  1. Steering mechanism of model. stv1.mp4 stv2.mp4 stv3.mp4 VID_20240211_150105187~4stv4.mp4 VID_20240211_150105187~4stv4.mp4
  2. Thanks. yes really takes a lot of patience. The finished one is actually the second model because the first one I was working on , which was about halfway done , accidently fell off my workbench and ended up on floor in a dozen or so pieces, lol.
  3. I did this model because it's a model of my car that I presently own. I just take the pictures online and take photos of the interior of the car and resize them with Inkscape after tracing the bit map.
  4. Thanks. I built this model because it's the model of my car that I presently own. I had also built a model of my 2008 kia Sportage that I owned at the time. It won 2nd prize in *Scroll saw Woodworking &Crafts* magazine's 2016 People's Choice Awards. I used glass for the cover and plexiglass for the sides. Just added a few pics of my Google Sketup drawings, thought it might help to give you an idea how to build your case.
  5. Thanks...the more details the more I enjoy doing this hobby.
  6. Thanks....a lot of work cutting those rims involving turning on lath and scroll sawing the spokes.
  7. I picked this car because that is the car that I presently own...lol
  8. Inlaid butterfly 2
  9. Thanks. Yes took quite a while for the painted one, quite a few steps to cut out the different colored parts by individual layers, but enjoyed every hours involved.
  10. Practicing my inlay cutting with scroll saw. A few flaws here and there , but came out fairly good. Would I call this inlay fretwork, lol. The patterns are by Alison Tanner.
  11. Thanks Charlie E. I suppose doing a lot of scrolling helps a lot doing those projects. Just got to work on hiding the entry holes.
  12. Thanks for your advice Jim. Sounds great, will try that method on my next project.
  13. The welcome and sea horse are 1/8'' birch and oak plywood and the Barbara one is birch plywood and mahogany.
  14. I tried mixing sawdust from under the scroll saw with wood glue, but did not come out that good. I may try the box of crayons.
