kokopeli

[stephenD]

A lady I work with asked if I could make her a kokopeli with my scroll saw.

I made these two. My wife likes the larger one with the prickly pear cactus so friend Carol gets the other.

I found the image on google and made the patterns from that. I cut them from 1/2" oak.

Interesting, and great job.

Nice job. I make an inlay image of Kokopeli on cedar boxes that I make. It is a popular pattern here in West Texas.

Very nice! Thanks for sharing.
I hope I don't offend you but, perhaps you could add a decorative routed
edge to the outside portion such as a Cove bit or a Roman Ogee bit just for
more asthetic appeal.
They look fine as they are but, just my opinion on something to add another
dimensionl.
God Bless! Spirithorse

Thank you for the suggestion, but I don't have a router yet. Perhaps someday. I have been pondering getting one with a table for projects like you recommend.
