I have been scrolling for about 3 months now. I have mainly been cutting out names and some small stuff. This is my first attempt at making something like this. This is the pattern that was in the magazine. My wife seen it and wanted me to cut it out of oak or hickory but I used a pine board for my first try. 3 of the letters have been stained. I am very slow at this but I am learning. Thanks to all the tips here has got me a long ways. I know it is not perfect but my first attempt. It took about 2 to 2 1/2 hours to cut. Should it take take that long?

Very nice. I am still very new to scolling, so I am seeing something new virtualy every day, who'd have thought you could make a recognisable Palmino(is it?) from a word.

Thanks, It just seems like it takes me a long time to cut things out. But I run my saw pertty slow and take my time. If I run the saw to fast I have a hard time staying on the lines. Sunlion my wife has a quarter horse that is a paint. He is brown and white. Close to a Palmino.

very nicely done for your first puzzle...i cut at what speed feels comfortable for me, sometimes slow, sometimes fast depending on what i'm cutting and how intricate it is ...who cares how long it takes....it's hand crafted and thats whats important.

by JimernRolf, I had that happen once, the second time it happened I bought a magnetic sheet from amazon, the sheet is super slippery. I did not think it would stick to my Ex so I was going to use double sided tape, but it did stock magnetically just fine....

Aw man Rolf....that bites! But knowing you, the 'repaired' design will look fantastic and maybe even like an artistic creation.
