Betty, I also prefer real wood, but I liked the look of the plywood....

[Sandy Oaks]

Thanks Rolf. That is also a great idea.

Thanks Melanie and Marshall. I was actually a very quick project.

Thanks Melanie. I used that size because I could get eight 6" square pieces out of a 12" x 24" piece of plywood.. I didn't try napkins, but I think it should be larger.

I have a friend that has an art studio in Custer State Park every summer. He is going through some health issues and I thought this would be a nice gift. The pattern is by Gary Browning and found in his book "Wild West Scroll Saw Portraits". I used 1/4" Baltic Birch plywood 12"...

I saw this in his email last week and thought I would make one. I enlarged the pattern by 15% to make the basket just under 6" square and 2 1/2" high. The sides are 1/4" Baltic Birch plywood and the top and bottom from Mahogany. I used FD Polar #5 blades as I stack cut 4 pieces. Finished...

Maybe a piece of Strawberry Rhubarb pie.

Another coin cutting guru. Way to go

Seyco has one , but rather expensive.

Denny,

I am in the process of cutting the turtle dream catcher for a co worker. How did you attach the feathers? Did you just run a string thru the feathers?

Thanks for the heads up. Look like this happens almost every day.

[Sandy Oaks]

Not yet. I assume they will let me know if something sells....

[Sandy Oaks]

Thanks Linda. The patterns are by Sue Mey and she was gracious enough to make several special patterns....

[Sandy Oaks]

Jim, I use FD Polar #7 blades. Rather aggressive, but the kerf cleans out nicely....

[Sandy Oaks]

Thanks John. The source is Bard's. ArtCrafters is a wholesaler for Bard's. I bought the Purpleheart from Ocooch Hardwood in the Intarsia section. The 4" x 12" piece was about $4....

[Sandy Oaks]

I also remember articles in CWWC.

[Sandy Oaks]

Thanks Dick. I make these when a glue up of another project is drying....

[Sandy Oaks]

Thanks Jim. I had the same problem until I got the Pegas clamps. Made a world of difference....

[Sandy Oaks]

Thanks Carole. The tree looked bare until I got these cut....

I have been making three each week for four weeks. This is my favorite display for these Miniature Birdhouse Ornaments.
