  1. This is one I started in early October, then got side tracked doing the Tawny Eagle one. I just went back and finished it. I have always loved the scrolling done in slabs of wood, that included the bark and all. I have never found a supplier for the slabs that I could afford. At a carving show I went to this summer I did pick up this piece of basswood for $2.00 that was somewhat like what I wanted. This is a Mike Williams pattern. Reduced in size around 50%, but one of my favorite patterns.
  2. BEAUTIFUL! I never had the opportunity to get any of his patterns. I wish he wouldn't have gotten into difficulties and was still doing patterns.
  3. Oh ya. They just don't make them like they use to!!
  4. On drugs and still puts out more work in a day than I can in a year!! Nice cuttings.
  5. Very nice looking.
  6. Sure expresses the Christmas cheer. Nicely done.
  7. Page 47 and thank you
  8. I have also wonder if black walnut can be bleached. I like the darkness as it is unfinished, but I know if I put BLO/MS on it it will turn twice as dark. I know because I saw how dark it was when I wiped it with MS just to clean the sawdust off.
  9. Thank you,,,,, I think If someone has the patience to cut several less detained patterns, why not one larger detailed pattern. It is all one hole at a time. Thank you all for the nice comments.
  10. Dick, sorry I had to miss the opportunity yesterday. It would have been fun. Let's make it happen after the Holidays. I'd still like to see Heppner and your workshop also.
  11. I did not know that, Spirithorse. Must say thank you Mr. Buzzelli for allowing the magazine to publish your great pattern. I notice he is even from the same state as I am.
  12. MikeWix posted his Eagle back on Oct 21 and when I saw it I knew I had to do it. I had a nice piece of black walnut, which I used, and maybe that was a mistake. It would be way too dark if I put a finish on it. So I will not. I will probably always wish I had used a lighter wood. Anyway this is my attempt. The pattern is from the "Scrollsaw Wppdworking & Crafts" magazine issue 60.
  13. That looks like Spring. It is snowing outside. Thanks for a glimpse of Spring. Very well done.
  14. That really came out nice, Todd.
  15. Thanks for joining us in the Village. Vey glad to have you.
  16. Daniel, welcome to the village. Take your pick from all the free patterns here and get scrolling. Anything we can do to help, let us know.
  17. He is a handsome little guy.
  18. Really nice display case. I need to make one. My son retired from the Navy in Oct. He sent me a flag to store for him. He was given the flag that flew on the base on 9/11/2001. I hope I can make something as nice as that.
  19. Welcome to the Village.
  20. Welcome to the Village. Sounds like you have a good plan. I look forward to seeing some results.
  21. Welcome to the forum! I use to have a DeWalt. I bought it as a "refurbished" one for around $330. I had no problems with it. You can also pick up a good buy on Craigslist sometimes. Just be sure to look it over good and try it before purchase, if you go that route. If buying new, I have read good things about the Delta, it is a twin to the DeWalt, but a little cheaper.
  22. Welcome to the forum. Glad to have you join us. My son moved to Germantown, Tenn, a couple months ago, and he is loving it there. Says there are some of the nicest people he has come across.
  23. That is FINE! Great job.
  24. Beautifully done, Jim. I love the old mill ones. I have one in my stack of patterns but have not had the nerve to try it yet. Looks very fragile.

    Hello

    Welcome to the forum. select the pattern you want left click on it when if displays, right click on it click on the size you want to save when it displays again in the size you selected right click on it select "save image as" and send it to where you want it saved. That is how I do it, may be other ways.
