This is a pattern from Sue Mey . I put a picket fence up and made an arch .
There is a hydro pole and meter framed in the arch and fence so I thought I would clean it up using this pattern .
I used this pattern because there are lots of Eagles in the area . There is also a Heron nesting area not far from where I live . I noticed in an earlier post that an eagle had returned to a site and the folks were pretty happy about their return . I was going to mention that Eagles will prey on other animals ,fish, birds and pets . One nest which was examined and found lots of pet collars and bones . Keep an eye on your pets .
I enlarged the pattern to 24" . I was able to cut it on my Dewalt 788 using # 3 scroll reverse blades . I stack cut four 1/8" BB . I did go through over about 8 blades .I used some pine for the outer ring .
I used Danish oil for the BB and used a n oak stain for the ring . I also cut out the feathers but decided to use some Dollar store feathers untill I get around to painting the wooden ones .Sealed the wood with varathane .
It was a fun pattern to cut .Feel free to comment .
