Hey Todd.....I was just looking through the gallery and saw your eagle inset. Pretty innovative and real nice work. I've never seen anything inset like that before. I like it!!

Thanks Neal for the good words. Honestly I haven't ever done anything like that before. I just think the eagle and leaf didn't looked very good alone so I added the basswood outer to give it a little bit more life. I have a few other ideas I would like to add into the inset routine, just need to find the materials I need.Todd

Yeah I have to give kudos to you as well. I've seen those leaf patterns all over the place and was kinda getting tired of seeing them. I just didn't like them that much. But after seeing your version I'm seeing them in a new way. I liked it a lot. Very nice work.

I sure appreciate the compliments by all, as a newbie in my first year of scrolling it is nice to hear that I managed to take what I too thought was a rather boring pattern and brought it to life a bit more. I had that leaf and eagle hanging in the shop for over a month before I decided something else needed to be done to it, glad to hear that decision was worth while.Todd

Hi Capt. Rivari is stationed overseas at the moment, but I believe he cut the leaf at a bevel.
The angle of the bevel will determine the height of the piece.Attached FilesLast edited by CanadianScroller; 11-15-2005, 08:42 AM.CAЯL HIRD-RUTTEЯ"proud member of the best scroll sawing forum on the net."Ryobi SC180VS scroll saw EX21

Nice
Rivari-
That Egale look very nice, indeed. I've been scrolling about a year myself and haven't tryed that bevel cut yet. When I do try I hope it will come out half as good.
Ya got 'er done.

Howdy all I'm here online...err..for the moment.
Actually the leaf is not beveled at all. It was a straight cut which I took alot of time on to ensure I had a nice tight fit. For the areas that were a tad to tight I used a bit of sandpaper to get the fit needed.
Thanks for the compliment on that piece.

That is exactly what I did Capt., now you can see just how easy it was to do. Though in retrospect beveling would offer a nicer fit. Further if it were beveled one might be able to add a bit of copper to the inside to accent the whole piece.
I really need my saw folks, only 15 more months to go.Todd

by jim_mexThanks for that idea Scott. I don't know much about how to set up such an option up but I'm pretty sure that I can investigate and find out.
Too true Rolf! I don't know if Miguel has changed the working methods of his team but one thing that impressed when I visited several...-
