Intarsia / Re: First intarsia job

I usually always start with 3/4 dressed lumber.

I have done appliques and ornaments that I start with less.

I started with a book by Judy Gale Roberts and all her patterns are 3/4.

Also, check out Bruce Worthington as he has an e-book instruction book at http://www.intarsia.net/

Good Luck
Thank you for sharing the intarsia 101 link

Good job on the "Clown drop". I've made two of them....I have two grandsons.
Next thing on the list in a year or two will be one of these.....

I am fascinated by gears and marble machines, I have plans to start working on some of these projects.

Boy oh boy,   besides doing a great job,   I am jealous of how neat your shop is!

LOL, Thank You - This is my upstairs shop, which is my home office/scale model building room.  That's not to say my main workshop is messy LOL... I probably spend has much time cleaning up, has I do working on projects

Toy Makers / Clown Drop for Grandson - Steve Good Pattern

« on: October 03, 2015, 07:08:26 pm »

Good Day Folks!
 
Project Completed!  I am going to make another one, that he can take home with him.  I am going to add his name going down the board, and make a better clown on that one.  It makes me smile, how much this simple toy makes him laugh.



I also made a quick video of Aiden enjoying his new toy.  Not sure how to embed the video, so I provided a link below

Been doing well, was busy getting the new house in order, then work was really busy.  I plan on being around more in the new year, and get back to having fun on the scroll saw, now that I have a climate contralled workshop    Hope all has been well, with you and yours.

Pattern Requests. / For Friends Church

« on: October 25, 2011, 05:47:17 pm »

Good Day Folks!

Was wondering, if one of you kind folks can help me make a pattern with the attached picture.  Not sure if it should be a portrait type, plaque, or another type.  Would like it to be a little bigger than the picture, since my skills at cutting smaller letters are not on par yet. This is for my Co-Workers church, he is always very helpful, to the community, and I though i would be a nice jester.

Thanks in advance,

Steven

Good Day Folks!

Thank you all for the replies, I have the whole assostment of FD Blades.  I also have the whole assortment of the drill bits, that are sold on the site.  I was think of using my wood burner, instead of cutting it out, as I am not the talnted on the saw yet.

General Scroll Saw Talk / Employee of the Month Pattern

« on: October 03, 2011, 06:35:08 pm »

Good Day Folks!

It's been awhile since I hung out here.  Finally have gotten settled in the new house, and the climate controlled basement workshop squared away.  I have  a question about the employee of the month pattern, how does one cut those small letters out in the middle of the star? What blade size? Where to drill the pilot holes?

Thanks in advance, and hope all has been well,

Steven
