  • Christmas gift for wife



    I cut this for my wife for Christmas, she loves morning glories and hummers. The pattern is by Mike Williams. Found it in the Sept. 2006 issue of Creative Woodworks & Crafts. Cut from 1/4" BB plywood, 1/8" luan backer and oak frame. Finished with Formby's tung oil, 11' X 14".

    I also have that pattern, but it looks so much better when it's cut into wood. Great job Mick!

          Mick, I gotta admit, your response was better than any joke I've heard in a long time. I don't normally laugh out loud, but I just couldn't help myself this time.

            Yesterday was amazing to see someone ring the bell after beating cancer. When we left we walked to our cars and had our arms around each others shoulders. I told her this was the best party I have ever been to. I found this message on my phone this morning “I am such a blessed woman. I was so excited....

            I don't remember which one I used but I think it was somewhere around #12 which is .029 diameter. Anything between 12 and 19 will work you would just adjust your slot width. There is a pattern for bending it to shape do you have that?

            Over the years I've found that cutting old wooden plates can be very rewarding. Most of them are very good wood and when you finish your cut out the plate already has a nice finish on it.. I normally buy mine at yard sales or Good Will whenever I can find them....

            I've found in the past that you can find some very nice wood from old wooden plates. When you finish your cut out the wood already has a nice finish. I am only adding a picture of 6 but I have done many of these....
