Another Tennessee welcome. Glad to have you and look forward to your participation.

Congratulations on your new saw. Glad you are enjoying it. Nice work on that pattern.

Beautiful looking bowl Ray. I still need to try my first Inlay. What were your errors that you learned from if you don’t mind sharing?

Awesome looking projects. Glad you are doing better and able to scroll again. No doubt, great therapy. Glad you can join in again here.

Excellent work by Jerry on the pattern and you on the cutting.

Looks great as usual Kevin. I thought about trying to cut some of that one but haven’t yet. Maybe you inspired me. time will tell.

Guess you will be well stocked and ready for 2021 then won’t you And you are forgiven

Nice work Dick. I can see why your wife would be happy and you got orders for more on the plaque.

Beautiful craftsmanship Ron.

Nice work Edward. Thanks for showing.

Looks great Kevin. I am sure Linda will love it.

Thanks for sharing your story as a reminder to all. This is why I let my husband cut whatever I need done on the table saw. Glad you were not seriously hurt and yes, put that blade guard back on.

Hi Anthony and another Tennessee welcome to the village. Glad you have joined us. Look forward to your participation.

Just as an FYI, there is the “Keep on Truckin” font you can get from Dafont.com for free. It might help in making your pattern. Here is the link to it: https://www.dafont.com/keep-on-truckin-fw.font

Nice work Kevin.

Blessings to all no matter your faith. Happy Easter to all my Christian friends. Happy Birthday to Ray and munzieB.

Actually, that blue dot will become a star if you comment on a thread. So if you see a blue star, you know you already commented on it. It does not however change if you don’t comment, but only hit the reaction button to give it a like with the heart, the trophy, or face. Same thing with the star, like the dot, it will take you to the last read post you read. Also, if it is not blue (the dot or the thread title) then there have not been any further posts to it since you last looked or commented.

Excellent pattern, excellent cutting and framing.

Turned out beautiful Denny. Are you keeping it or going to put it in the store to sell (once you can reopen?)

Well, I haven't really completed any scroll saw projects yet. I've been working a little bit out there, but not a lot. First, I had both of my eyes lenses replaced in the couple weeks just before the pandemic shut everything down (think same surgery as for cataracts, but without the cataracts). Was having my one week checkup on my second eye about the time they started slowly shutting many things down. As a result, I have been out of the shop letting my eyes heal and staying away from saw dust. I have recently been out there for a little bit, wearing eye protection and face mask. Maybe I will have something to share wood related soon. I also have had my adult daughter home from grad school (physical therapy) for the past 3+ weeks. She was "passing through" on her way to a 10 week clinical rotation when she got word that it was being postponed "indefinitely". It was suppose to go until about the end of May, and so far its looking like she (and all of her classmates) will not get this one in right now. We are praying that she can start her next one in June on time. As a result, she has elected to stay here with us for now. I enjoy having her, she likes to cook! Anyway - my husband is in healthcare - not frontline, front and center like in the ER but still out there everyday so I made him and us and some extended family members face masks once the CDC recommended that we all wear them when we go out. The camouflage ones were for him - I thought they were fitting in that we are fighting a battle in healthcare right now! I used a couple of different patterns. I said its funny, i can saw a much straighter line on a scroll saw then I can sew one on a sewing machine. My mother was the seamstress, she sewed us barbie clothes, clothes for us when we were young, older, and for our children. She made baby blankets for ours and anyone else she knew expecting (including every baby in her church.) We lost her to Alzheimer's 4 years ago this week. I said she is either up there laughing at me, or shaking her head in despair at my sewing skills. She would have had 100's made in the time it took me to make 10! I used two different patterns. The second photo shows the ones that "fit" your face a little more then the first ones. The first ones are more like surgical masks that are not as form fitting to your face. Here is the links to where I found the patterns. This is link to the first one: https://www.joann.com/how-to-make-a-face-mask/042188731P321.html and this is the second one: https://www.craftpassion.com/face-mask-sewing-pattern/#face-mask-video
