Cedar would be a good option. Plan to paint the project either way. Just need to figure out where I could find some cedar plywood.

I have an order for an outdoor sign of a chicken for their chicken coop. My first thought is use pressure treated plywood but then that will likely have holes in the layers that won't be best. Other option I can think of is using regular baltic birch plywood with an exterior primer paint applied. Have others done outside signs? What materials were used? Thanks in advance.

Made presents for my parents this year. My mom loves black bears and my dad likes the 1950s trucks. The bear is a Steve Good pattern and the truck pattern I had help from one of the members here in the pattern request section.

Thanks. I feel like I'm getting better with each piece.

He has been a harley rider the whole time I've known him. With a ton of memorabilia already. I made one for a cousin's boyfriend and he asked where was his. Now he will have one as well. Yes, each letter was cut separately painted then attached to the backer board. I used a vector of the logo that I blew up to be 2 feet wide. Where I work has access to a plotter printer.

Finished this this past weekend. Second sign I've made. This one is for my uncle for Christmas.

My dog is overall doing well but it will be a long battle for her depending on treatment options. Thank you. I didn't visit with my family for long in July. Unfortunately we were also meeting to grieve the death of a family member. I'm not very close with my extended family. I have seen the rest of my family much less this year than in previous. That is tough to not see your kids for that long. Hopefully things will get better for everyone and you can see your kids sooner. Facetime is nice but nothing like the in person.

Thank you all for the warm welcome. I may not get on my computer often but once I can get the forum figured out on my phone I can be more active. Will work on posting more pictures of my work in the forums and being more active. Jennifer

My name is Jennifer. I live in a small town in Virginia. I just got started with learning scroll saw work last year. Tried my hand at with my dad's shopsmith scroll saw and loved it. Now I own a Dewalt and love it. I have always helped my dad with woodworking or house projects growing up. Took me a while to find my hobby but I'm not going back now. Excited to learn more as I go. Unfortunately, I don't have a very large workshop area since I have a small townhouse. Can't wait to buy a different house with an actual dedicated woodshop area. I've made a Facebook page showing my work thus far. https://www.facebook.com/Dog-Dragon-Woodcraft-108423967382470. Haven't updated it in a while since my current projects are Christmas presents for family and I've been dealing with a severe health issue with my dog. But hoping that 2021 will be a better year all around, as the rest of the world is I'm sure. I'm not very active on forums yet but like talking with others to learn or just to get to know others with similar interests. Happy to be here. Jennifer
