Aircraft Scroll Saw patterns

[rogerjenkins]

I am trying to find Aviation Scroll Saw Patterns, or designs,- does such a thing exist, or do I set to work and draw up suitable patterns ?
Am seeking all types of Warbirds, plus light ,( trainer ), aircraft, light twins, helicopters, commercial aircraft, etc.

Big question,- If there's a shortage of these type of scroll saw patterns, how many scrollers worldwide would be interested in purchasing these type of patterns, as I can do designwork relatively easy, also have a personal collection of Aviation Publications ??
What would be the best publication format,- Downloadable plan/s or printed hard copy, or both ??

What type of patterns are you talking about? Portraits or Scale Models or .......................

In regards to a publication format I would go with both download and hard copy. It is always nice to be able to download a plan and get to work right away, but if you are going to be doing model aircraft sometimes it is nice to have a hard copy so you can study things when away from the shop or a computer. I know the days of hard copy books are numbered so might as well be ready for the digital era.

Go here to see some aircraft patterns. They are fretwork and portraits types.

Hope it helps.

If you're interested in patterns that would lend themselves easily to intarsia, there are some excellent aviation patterns available as stained glass patterns. They are available through Amazon.com.

Aviation patterns, etc.

A cross between Silhoutte and portrait styles. My proposed Aviation Scroll Saw patterns are heaps more varied than the ones you have shown to me on your Free Patterns section,- actually there's a, " million, & one, " things one can utilized as Scroll Saw patterns, as even have several real old Farm Implement Catalogs here that date back to the early 1920's - 1930's which show all kinds of implements, & stationary motors, old pumps, horse-drawn machinery, - all of which would make excellent Scroll Saw Patterns.
*** Pattern Dimensions,- I always draw mine on A3 size paper, which means each pattern being in two sections to suit the average home computer & A4 printer system.

Have a good day everyone, & thanking you for the helpful comments,

I would like to have some aircraft patterns, specifically to sell the completed projects. I would like certain aircraft that they have in my area though. The f-18 (legacy and super), the P-3, P-8, H-60, H-1, Osprey, E-2C/D. I have seen the patterns on here also. Aircraft in flight is the preference.

Dover Publications has a lot of aviation coloring books that could give you ideas.

Liz Tidwell did business as Carolina Scroll Works about ten years ago. As far as I can tell, she is no longer in the pattern business, but I believe she sold at least some of her materials to one of the big pattern outfits--Wildwood Design, Cherry Tree Toys, The Berry Basket, or one of the others. You might look at their web sites or request a catalogue. Liz did a lot of clocks with aviation themes, and I think she may have done somme portrait-style patterns as well.

Hello

I am looking for a scroll pattern for a P-38 Lightning. Can anyone tell me where I can find this pattern?
