  1. Hello all, I don't make many boxes but thought I'd give this one a try. Quite pleased with how it turned out. Regards, Alan.
  2. I usually scan the page of the book with the pattern I want then convert it to a PDF file and store it on an external hard drive. I can then resize it to whatever size I need. The problem I encounter sometimes is that the pattern is too close to the spine of the book and this makes it difficult to scan on my scanner. I don't like the idea of cutting up a good book either.
  3. Another very nice trivet !
  4. Very impressive looking bowls.
  5. I'd forgotten about that one !
  6. Some nice looking items there, glad you had a good day.
  7. A beautifully cut trivet, I have the same pattern book and am about to start the Butterfly pattern. May take me a while though !
  8. Very nice, the different woods really complement each other.
  9. Hello all, Cut this Cheetah from a cheap Bamboo chopping board then added a black backer board, approximately 7 inches by 10 inches. Pegas reverse skip tooth no3. Regards, Alan.
  10. Wonderful picture.
  11. Beautiful, I would display that on my wall any day.
  12. Like the design of those, very nice.
  13. They are really nice.
  14. I think you may be on the right track there
  15. Thank you, Unfortunately I have absolutely no idea how to post a link on a computer It is something I need to look into I think.
  16. Thank you Tom, I have no idea what wood our kitchen table is made from but it was purchased from a furniture store.
  17. Hello all, I recently purchased this set of 16 stencils from Amazon to make trivets and coasters. They are about 6 inches square and made from a thin flexible plastic, you can attach them to a piece of paper then using a fine pen or pencil simply draw around the cut outs in the stencil and this will give you your pattern for scrolling. The method I use however is to place a piece of dark card behind the stencil and then scan it on my printer. I can then print of the design at whichever size I wish. The second picture is one I am making at the moment. Hope this gives some of you some ideas for trivets and coasters. Regards, Alan.
  18. Hey Tyler, another lovely scroll saw project. Always enjoy watching your videos and the things you make. You always inspire me to keep practicing and get better. Regards, Alan.
  19. Very nice indeed, the wood suits the subject really well
  20. Nice cutting and pattern.
  21. Beautiful work.
  22. Thanks, the Bamboo board cut very easy and cleanly, thought I'd give one a try due to the low cost. I don't think it would be suitable for all projects though particularly if you need a nice wood grain finish etc. Hope that helps.
  23. Cut from a cheap 1/4 inch thick Bamboo chopping board. Pegas spiral no.2 Regards, Alan.
  24. Very nice indeed.
