    New Guy, Kinda like this one. I took this a few weeks ago to post on the other scroll saw forum.

    I like Altoids and have finally found a use for the empty tin. I cut some puzzles from slices of a ~2" mesquite limb. I sprayed primer then some gold paint on the tin.

    I have wanted to cut that pattern every time I've seen it. One of these days, perhaps I will. You did a stellar job cutting and framing. Probably heard a ding as you leveled up.

    After I had made a few puzzles and saw how the pieces are shaped, I taped a piece of clean paper along the edges so it went over the puzzle image. Then using a ruler I would mark out a grid with equal sized roes and columns. I use that grid now for puzzle cutting mostly. Sometimes I just free cut following the image.

    Yeah Rusty, that happens a lot here in Tucson. Not sure why.

    Marg, I'm hoping never to have to use it for that. But I will if I need to. WHACK!

    I made a new walking stick from a windfall limb of my mesquite tree. The red part on top is from my neighbor's eucalyptus tree. My wife can't take a photo without showing something in the background. Often my head is cut off enable to show her flowers or something. heheh

    I'm really sorry that I didn't make myself clear. It's my fault for sure. What I am looking for is a pattern of a cockatiel similar to the pattern of the macaw at this address http://www.scrollsawer.com/2009/09/14/hanging-macaw-puzzle/ Thanks for your stellar effort Chachi. You did a great job on that. Live long and prosper StephenD

    The lady receiving the puzzle is 18. So, howabout 10 pieces. She has a real bird and the mom wants to give her the puzzle.

    My niece's friend wants a cockatiel puzzle. I haven't found a pattern for one and wondered if anyone here could help. Thanks.

    I made and took some items to my sister. I told her ahead of our arrival, "If you don't need it give it to someone who does." That worked real well. She kept a few items and made some other folks happy.

    That is really nice. Where did you get the metal work on the top? It really looks good.

    I finished these today and put a coat of mineral oil on them. I'm new to scroll sawing. I downloaded the patterns from Steve Good's site. A GREAT place.

    My neighbor, Pete, let me play with his scroll saw and I found I NEEDED one too. I bought a Porter Cable last week and am having a good time making junk. I'm gathering patterns like mad and am so looking forward to cutting some of them. I'm not at all worried about the learning curve, heck, I'm retired and have time. Thanks for the good site and resources. Stephen in Tucson, AZ
