Need some help
« on: March 17, 2012, 10:51:41 am »
For my next intarsia piece I want to do something for my son who works in the oil patch in Fort McMurray , Alberta. His birthday is in May.  I have searched the web and found pictures of these heavy haulers. He talks about these all the time. They are hugh :o. I would like also to have "Fort McM" incorporated somewhere into the piece. Is there anyone out there who would like to put together a pattern for me? ;D  Your help will be greatly appreciated.  I got the pictures from the public domain so copyright should not be an issue. Also the piece is a gift.  Thanks

Paul this is just dandy. I can make this work. Is there any way to place a pickup truck into the pattern, this would show just how BIG these things are maybe between the front wheels, on on the top rail of the box. Color is no problem as I may have to paint to get the correct match. Thanks for your input. ;D ;D
