Angel fish (Steve good free download)

[Allen levine]

Practicing my unsteady hands

used a 2/0 fd blade for 1/4 inch and broke or bent 3 blades

i used a 9 blade for 1/2 inch pieces base and stem

all pieces again  came out of bins

i know the pattern uses the same species for stem since it's part of tail but I used what looks like white oak or ash and sapele scraps for fish

inhave a boatload of poplar from all the other projects so made the grass with that

took me approx 3 hours to cut and sand

Used some old stain and I routed a small curve around base

im still struggling with tight turns even with 2/0 blade

i ended up using a 3 blade to finish the 1/4 inch pieces much easier for me

I need to clean up some fuzzies on the green painted part

will wait for a complete cure then wipe them off

Hello Allen. Very low time hobbyist with too many LOL, This is just what I was looking for, but darned if I can fine it. Is it the pattern library?

Upon occasion, if Steve did this as a second pattern, it doesn't seem to get into the catalogue.  He has said in the past that he puts them up on Pintrest so you can see the thumbnail pictures there.

Barb, thank you very much for the information. I'll take a look. Much appreciated. I toy with automata, hence the scroll saw. I was bouncing ideas around when I stumbled across this. For the curious, take a look here for a good explanation. Many creators on YouTube, Instagram, and Facebook. There is a small community on groups.io

It happens, I respect artists also have to put food on the table and situations change. Thanks for the response. Please see my detailed response to Barb, I simply saw her response first, no slam intended.

Kelli,

     The pattern is not in his pattern library, but if you search his blog on his main page for - "angel fish" - it's there.

Use the quotes in the search, it limits the search.

Wichita, thank you. Much appreciate your time and help. If the link is bad etiquette or forbidden on the forum please let me know and I'll pull it or ask the mods to pull it. 

Thanks again,

Ron

Two patterns in the post. The angel fish is the second and not listed in the post title.
