Four more Miniature Birdhouse Ornaments

[Denny Knappen]

Four more Miniature Birdhouse Ornaments designed by the late Diana Thompson. I used Walnut for the birdhouses and Spectraply for the little birds. Cut on the Pegas Scroll Saw using Pegas #3 Super Skip blades for the little birder and Pegas #6 Super Skip blades for the birdhouses. After a light sanding with a Mac Mop, dipped in diluted Shellac, another light sanding, and a final dip. Comments welcome.

Thanks Jerry.  I really like the Walnut, but more expensive than Ash.

Looking good Denny! Isn’t the ash kind of tough to cut?

Thanks Matt.  With the Pegas #6 Super Skip blade, not at all.

Denny, "The Bird Man of Tennessee"!  I really like the multi-colored birds.  I was just pondering the other night while wishing I could go back to sleep.  What would a chess set look like if you use spectra ply for the pieces?  Be kinda wild, I think.

My first thought after reading your post, “Hmmmm, Timothy Leary?”  Not kinda wild, very wild.
