Popular Post JohnRB Posted February 25, 2017 Popular Post Report Share Posted February 25, 2017 Hi I don't post very often, but just tend to look at other peoples work as I had a bad experience on a UK forum last time I posted some of my work. I really enjoyed doing this Jewellery Box, it was a fantastic pattern from FineScrollSaw.com.

JohnRB Posted February 25, 2017 Author Report Share Posted February 25, 2017 Thank you for all your nice comments, I really enjoyed making this as I like intricate fretwork. I am just finishing a Mini Gargoyle Grandmother Clock from a pattern by Dan Wilckens, that too is quite intricate. Russell - It is 15in wide x 12.3in high x 6.8in deep, I am not sure how many hours it took as I tend to do a bit leave it a few days, then do a bit more, probably about 20 hours with the finishing.

Scrappile Posted February 25, 2017 Report Share Posted February 25, 2017 Very beautiful and I certain hope you will join in here infrequently and show more of your work. I have completed cutting the "Five Dragon Box" from Fine scrollsaw but have a lot of sanding yet to do on it. I also have the plans for several of his other boxes. The gentleman that has the site is great to do business with. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JohnRB Posted February 25, 2017 Author Report Share Posted February 25, 2017 Paul - Look forward to seeing your Five Dragon Box, I was thinking of getting that pattern myself. I agree Pedro has lots of wonderful patterns, I would like to have a go at most of them, they are really good patterns. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scrappile Posted February 25, 2017 Report Share Posted February 25, 2017 (edited) The reason I have so much sanding to do is I use a 3/0 spiral blade to cut it. Spirals do not leave as clean of a cut as flat blades. So I need to sand all the fretwork to get rid of the little "teeth" marks. I cut it out over a year ago and I take the pieces with me when I go camping and sand...... sand.... I would just do it over but I used some very nice wood to make it and I cannot waste it. I will complete it some day if I live long enough! Here is what it looks like so far. It is not glued or anything I just put it together to fit it Edited February 26, 2017 by Scrappile jollyred, Lucky2 and Gordster 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JohnRB Posted February 25, 2017 Author Report Share Posted February 25, 2017 Paul - I love your Five Dragon Box, that took a lot of work to get it so good. I also find that the sanding and finishing takes a lot of work, it certainly did with the jewellery box. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
