  1. The pattern is a by Steve Good. I altered the size of the box to suit. I made the side walls thicker also to make it easier for gluing. I also miters the sides instead of cutting them out of one piece of wood. His pattern was not calling for an inlay but I wanted the challenge. I will say the it was the toughest inlay to date. I used maple and walnut. I definitely made it for my own enjoyment because I could never charge enough to pay for my time.
  2. Ron glad you are on the mend. I think the root of the problem is that you use a scraper instead of a sander.......I've heard that sawdust helps strengthen the heart. Just kidding. Time to retire and scroll. Will be thinkin of you.
  3. That is wild. Looks great! Great use of scraps.
  4. Great pattern and cutting Ralph.
  5. Enjoyed your post. I too have bought a couple of plans from Iggy. Great service, price and quality. I have also bought a couple of plans from Scroll Saw Goodies............Travis's site. I always like to support those who give sooo much to me.

  9. I have also used Masonite for a backer. It is dark in color and it is cheap.

  15. AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAmazing. I always look forward to seeing your work. Great picture. Is that pretty fragile?
  16. Beautiful job. You can sure cut a lot straighter than I can.
  17. Very nice work. I don't call producing projects like that killing time.
  18. Could it be mahogany?
  19. I am thinking about making this box. Do you have any suggestions on gluing the the inside of the box to the bottom. As thin as it is I am concerned with glue squeezing out all over. The only thing I can think of is to clean it up with a wet rag and hope it finishes O. K. Gluing the outside to the top isn't a problem because I can keep the glue to the outside. If it squeezes out I can sand it off. I would appreciate any input. Thanks dragonbox.pdf
