Lion and Monkey

[Judy Hunter]

I am in want of simple kids puzzles of about 5 pieces of a lion and a monkey

[mlwmerk]

I've had good luck with the site:  The Wooded Teddy Bear. 

They have wonderful patterns that you can modify or use as is. 

I use the puzzle ones with the name of the animal cut in.  They are very well received as gifts to friends when I ask them what is their favorite animal, fish, bird and then make one for their birthday.   

I cut mine out of three quarter red oak using a lot of #5 skip tooth baldes simply because I like the grain of the wood. 

I probably told you more than you wanted.

Hey mlwmerk, I see this is your first post but you have been a member since the beginning! Why don't you go over to the introduction page and introduce yourself? I'm sure you will have a lot to offer this site!
Welcome.

Hey thanks for the try mlwmerk.  But I am looking for the outline of the animal  not the name.
Remember never too much information when it comes to scroll sawing.  I noticed too that it is your first post.  I am honored to be your start.  Welcome to a great bunch.

I don't know if these will help. Lions, monkeys, bears, maybe. If these are not what you are looking for, google images for lion scroll saw puzzle and monkey scroll saw puzzle.

Will something like this work Judy?  
I can make them bigger if needed.
I have never made a puzzle pattern before.

Thanks so much Russ the lion is perfect.  I will tweak the money a little to give him some cuteness.
I do a collection of kids puzzles and these will fit in great. thanks again for the patterns and all that you do here on the forum.

Is this monkey a little better? 

[Judy Hunter]

I checked the sites before I posted, I use Mcafee site advisor and it usually detects a suspicious site. I apologize if it has spam ware or malicious software, I have removed the suspected link.
