Great scrolling. Really enjoyed looking at all of them.
-
I do it as Don does and it works for me. I placed an order last Sunday, received yesterday. Great service. Now don't do as I did, forgot I wanted more drill bits also. Now I need to place another order!
-
You certainly did a beautiful job on that beautiful pattern.
-
Very nice job. I do not make mistakes when scrolling, I make "pattern modifications".
-
I love those. Very nice work.
-
Nicely done.
-
Very well done picture of one of the most beautiful animals on planet Earth.
-
WOW, never have seen a Corian one before. That is very pretty and unique.
-
Really neat. Great job.
-
Now that is some delicate cutting. Very well done!
-
Very, very well done. Like you, I have, somewhere on my computer, the instructions on how to do these, but have never gotten around to giving it a try. My wife reminds me every once in a while, because she really wants me to make one. Hope to try it this year.
-
Those are great. Very nice.
-
Good idea. My wife loads, I empty. I never empty until she starts nagging me. This would eliminate the nagging... nahh, it would just be something else...
-
Very nice.
-
Beautiful, Dick. Great job.
-
Great job. Those little guys are really cute. Those bananas are too ripe for me
-
I agree with Rusty.
-
Very nice cutting. I waffle on the frame, not bad, but distracts from the cutting... I wonder how it would like with some kind of solid background in the frame. A darker color than the frame which may make the leaf stand out more... I don't know really, I am not good at that sort of thing.

Looked this post up because I was thinking I read someone was searching for the pattern. After rereading I don't see that, but if someone is it is available here: http://www.scrolleronline.com/product/8478/363 I ordered one. Don't know when I will try it, but I have a weakness for scroll saw patterns, like my wife has a weakness for quilting patterns and material!

Belt or Direct Drive - Which do you prefer and why ?
Scrappile replied to FranMike Harley's topic in General Scroll Sawing
I would have to believe most machines today are direct drive. It is nice to be able to turn a knob to adjust the speed, plus the fact that in most cases you have infinite speeds where with a belt you have only as many speeds as you have belt/pulley changes. This discussion comes up often in the lathe turning world of wood working. Both work, but if you have the option, I would choose direct drive, in fact, I did. -
Very well done! I just placed an order for a gross of 3/0 new spirals and a gross of 2/0 new spirals. I am trying to use the 2/0's for the larger cutouts (although I do not like them as well as the 3/0) just to save on blades. I break a lot of 3/0 blades. The down side of spirals is I cannot cut a sharp point. So sometimes I cut the spot out with a spiral and then go back with a flat blade where a sharp point is required. I did it quite a bit when I scrolled the "Viking Worrier". Charles Dearing, as I have read, uses a No. 5 spiral. He can get by with it because of the size of his projects. It would be too large of a blade for the size portrait I normally cut, I think. He also has a video where he shows it is possible to make a sharp point using a spiral. I have tried it many times but have only succeeded once. I will keep trying, maybe someday I get it down.

Nice stuff. Great use of the scraps. I really hate burning scraps of good wood. You could easily tell that if you saw my shop. I have lots of little scraps. Keep thinking they will come in handy if I ever get brave enough to do some intarsia.
-
Very happy you joined the Village. Lot of fun here. Nice looking projects you have done. Keep them coming.
-
Looking very good, Dick. Looks like you used a piece of solid wood. I prefer it to plywood.
-
Very beautiful!
