Thanks again for making the pattern for me

Yes and thank you again

I have a really "big scroll saw" No each the staff is made of individual 11" long pieces for each line of the staff. The notes are one piece cut with the exception of the triple note which I cut in 2 pieces and glued together. Thanks to all for the comments as it reinforces my desire to strive to become a good scroller.

It is 4 ft high and 7 ft long. As for paper it was 42 pages of 8.5 x 11.

Well I finally finished the project. My wife loves it. I have learned a lot that I can now better myself on other projects. I used Rapid Re-sizer to enlarge the pattern (42 pages of 8.5 x 11 ") cutting each staff piece individually and gluing together. This has been made from all 1 x 10 pine with the notes stained with dark walnut and the staff with semi-gloss spray. I left the staff to have a hand drawn effect hence the irregular lines/spacing.

Painless blades..... hmmm now that would be an excellent invention for the next time you run your finger a little too close to the blade.

Hi Erv, sorry for the late reply. My in-laws are Percy and Elsie Lilly.

Welcome to the village. My in-laws live in Corner Brook. Cheers from NB Brian

Welcome from Rusagonis New Brunswick Canada. You will enjoy hours of scrolling as I have found out in the last 4 months. Brian

I designed it myself using MS Publisher.

Thanks for all the comments. I am glad I have found this site as it is a great experience to meet many gifted scrollers. Merry Christmas to all this year.

This started off as an running joke with a good friend of ours so I decided to try a simple sign design to see if it would turn out. I used 3/4" pine for the letters and a 1/4" birch ply backer. I used Edwardian Script ITC for the letters and I stained the backer with Dark Walnut and use Gloss spray lacquer on the letters and a quick coat to seal the backer board.

Melanie, great work. I tried it and love doing it.

Thanks for all the comments.

Very impressive
