    Thank you Frank. I originally I thought about paint but quickly realized that wasn’t a good idea since I can’t paint a wall in the house without getting paint on everything in the room. Paper was safer for me.
  3. I thought I would try something different. I cut this and it looked like it needed color. So I decided to try cutting colored paper and gluing it to the back out the top layer. Then glue it to the backer and coat with spray polyurethane. I think it turned out pretty well. I thought I would share
  4. Very nice!
  5. Nice work! I can see a lot of areas I would have broke it if it was me cutting it
  6. I just bought one a month ago for $350!

    Good point! I didn’t notice that, but now that you mentioned it. I found 2 of these at a garage sale still in the plastic for a dollar. This is what I used the other one on

    A friend is retiring and loves eagles, I decided to try on of Grampa’s patterns the eagle to give to her. But I wanted to add a clock to it. This is what I ended up with, I’m pretty happy with it. thank you grampa for the pattern.
  14. Thank you for all the comments
  15. They are from Steve Goods free patterns in the Scrollsaw workshop there are some motorcycle patterns here also in the transportation section
  16. This was made from the same door as the last one I struggled with. I’m not sure what it is. this time I resawed it to 5/16” thick. It cut much better.
  17. Dry nice! I would be scared of the thin cuts
  18. That looks great!
  19. I have been working on this on and off for a few days when I have time. I still have some work to do around the base. But I’m happy with the way it’s looking so far. It’s a combination of 2 patterns. There is a 1/2” spacer between the front and back to give it some depth.
  20. I did switch blades, most of it was done with a #7 Olson but the letters I went to a small blade. thanks for the comment
  21. I’m not real happy with it but it was good practice. i was doing good on 1/4” plywood so I thought I would try real wood. When I was cutting the wheels the blade seemed to have a mind of its own, sometimes it followed the grain. It was made from 3/4” cabinet door. I’m not sure what kind of wood it is but it’s pretty hard
  22. Very nice! I’m still having trouble with smooth turns
  23. She is always looking for treats, she would do anything to get cheese!
  24. Downloaded this pattern from this site. Thought I would give it a try. cut from old cabinet a door.
  25. Thank you for the nice comments! After browsing through the things the members have made here I might be in a little over my head!
