    Rodney, yes I'm cutting by hand. The main thing - fretsawing by hand for me it is a some kind of meditation. I can reach this only with hand fretsawing. But there are bad things - I've brought this last posted coaster to home yesterday from workshop. Just to show it to my wife. Yesterday! Today my wife goes to a work trip (she is associate professor) and coaster will travel with her, as a present to another colleague

    A new coffee or tea coaster. The last one I gave away to a my wife coworker. Again made from alder, with a fretsaw, scrollsaw blades Antilope #2, unfinished on the photos. And the knife is a real Swedish knife Mora. I hope this coaster will stay with me a little more than one week as a last one.

    Dear Gene Howe, Let me disagree with you. I'm cutting with handsaws - jewelry saws and fretsaws (one was modified by me for better work) and cutting line sometimes is not straight, sometimes the angle is not strictly 90 degrees etc. All these defects were corriged with my 'helpers' - needle files, hand cut rasp needle file and coffee sticks with glued sandpaper. I will make the photo of these 'helpers' today. Regards.

    Dear Scrappile, It is not a Swedish knife. This is a French made knife, it's name is Opinel. This is a folding knife, folder. The famous Swedish knives are fanufactured with name Mora. I have them too. Next time I will present a new pattern coaster with Mora.

    Coffee or tea cup coaster for workshop. Or sometimes can be used as a beer coaster, not very often. Made with fretsaw, Antilope #2 blades. An attempt to use celtic cross design.

    This boxes made for knives. Really I make boxes as a gift boxes or presentation boxes for local knifemakers from Ukraine. So every box will contain a knife. Sure. The other boxes are not scrolled. For example the below boxes were made with knifemaker's logo on the lid only.

    G'Day, Just finished two knife boxes - "The Angry Stockfish" and "The New Zealand Stockfish". Why Stockfish? In my country - Ukraine, dry salted fish traditionally eated with beer instead chips. This salted fish named "taranka". I didn't found the detail product in US shops, so Stockfish. Made from pine, 2 layers of black oil for wood. Walls - 10 mm, lid and bottom - 6 mm, the inner insert thickness - 4 mm. Made with hand tools only. The pattern was fretsawed with jewellery fretsaw, blades @Antilope, jewelry blades.
