Does anyone know of a way to make a fence for a scroll saw, to allow cutting of straight cuts, perfect right angles, and measured angles?
-
Thanks, Larry
-
I was hoping that there was a way to make one using my Dremel. Some great posts. Thanks to all for the help.
-
I need your recommendations for making straight cuts on a small scale (from 1/2 to 12 inches). Is there such a thing as a miniature table saw?
-
Thanks everyone. I will try the resources you mentioned.

I need some expert help. I am trying to cut come very finely detailed portraits using two stacked sheets of 1/8" ply. The tiny drill bit that I use will only penetrate one layer of the wood. I have not been able to find any drill bits and the reduced-size chuck to hold them. Do any of you know how to solve this? Where to get the needed tools?

I finished cutting the Jerry Rice portrait today. This might be my favorite so far. I'm really pleased with the intensity of his facial expression. Just the way he played.

I recommend doing a "virtual" trial using a digital photo and a photo manipulation program. You can add some torching effect to the photo and see how it looks before you make the commitment on your project. I do this sometimes when I'm not sure about cutting out an area on my projects.

Thanks, everyone. Your comments mean a lot to me. I'll post the photo here when I finish it.

Got this one nearly done. The greatest NFL receiver of all time. What a thrill it was to watch him. I made the pattern using GIMP2 and a photo I got from the internet.

Fretwork and other works that make me proud.

Your work is beautiful. I think it is wonderful that you learned from your grandfather. I would love to pass along some skills to my own grandson someday. -
Great idea!
-
What a great team.
-
Incredible!
-
That's your first???? Looks like a seasoned pro.
-
Nice design!
-
I was able to read it all easily. You did a fantastic job.

Thanks to all of you. I used to play guitar, and I've always thought that Eddie Van Halen is the greatest.
-
Merlin, I made the pattern from a photo. I used GIMP.
-
I just finished cutting this portrait of my favorite musician. No stain or finish yet.
-
That is INCREDIBLE! Gator, you are a brave scroller.
-
Kevin, you have such amazing talent. I am always impressed with your work. I'm sorry to hear about your pain, but glad you are getting proper treatment. It's sad that it took the medical profession a year to find the problem.
-
Incredible work. I love them both. I vote for unstained finish for the girl.
-
Thank you all. I had fun with this one. I didn't have to design a pattern. I just took one of Schulz's drawings and erased the lines necessary to make it work on the saw. No real planning, just execution, and that part was fun.

Outstanding work!
