    What's a Hawk 220 scroll saw worth these days that's in good shape? I have an opportunity to buy one used but not sure what they sell for?

    You don't need a vacuum press table to glue the project like in the video and yes Scrappile it is the packet type cutting that I had stated about as being one of the easyest to do...

    Ray you are correct if you are doing the double bevel technique and cutting each piece in one at a time, but if you are doing packet cutting you cut all the pieces of veneer at once up to about 16 different species of veneer and just assemble them to together like a puzzle at 90 degrees were as the double bevel cut they are cut one at a time and fit together like a cork in a bottle due to the 8 degree angle. Lots of different techniques as everyone seems to have there preference. knife, packet, double bevel, coping saw, chevalet, laser, and so on. I think the packet cut is the easiest to learn especially for a scroller

    I use veneer tape on every marquetry project I have done unless I am using hide glue then not so much. Veneer tape works for all sort of thing during the process, and comes off very easy with water, scraper or sander. Blue tape is a must as well. But should not be used during glue ups. Not sure what you mean by veneer knife. An exacto knife or hobby knife is used a lot though. Package cutting is the easiest as all the pieces fit just back together like a puzzle just make sure your saw is 90 degrees and cutting up and down and not front to back or angled

    The chevalet is one of many ways to cut. With the chevalet you can cut very small and intricate pieces, also you have a lot of control due to you control the cut speed. A hand coping saw is similar as if you look at the chevalet you can see the arm and it looks like a coping saw but with the chevalet the arm (coping saw part) is mounted with its articulating movement so you have tremendous accuracy and control. Also, it cuts perfectly at 90 degrees which is key to assembling the piece once cut out. Also, unlike intarsia there is no sanding. Once cut it just assembles like a puzzle, assemble is the easy part. You can cut on a Scrollsaw but not to this degree as I have done both, but you can do great work on a Scrollsaw.

    You mention the CSFM the guy (Paul / Ship wright) who started the CSFM he had taken a class the same time I was at ASFM and went on to start the CSFM in Canada. http://thecanadianschooloffrenchmarquetry.com/

    Kind of funny you posted a picture of this box as it was one of 5 Identical box's that Patrick Edwards was making at his studio (ASFM) when I was taking a marquetry class with him. He stated he had them all pre sold at $5,000 each. All made with veneer cut on the chevalet.

    As we are talking about ways to cut marquetry here is a link to the chevalet I made after I took a class at the American School of French Marquetry with Patrick Edwards in San Diego, California. https://www.lumberjocks.com/projects/83169

    Trapper John, what time of day are the zoom meetings and what day of the week?
  21. rustynail
    Any one seen or use one of these? I see they use it for sanding as well.. Its at the 9:16 point in this video. Not for fine cutting but can cut some different kinds of material.

    First of I’d like to thank Travis and Clayton for all they do for the site as I can only imagine the amount of work it takes to keep this going along with all the time out of their own busy scheduals to do so. Second, I guess I learned something new as I did not realize that once an individual has passed and there is no longer a way to get prints that they still fall under copyright guidelines for that far afterwards?? Myself I respect copyrights and the efforts and livelihood for everyone making them and for making plans available for sale for us scrollers as I feel all the plans, I have purchased from various avenues have been more than reasonable for what they are. Just like when someone here makes a piece and all the time and effort it takes to do so.

    After reading the “Wood Gear Clock” post I saw that some of the companies that had plans for clocks also had kinetic sculptures that looked cool and I am thinking about making one. Has anyone made one and if so what are your thoughts and what company did you buy it from? Or what company would you recommend? From what I have been looking at some sell the plans but not the spring or hardware? If you have made one were or what did you do for hardware as far as obtaining it? Thanks Richard
