Great job on the piece. Both colors look good, If I had to choose, red for me.

Frank, Brilliant! The grain is beautiful and nice job cutting.

Fec, The miter joints are indeed sloppy and not what I hoped they would be and weren't intentional. You are very observant. They were done with a back saw and miter box. A wood worker I'm not. The only other form of wood working I do is rough carpentry that needs to be done. My main hobby I do other than fly fishing is hobby machining. Machining satisfies my OCD behavior and challenges me I guess. Maybe I should have made the frame on my milling machine, (actually crossed my mind while fitting it together). Thanks for the constructive comments and compliments Fec, and thank you for the welcome Kevin.

That would sure make a nice cutting, beautiful bird. The pigeons better watch out!

Thank you all for the nice comments. I'm sure if you experienced scrollers think it is OK then he will be thrilled with it. I did a couple of trout oil paintings for him about 16 years ago that he really cherishes. This scrolled piece ought to mix it up and throw him a little curve. I've never been to the Montana home yet, just saw some pictures of the exterior. I am assuming the interior has a rustic theme, so the picture should fit in well. Thanks again for all the compliments. All work can be improved upon, any suggestions appreciated.

This brown trout is my first attempt at scrolling. It is a gift for my friend for his summer cabin on the Madison river in Cameron, Montana. We are going fly fishing there on the first of next month. I will ship it out there and hopefully it will be waiting for us in one piece. A token of my appreciation for the hospitality. The wood is 1/8" BB plywood sealed with spray shellac, backer is black poster board on hardboard, frame is 1X2 white pine, stain is vinegar with steel wool and tea that I mixed up. Finished with 3 coats of spray poly satin. Everything I needed to know I learned from reading this forum. Thanks for all the Ideas. All comments and criticism welcome.

About 8 hours now and I think I already lost some hair!
