yet another great masterpiece. You make my postings of finish work look like a babies wooden alphabet block. LOL
Wouldn't worry about straightening the clock, it got the kink out of my neck lookng at. LOL
Nice work Ian, you turn things out like a machine.
If you aren't selling or giving them away you must have stacks of your cuttings.
By the way do you have a job? If you do you must not be getting any sleep. LOL

I wondered why the baseball was getting bigger. Then it hit me!
That pattern would also be killer cut in a piece of bloodwood or redheart......

Gill and Chris - the pattern is a White tails design one - though I got mine through Wooden Teddy Bear.
WTD have another one here that I fancy getting the pattern for - and yes Barry I'd already thought of bloodwood for it .. even if it is a bit pricey ..:-)

Yep, but all that does is increase your profit....

Ian, you've gotten more experience scrolling in the last few months than most people get in years. You are turning out some very excellent work. Either you're retired or you don't need sleep.

This dragon is lovely. I've looked at dragon clocks and will eventually make on for myself. Your work is superb as always.

Thanks Diane - hey did you see the Jeff Zaffino dragon pattern in the latest copy of the "other" magazine? Now that looks like a challenge! Think I'll practise a bit more with spirals before I attempt that one ..
This magazine offered me a free issue and it gave me the incentive to get a 2 year subscription.
The "other" magazine does not have a free issue and therefore I don't know how it is. I cannot find it up where I live. Also the price is double what this one is. I'm sure I am missing out on some nice patterns but I will have to live with it for now.

thanks Carole. I used the band saw with a 1/8" blade - not much different than the scroller but I have to use other methods to do the insides of the letters where the band saw can't reach. All the while, WISHING I had a scroll saw. and now, that I've got one, I'll be venturing back into dimensional...
Very impressive work, John. I like the tooled leather look, the detailed calligraphy, and especially the rendition of the brushes and other tools that you use for your craft. It will be interesting to see how you incorporate the scroll saw into your work, and the opportunities it provides you.
This is the finished project that I sort of "allured" to in my New Member post. The elements were cut out and attached individually in a "layered applique" fashion. Simple hand tools were used to add some "texture" to all of it. This is not wood or leather, it is HDU (High...
Welcome from NC. As a past drone pilot, I'd say take the scroll saw. the drone will become boring after a time where the scroll saw is only limited to the patterns you decide to cut.
