I remember seeing that type of a saw when I would be in my Grandad’s wood shop. With all the talk about CNC & laser cutting my Grandad would have said these electric Scrollsaw machines aren’t wood working. Good to be reminded that things change. Myself I wouldn’t want to tackle a project like you did with a hand saw. But respect you for doing it the way you want to.
https://www.ebay.com/itm/351972469846 I hope this link works. I have brought from this ebay store several times and always gotten good wood an service. Free shipping on 40 pieces of 12x12 BB plywood 1/8" for $50.
I would say you have it figured out very well! The second one is about the least amount of detail and still have a great likeness of the person. I like the patterns that have great details and also the simple to the point patterns. Glad there are people who can do pattern making.
Steve Good is going to be doing a review of a $230 laser that looks a lot like yours Scott. Be interesting to see what he thinks about it. Shoot I need a new toy to add to the shop lol.
I have a jet filtering system an a shop vac hooked up to a dust deputy for the Scrollsaw, bandsaw an sanders. Also a dust collector for planer, table saw, drum sander.
A big AMEN to that. I was just thinking about how creative people are. Take a pattern and change it to make it there own or even to draw a new pattern.
I have a EX21 but I would think be the same with your saw. When I cut 1/4” wood I will turn the speed down to about half way. Lets me control the cut better. Everything else I run wide open.
Godfather of Scroll is a good title for him. Just think if he would have gotten a $1 for each pattern of his that has been downloaded! I met him at a show and he is what you call “good people “.
