Popular Post scrollerpete Posted March 1, 2018 Popular Post Report Share Posted March 1, 2018 (edited) I have a very good friend that likes to decorate her house for all the different occasions, so I made a napkins holder for Easter that she can use when the family comes over for dinner. Still have to apply the finish to it and also I will use the router to round off the edge of the base.

kdparker Posted March 2, 2018 Report Share Posted March 2, 2018 I have recently finished two of these Easter Crosses for gifts. The pattern is from Steve Good's site. I added a larger base than was on his original pattern. I used red oak and Pegas 2/0 spiral blades.

worbler Posted March 6, 2018 Report Share Posted March 6, 2018 Here's one for you. It'd be the perfect day to choc coat a raw egg, or boiled, and wrap it as the real deal. You don't get this chance very often. You know you want to do it now that you've read this. It's stuck in your mind and you can see the funny side to it. Go on, be daring, do it.

Popular Post GPscroller Posted March 14, 2018 Popular Post Report Share Posted March 14, 2018 Dad just moved into an assisted living complex here in Grande Prairie, so I made this for him. Thanks to Kevin for telling me where to find the pattern (here in the SSV library). I modified it by just doing the lettering. Dad loved it more this way than with the fancy stuff on the sides.

Scrappile Posted March 14, 2018 Report Share Posted March 14, 2018 Nice cutting.... I think letters are the biggest challenge. GPscroller 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree, one little slip or lapse of concentration and a person is hooped. Have two more big lettering projects on the to do list and am not looking forward to them, BUT they will be so nice when done. Meant to post this in the Easter challenge, do not know how it got here. Have PM'd Travis to move it for me. Thanks Paul. Jeff new2woodwrk 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JTTHECLOCKMAN Posted March 14, 2018 Report Share Posted March 14, 2018 Very well done. That is a prayer no matter how it is cut out has and always will have that power of calmness and spiritual uplifting. I am sure it will be cherished forever. Thanks for showing.

Blaughn Posted March 14, 2018 Report Share Posted March 14, 2018 That is nice work!!! How big is the piece? I have done several similar pieces and have found that Cherry and Walnut are too unforgiving on thin-bridge potential dropouts. I now use 3/8" solid Jatoba (aka Brazilian Cherry). It is extremely hard, and the interlocking grain is far more forgiving when scrolling small letters. I have also found these projects are very stressful. By the time you reach the last few words, the cost-of-failure is very high and an errant drop-out is never replaceable.
