Hey guys and gals, I did a little bit of scroll saw work in woodshop classes back in the day, but its been a while so I'm hoping I'm not biting off more than I can chew with this project. I'm trying to make a portrait of my girlfriend and I as a Christmas gift. I have someone else converting a picture to pattern for me because I wasn't happy with my own attempts.
If anyone is able to offer any tips for me I would be so appreciative! Suggestions for type of wood? Blade? Mounting it (thinking mount the cutout onto something dark(?) and make a frame of some kind)? General newbie scroll tips?
Thanks in advance to anyone who can offer advice! I'm really nervous but also super excited to get (back) into this!
