Brag Forum / HeartKnob Pattern
« on: January 21, 2020, 07:38:49 am »
The HeartKnob
Here's a little project for Valentine's Day.  You might want to make some of these little HeartKnobs for your scroll sawing Heartthrobs.  This is for people who might be finding it a little less easy to tighten that little black knob on their Excalibur, Pegas, or Dewalt (the list goes on).  Just insert this over the black knob and snug up your blade before cutting. Some people might find this a bit "heart wrenching" but others might use it and take your concern for them "to heart."  Your heart might "sink" when a blade breaks, but.... ENOUGH WITH THE HEART JOKES!.
Ok.  I hope you like this project.  I cut mine from 3/4" cherry and rounded the edges on my router -- you might want to do this if you are going to give it as a gift, but it can be cut from just about any wood.  Also might have to adjust the size of the insert hole, depending on how close you cut it.
You can download the pattern from my Free Pattern Page: http://baggetta.com/pebooks/puzzle_patterns.htm

Brag Forum / Soccer Inlay Table Sign Pattern
« on: January 02, 2020, 08:30:26 am »
Soccer has become quite the popular sport and is admired by many rabid fans.  So it is fitting that we have an unusual table sign that soccer lovers can enjoy.  Usually I put the figures on top of or aside of the word, but I tried something a little different this time, injecting the action into the word itself.  I cut mine from 1/4"  cherry wood and mounted it on the off cut of the same type of wood adding an improvised swirl to the base.

Retired:  Not My Problem Table Sign Pattern
 I had a job once, I think....Many years ago in a galaxy far far away.  I've been retired for about 15 years and loving every minute of it.  When you think back on it, it's funny how many problems you were involved in or had to solve over the years. Now I can do pretty much whatever I want.  Don't be afraid of retirement.  This sign says it all.  I cut mine from cherry and mounted it on an improvised top layer of cherry from the off cut.  I sat the whole thing on a thin slab of sapele to finish it off.  Get free pattern at my website: http://baggetta.com/pebooks/puzzle_patterns.htm

Brag Forum / Old And In The Way

In today's society you might sometimes feel this way as you
get older.  I cut this humorous sign from plain ol' pine and used the
off cut for the base.  Makes and interesting falling-apart base.  You
can pick up the free pattern on my FREE PATTERN page:http://baggetta.com/pebooks/puzzle_patterns.htm

Brag Forum / American Veterans Table Sign
« on: March 31, 2019, 08:28:52 am »
This sign captures the importance of all veterans and their contributions to our nation.  I cut mine from Ambrosia Maple and salvaged the top layer of the base from the same blank, cutting an improvised layer.  Also salvaged the two inner stars I cut out to use and end pieces, and the whole piece was then mounted on a piece of Sapele I had lying around.  Remember to check out all the scrap from a project.  Sometimes you can use it to dress up the final work.  You can download the free pattern from my FREE PATTERN pagehttp://baggetta.com/pebooks/puzzle_patterns.htm

Tutorials, Techniques and Tips / LP Record Wall Art Tutorial
« on: February 13, 2017, 01:04:08 pm »
Hi.  I've been working on cutting out some LP records and have developed a few techniques that might be of interest.  I've posted a video tutorial on YouTube explaining how I approach the topic. The video show how to cut a 78 RPM record, but the application is the same.  I usually doe two records stacked at a time.  If interested, here's the link
