I have run into the same problem. The holes of the deck can bid up on small cuts. Just wondering if filling them with solder and sanding them flush would be an option? If that works, having the deck powder coated for a totally smooth and slick surface??

Hey gang, Microsoft/Bing has a translator. Just highlight text and right click and a pull down menu comes up and one of the options is Bing translator. A screen comes up with the original language on the left and a choice of languages on the right of the screen. Choose English. Translation should show up but be advised it is not totally accurate. Because German tends to put the verb at the end of a sentence, syntax can be off. Give it a try.

Great workmanship!

My wife is a humming bird nut. She has even had them feed out of her hand. I'm afraid to show her this work because I know she would want one and I know I could not match your detail for all the fine holes and beauty of this piece. Amazing!

Amazing work! All beautiful!

Smaller cuts but great detail. Understated can be over joy! Really like it.

It definitely would be more convenient to offer the same option like in the User Gallery for the Bragging Rights forum. I've seen this issue on other postings. Software update?

:confused:I just added some more projects to my User Gallery and Bragging forum. In the User gallery I am able to rotate the pictures for proper alignment. In the Bragging forum I could not find a similar option. I even rotated it in my file directory folder and sill no joy. I tried both of the upload options. What am I missing or is that not an option in Bragging Rights? Misaligned and befuddled.

Well... Wife wanted another clock. Found this design on Pinterest. 3/8" BBPW with 2 each 3/4" Pine board backers. Actually easier to cut pattern than cutting and matching up the 2 backer boards. After a fair amount of filing and sanding, drilled some guide pins to keep everything even and then Titebond glued them together and clamped. The clock works are from Clockit. Looks like there may some less expensive clock sources around. Pinned nailed face pattern to backer, and of course, wife did the painting. The clock inventory keeps growing... Not looking forward to daylight savings! LOL!

Thanks all, this was another request of my wife. She did the bead work on the feathers. She makes jewelry also.

Great Looking clock. Color contrasts really work well.

Thanks' all. I used Poplar. Very fragile! Tips of feathers broke more than once. I just finished a project using Bubinga box and I broke so many blades, I didn't want to break so many on this project. I think I only used 2 blades. I tried some spiral blades because of the very irregular shapes and narrowness of the cuts but the blade would pull up the pattern and I could not follow the line. I went back to puzzle blades with better results.

Another quick Sue Mey Project. Eagle Dream Catcher.

My wife and I thank you for your kind words. Starting on another clock I found on Pinterest. May have started an addiction!

Thanks all again for all the nice thoughts. My wife paints all the time and in fact, we are running out of walls for all her paintings. At one time, she taught a technique called "one stroke" where the brush is loaded with several colors at one time. I have to say I did, very much, enjoy this project but making the back presented more problems. I was fixated on making sure all 3 pieces were perfectly even. I glued and pin nailed them together and did ALOT of sanding to make it look even. After spraying it semi gloss black, I realized the detail was not so important. The color hid any blemishes still there. Now I'm on a mission to find a similar clock pattern.

Great looking project! -
My wife and I thank you for the compliments. The two pictures are actually a before and after. She liked it so much, I may have to do another.
-
My wife found this pattern on Sue Mey's site and fell in love with it. "Happy Wife, Happy Life" Fun project to do. Backed up the frame with some scrap pine. Clock was from Clockit. My wife painted the face.

Welcome Aboard! Used to spend a fair amount of time on "the Island" when I lived in the area. A whole lot of great info on this site and lots of good insight if you are looking to upgrade your scroll saw. Post some pictures and keep making saw dust.

Welcome From SC. Lots of knowledge and great people here!

Welcome aboard from the south side of the mountain. Don't be surprised that for every question, you will get a lot of answers. All good! Scrollers are a helpful bunch. Remember to follow the lines and make more dust!

German Scroll Saw Magazine - Feinschnitt
munzieb replied to NC Scroller's topic in General Scroll Sawing
Checked out the web site and with my HS German and being stationed there 3.5 years, was able to chew through it. It looks pretty good and I'm having my wife's family send me a copy. I should receive it after Christmas along with assorted goodies. I'll let you know how it goes.
