« on: December 20, 2014, 05:19:02 pm »Wish I could do that!
You can do this. It is not real hard to do at all. Just takes a little practice is all. There is a book that has been put out by Carole Rothman called Wooden Bowls from the Scroll Saw here is a link to it on Amazon - http://www.amazon.com/Wooden-Bowls-Scroll-Easy---Make/dp/1565234332/ref=sr_1_1?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1419113820&sr=1-1&keywords=wooden+bowls+from+the+scroll+saw. The book gives you good instruction on making bowls from the very simple to the more complex. It is a good book for your scrolling library.

Brag Forum / Spalted Maple Oval Bowl
« on: December 18, 2014, 11:19:24 pm »
I had a small piece of spalted maple ( 4 x 7 x 3/4 ) left over from another project. I decided to make a bowl from it. The bowl is 3 3/4 inches wide x 6 1/2 long and 3 inches tall. The wall thickness started off at 1/4 inch and is more like 3/16 inch thick now. I sealed the bowl with tung oil and then top coated it with shellac.

General Scroll Saw Talk / Re: Plastic sheet??
« on: December 12, 2014, 09:50:54 pm »
Most of what you will find in the big box stores will be .091 inches thick or thinner. To get .25 you will have to go to someplace like this - http://www.ebay.com/bhp/1-4-lexan. Lexan or even Acrylic at that thickness is not cheap. I saw one link to a site that carries product that was inches thick and they were very proud of their product. Expect to shell out a fair amount for it at 1/4 of an inch.

General Scroll Saw Talk / Re: Signing your work
« on: December 12, 2014, 09:43:00 pm »
I usually do one of 2 things. I put a DW and a date on it someplace or if the spot is big enough I have a branding iron that I got for my last birthday and I brand my work. I generally also put a small card that tells the new owner what wood was used, the pattern designer ( if not me ) and the particulars of the piece.
