatever! I can't wait to see them. When you post, tell us a little something about it. Or maybe share which birds are coming to visit your house. Have fun!
