    Great find!

    I'm not sure what plywood you are using but if I tried to run mine through a planer, I would be left with junk. Also, I believe the interior layers would splinter and rip out. My maple plywood has a filler between the maple layer and back that is almost like cloth. When cutting on the scroll saw it leaves fibers, not like fuzzies but more like lint. It doesn't burn easily either and I have to trim them off with a razor blade.

    Fantastic job, Dick. I understand how fretwork can be addictive. I just finished cutting Jim Blume's stagecoach which I probably have close to 30 hours. I've stained and placed on backer and hope to frame this weekend. I will say that I needed to do something a little easier and set up another (simple) pattern to cut while waiting on finishes/glue to dry on the stagecoach. As for your Mountain Sheep, I'm positive your frame will be outstanding. I believe you have that science down to a snap.

    This particular piece was plywood. Don't think that would hold up going through a planer. In the future, and with more tools and equipment, I would like to use solid woods. Right now I have to rely on ply.

    Well, Dave. Whatever you plant in your pots, make sure you "weed" them well!

    Great job on the cutting, Bob. I believe the hardest thing to recoup from scrolling if you're trying to sell is your time. I just spent 35+ hours cutting a piece and when I went to pull the pattern off, it peeled part of the finish layer of wood along with it. Now I have to see if there is any way possible to make repairs. My hopes are not very high right now.

    Very nice piece, Chris.

    Welcome to the Village from North Carolina. As Mark said, there is a lot of knowledge from the members of this form. Don't hesitate to ask if you have questions.

    I can see the joint as you pointed out but to me it really isn't that big of a distraction. A little glue and sawdust along with an appropriately colored marker would most likely leave the seam completely undetectable. Nice job on cutting.

    Very clean cuts, Blake. I hope you repost some pictures after you have them finished and framed.

    Very nice job, Tim. I saw this pattern when I first started scrolling and though it would be a great one to do after I got some experience under my belt. Now I'm busy with some other scroll projects but I'll remember this one. Again, great job!

    Beautiful piece, Frank.

    Love them both. Excellent cutting and the frames turned out awesome!

    Great job, Charlie... although I'm with John. The only movie I really enjoyed him in was "Night at the Muesum."

    Great job, Tyler. I also cut this pattern some time back. I actually taped a piece of white paper behind the seagulls to make them stand out better rather than having them look like ravens.

    Excellent cutting. As for the top, I believe you have the picture correctly placed with the top of the picture being the top of the ornament. The words are on the left side. The reason for my "guess" is because it looks like there is a hiker climbing the side of a mountain at the right side of the ornament.

    Wow! Very nice! At this stage of my scrolling, I don't want to try attempting a bowl.

    Excellent job, Todd, for creating your own pattern and the cutting as well.

    Whew! After reading the title I was expecting a chair made out of a green leafy plant... Anyway, I think the seat with terracotta planters looks better. Great job.

    I agree with the other comments. Your finish on these is outstanding. Well done!

    Welcome from North Carolina. Looking forward to seeing some of your work!

    Nice one Don. It looks like you used a piece of live edge round disc as a base. Clever!
