Looks awesome, thanks for posting. Not bad for a rookie, that is a lot of cuts.  ;)

Wonderful start to hopefully a long relationship with your scroll saw (and us here on the forum!)  Great job! :)

Nicely cut.  I would not have the patience to start and stop and start that many times.  Thanks for sharing it with us.

Thanks, everyone.  I've discovered that I really enjoy fretwork, especially my own patterns;  they're so personal and meaningful.  I also enjoy the fact that when I make a mistake or don't follow a line perfectly, no one knows but me... LOL.

As a 'portrait cutter' I can attest that this is a fine piece of work!

Well done, 'rookie'!
