    Made this for my Son-in-law who is a big fan of sports and this team. I figure he can hang it in his Game room... It is segmented in 1/2" mahogany.

    Holy cow, dick you are pumping out some really nice ones, quickly! Your backer is perfect for that cutting...

    Nice pieces.

    This is a fine example of why I give up on Inkscape (and Gimp). So many steps/ways to do such simple things. And inkscape for windows is not the same as inkscape for Mac.

    When I started, when I gave someone something as a gift, I request a picture of them with the piece. I thought if was simple request, especially in this day of modern technology. But I would say less than 5% followed through. I wanted a folder of memories. but not to be. No big deal but a disappointment. So like you, I can't remember them all. Won't stop me.

    Beautiful! With or without the words it is a very well done piece.

    Magnificent! That is a beautiful, well thought out piece of art! Thank you for posting it.

    Nice work. My preference in this case is the black, only because I have never seen a green or blue wolf before. Be interest to see which one sell the quickest, if you sell your art. Thank goodness we do not all see things the same,,, how boring would that be!?

    Both are great pictures, the color one wins it for me, because it gives a little more interest to me. The adding color seems to becoming more popular recently. That worries me. I am not good at it.

    The most important thing is how well you did. You did a very nice project on this cutting... I look at the smaller objects and I do not know how you could improve on them, The seagulls are really cut perfectly. Nice work, be proud of it. Now go get something more difficult. If you want to improve on your time, that is okay, but it does not make a much difference.

    That is called being a master at scrolling... Straight lines an circles are the hardest to do.. You so it so well!

    Every saw I have owned, DeWalt, Excalibur, Seyco, and Hegner have had sweet spots and not so sweet spots. All my saws but the Hegner lived on home made stands. My Hegner is on a mat. Maybe I'll try the shelf/weight first, thanks. I did have a cement bag in the bottom of the stands for my other saws. Sand may be better than cement. Speeking of homes, I borrowed $50K to build my home in 1980. That included the septic tank install and well drilled/pump install. The land was separate, 5 acers for 19K. I complain about my property taxes, but got an eye opener when we started looking a homes in town. Property taxes in city limits are like paying a morgage. I do not know how people do it. But still they will vote to pass every bond issue on the ballet and then complain about the taxes.

    I have a Hegner stand, but mine must be s different model than yours, I Mine has two legs in the front one in the rear.

    I have been contemplating bolting my scroll saw stand to the floor. I have the bolts, but have hesitated doing it because of the thought we need to move some day in the near future. I did not want to drill holes in the concrete floor, but on the other hand. Why not? If someone else buys the place, three hole will not make a difference. If they use the space for something other than a work shop they will want to cover the floor anyway. The other hesitation is well it make a difference. My saw (Hegner) has a few spots with vibration and some sweet spots with none. Not sure bolting it down will change that. Has anyone seen a noticable difference between bolted to the floor or no?

    Well done!

    True story, year ago my wife and I were flying to go visit our son somewhere. During the flight the flight attendant can around with beverages. My wife ask for a can of juice. The flight attendant handed her one, which the attendant opened the tab with a little opener she wore on her finger like a ring. My wife an avid Pepsi drinker asked her where she got it. The attendant replied she really didn't remember but said she would send the info if my wife gave her a mail address. Must not have had email back then. My wife gave her the address. We were both thinking nothing would have come of it...but a couple months latter she got an envelope in the mail,,, Inside was the info of where to get them along with one of the openers as a gift. I thought that was pretty cool.

    Super nice cutting!
  22. Scrappile
    Very well done. Hope you repost it after you get it framed. Beautiful. What did you use for coloring. Stain? Paint?
  23. Scrappile
    Great work! Love them all.

    @rdatelle Denny has them, I got this pack I have from a place called Grobet USA, long before Denny started his scroll saw business.

    I would agree with Ray, but this is glued pieces,, I think it works, subtle, sometime I like subtle.
