Thanks all. I appreciate the leads. The spring for the tree does seem to be a hard item to find. There are some links but they seem to be dead ends. https://www.etsy.com/listing/260008367/glitter-spring-coil-base-christmas-tree I'll also probably end up making something.

Hmm, answering my own post - using the Microsoft CoPilot site might lead to some interesting designs if I figure out the right wording to ask it.

My store-bought Christmas tree topper light-up angel burned out last year. I'd like to make a 3D star or angel that I could use, maybe multiple layers with LEDs. I did a SSV search but didn't turn up much. Has any seen any nice looking scrollsawn ones? Thanks in advance!

Alex, your creativity in patterns never ceases to amaze me. Well done!

A friend is a huge Chicago Sky fan (Women's NBA). His birthday was last week so I made him a wall hanging. It's hard to see but there are LED lights behind it. It's three layers of primed MDF with a couple of coats of spray paint.

Not really sure. I just call it a layered sports logo. Have made quite a few.

Bigprint is another option to printing large items on smaller paper -- https://woodgears.ca/bigprint/

I finished this one just in time. Found the pattern on Etsy and changed the name to YTB = "You're The Best"! Bob

Paul - I did a few modifications to your pattern to remove the body and zoom in on the face. I was able to get it done in time for Christmas. I really appreciate the pattern! Bob

Thanks Paul!!!! I'll give it a shot and post a photo when I get it done. Bob

Hi All - this little guy was 12 years old and had to be put down last month. I'd love to give his owner a framed scroll saw version of the photo for Christmas but my pattern-making skills just aren't at this level yet. If anyone has time and can convert this to a pattern I'd greatly appreciate it. The image is only 600K but I've not been successful in tracking down the original. Thanks! Bob

Thanks Paul and Travis. I went with Travis' pattern and while it took me a while to get to I think it came out OK. Thanks so much for the patterns! Bob

I found out I'm allergic to cedar. Had the mask and glasses but no gloves. The skin peeled off the palms of my hands. That same website has a toxicity list for most woods: https://www.wood-database.com/wood-articles/wood-allergies-and-toxicity/

I did this Portuguese water dog a couple of years back as a Christmas gift. I have another Travis pattern that I want to get to as well.

I haven't forgotten about this one. I still have a bat house, colorado flag, and Chicago Cubs logo to make before I can get back to scrolling!
