First Christmas gift finished music box

08-31-2011, 06:04 PM

Just finished this music box. Made out of mahogany and poplar. The white flicks are part of the mahogany grain. It is going to be a Christmas gift for my granddaughter. She is seven and loves butterflies. The pattern is one of Sue Mey's. Thanks to all that sent me in the right direction for the music movement.

Experience is something you don't get until just after you need it.

Sorry if this is the wrong placefor this post. I just tried to look at The Scrollsaw Artist site and I got a message that the site may be corrupted and I should not attempt to enter it. Has anyone else had this experience? Thanks for any help.

A quick Google search for fretwork book stands showed pattern on Pinterest. Might be worth a look.
