    Oak Cross

    Thanks everyone
  2. Great job.
  3. Great work! Keep searching there are many different patterns out there. Some are great patterns. Try pintrest, I found several patterns by shutterstock. If you want a project, you can use the Tree of Life from celticartstudio.com ONCE, if you give Jen Delyth credit when you post it. I've done it if you want to see what it is, it's in my library. A project well worth it.
  4. Now that is nice! Great job.

    Oak Cross

    This is another piece my brother gave me. I thought it was a nice piece of oak. It's about 8x14 1/2" thick. It was a very hard piece of wood, not sure why. I used a FD #3. Semi poly for the finish. Thanks for looking.
  9. Great work. I really like the wolf.
  10. Thanks. My brother called them over at Seyco and he told him there’s no longer any parts so he’s gonna keep looking for a different saw. Thanks for helping.
  11. My brother came accross this from a gov. Auction. I can tell it’s older but can anyone tell me more about it? How old, are pieces missing, is it in decent shape and how much do you think it’s worth and sell for? Thanks.
  12. Great job!
  13. Excellent!
  14. I use 3M clear packing tape on the wood, then spray Elmer Craft Bond spray glue on the tape and the back of the pattern. I don't use Duck brand packing tape, the adhesive comes off the tape on to the wood to much. I made a shallow square box and stapled 1/4" hardware cloth on it to spray glue on the patterns.

    Tree of Life

    I was looking on Pintrest for Tree of Life just killing time and found it and several other patterns I found in the past. I had to modify it a little but it was easy to do.
  18. Sharp work!
  19. Nice tree!

    Tree of Life

    Thanks everyone. My brother is the one who told me about the 321. It is 3 parts mineral spirit, 2 parts polyurethane and one part Boiled linseed oil. It dries really fast and I found using satin finish wasn't what I wanted in the end so I switched to semi gloss and it comes out pretty nice. I have read articles on sanding the first coat in to the wood but I don't know if it would do anything for it. I've never tried it. I use a second coat right after the first one soaks in and wiping away the excess. I never make more than 3 oz. of mineral spirit, two oz. of poly and one oz. of BLO I'll never use it fast enough. I always use rubber gloves too, wiping it on with a cloth or using a brush.
  21. I did this one from a piece of cherry my brother gave me. I'm gonna give it to him for Christmas. I showed him a little at Thanksgiving on my scroll saw, he's bought a used saw and gonna give it a try. If I counted right there is 120 cuts on the outside and 54 on the inside. Total time was probably 4 hours. I finished it with 321. It's about 3/8" thick and I cut it with a # 1 FD. Thanks for looking.
  22. Great job!
