  • Tried Something Different

    I thought I'd try something different, this is from the Ulitmate Scrolling Patterns Collection. It is a layer scape pattern by Lora Irish on page 15.

    Before I could get a real decent pic of it my battery died so for now here is the best I can do.

    The back layer is cut from 1/4 cherry ply, and the front layer is 1/8 BB ply, with a pecan and walnut stain. Hey, I told ya I tried something different....

        Great job on that Bill. Lora's one of my favorite designers. I've adapted several of her wonderful patterns to different projects. I've yet to try a layered piece but I really like the way they look.

              Hi Bill, I really like that. I love the choice of woods, and the photos not bad either.
              Thanks for sharing

                Looks great to me! Question though, does one normally stack the layers or put spacers between them or is this mostly a "which ever way you like it" type of question?

                Cheers,

                  Nice work Bill,

                  I like the colors.
                  They seem to have come out pretty good.

                  Regards,

                      Outstanding job, sir hillbilly!!!! You are officially on my "HERO" list.

                      I also like her patterns. There are MANY, MANY wildlife patterns out there, but Lora Irish is one of the very few who actually get them to look like the animals really look! Just my HO.

                        Thanks again everyone! I really did enjoy doing it, I'm going to do more in the near future. This one actually was given as a Birthday present last night, and it was well recieved. I don't even think the stain was dry yet!

                        Draken, this piece was stacked directly on top of each other, there are some that use spacers, but I think for the most part it is up to you and how much depth you want to achieve.

                          I don't remember which one I used but I think it was somewhere around #12 which is .029 diameter. Anything between 12 and 19 will work you would just adjust your slot width. There is a pattern for bending it to shape do you have that?

                          by Eugene Downes
                          Over the years I've found that cutting old wooden plates can be very rewarding. Most of them are very good wood and when you finish your cut out the plate already has a nice finish on it.. I normally buy mine at yard sales or Good Will whenever I can find them....

                          I've found in the past that you can find some very nice wood from old wooden plates. When you finish your cut out the wood already has a nice finish. I am only adding a picture of 6 but I have done many of these....
