Well I have been looking for lights and have looked on Amazon, Ebay as sell as specialty lighting companies and model railroad companies.  Almost everything is 3' long with the lights space 2" apart or so.  Although most can be cut shorter that is still a lot of wire to get in a small area.

I'm also looking at EL Wire, also known as Electroluminescent wire and even thinking about plastic fiber optics.  One of my favorite light I had and still have is a glass fiber optic fan burst with a color wheel below.  I watched that thing for quite a while when I was in college!  (No, not under any influence.  )

I did see some strands of lights that were 20" long and were battery powered without a timer.  There are $1.65 per strand, but I didn't check the shipping.

If anyone else knows of anything, let us know please!

Nice work on the scroll saw Tyler.  I'll be looking over other of your videos as well!  Subscribed as well.

Nice work on the entries.  How deep was the first one after adding 5 more layers?  What is the thickness of each layer?

I have an index for Creative Woodworks I put together a few years back. I have almost all the issues except for the earliest ones.

Send me a PM and I'll send it to you!

Well done Rodney.  I can see what you are saying about the plywood you are using.  You have to watch out for voids as well.

You can check Michaels and Hobby Lobby for smaller pieces of plywood (12" x 24").  They are usually very clean and have no voids.

More great projects Roy.  Now there's something more along the lines I like to cut!

That's amazing!

I bet those took some time to cut!  Something I wouldn't do. 

Awesome.

It appears this is a product which is for sale across a number of online stores. (Amazon, Ebay, Etsy, Serendipie, etc.)

There are other options which is not that product available other places:  Instructables, Startathomedecor.
They are much more minimalist in nature, but they have patterns available for free it appears.

Type in "Nativity Puzzle" in a search box on your browser, then click on images and go from there on something that you might like.

You might consider using the "Wayback Machine" website.

I just went on there and typed in "arpop".  The last captures appear to be from 2016.  Maybe the site no longer exists as it once did.

When I clicked your link it says the same about the gmail account.  Thing is I never was on the site with my Gmail account because it is relatively new and it's been years since I was on arpop site.

So here is the first link I clicked on:  https://web.archive.org/web/20190725135108/http://fssp-arpop.blogspot.com/

You can pretty much use it to find downloads as well.  I clicked through some links and got the PDF for state ornaments for instance.

See if that helps.
