Age test: who remember this item or even use it now? One of my customers from Germany asked me to make such pattern. Firstly I tried to make original size I wanted to make it realistic, but it came out very fragile and impossible to cut. I had to removed some details but it was look too simple. So I increesed pattern twise (pattern size is 8 x 5 inches) and here is final variant. I know that it looks like 3D cutting or with carving elements, but pattern is simpler than it appears, it is just glued layers without floating elements (one layer - one piece) Pattern at https://alexscrollsaw.com

Usually when I make pattern I study the object of pattern, I am look throught a lot of images, in this case I also listen some tracks and I like it. Do you listen country music? What do you recommend, I think I like modern country more. And here is preview of my new pattern: 4 layers, recommended size: 7,5 x 8 inches, 1/8 - 1/6 inch thickness pattern at https://alexscrollsaw.com

Most of my patterns and projects are animals, butterflies, sealife etc, but sometimes I want to make something different and unusual. Here is my new pattern: Devil skull - project could be assembled without gluing, with dowels. It consists of 47 pieces and 2 dowels, recommended size: 4,5 x 3,5 x 5,5 inches. Unfortunately I cant cut new projects now, so preview images are not photos, it is 3D visualisation. Pattern at https://alexscrollsaw.com

New wolf pattern, I plan to make several such patterns (silhuette of animal with scene inside). I made two variants: silhuette and framed, as an example added colored variant. Which one do you like more? And one more question: If you need black color how do you get it? Paint, stain or something else? Pattern at https://alexscrollsaw.com

I agree, it is the simplest one, but 13 layers make such great looking effect. Some scrollers dont cut all pieces, I understand that smallest pieces are most difficult, but more layers - better effect. Nice cutting.
-
3/4" is recommended thickness. Unfortunately I dont have an opportunity to cut and test it by myself, but I looked throught some forums and find out that scrollers use 1/2"-1" inch thickness, depends on project size. Recommended hummingbird size about 8x9", also I think it is more stable if you want for the project to stand, but if you want just assembling puzzles you can use thiner wood

Looks great! I like your way of coloring
-
Pattern is correct, some pieces have lines, such way I add more details and avoid small puzzle pieces. Waiting for photos of finished project
-
New year - new patterns. I have arleady made many types of patterns (bowls, 3D, fretwork, layered), but I have never made puzzles. So I tried to make some and and here is what came out. What do you think? Do you make puzzles? Puzzle patterns
-
Unicorn - my new pattern, I like natural wood texture but probably finished project will look nice painted or made of different types of wood. Unicarn pattern
-
Great job! What project size did you choose?
-
Here is my new Celtic cross, it is 5th one, I dont know why but they are quite popular, I just like them because it consists geometric ornaments and has 3D effect Celtic cross pattern
-
The first thing I want to say is that I know nothing about motorcycles, so dont judge strictly. Secondly it is not exact pattern of some motorcycle model. I took some details from different photos, I made it to not violate copyright of famous brands, so I think it came out general pattern of cruisers motorcycle. What do you think? Pattern includes 2 sizes (10 x 5 and 15 x 7,5 inches), recommended to use 2 types of wood or stains. Motorcycle pattern

Recently I saw question at Facebook "What does everyone do with the left over wood from your projects?" I think segmentation is great variant to use it. I already have 7 such patterns and projects, I decided to make one more. Top left is a new one. What do you with left over wood? All patterns at https://alexscrollsaw.com
