turkeyman request. - Scroll Saw Woodworking & Crafts Message Board

clayton717 · 09-10-2010, 11:28 PM

Back in July Turkeyman(Ed) posted a picture to have made into a scrollsaw pattern. He also asked if someone would be will to try it as an intarsia project. I took the challenge. I reworked the original picture he posted a bit and came up with a pattern. Well I had finally got caught up and finished the turkey. I sent it off to Ed earlier this week, and it arrived today. I got a call from Ed telling me he loved it and so did his wife. He may want another one made in the future but bigger. Ed asked me to post a picture of it.
The final piece was roughly 12 x 10. It had 65 pieces, and 8 different species of wood. Which are aspen, aromatic cedar, cherry, poplar, paduak, walnut, wenge, and yellowheart. So here it is.

Hi Clayton - that is one amusing design and you've really done it proud. I like it!

Nothing like a gobbler with a tude! Attitude that is...Great job!

I DO LOVE IT !
Clayton did a bang up job. The picture does not do it justice. I had to call him to personally thank him, no way would an email suffice for the appreciation I have for his work.
And yes, I will need another one, even bigger. The wife stole this one for her office.

The man who originally designed this "Turkeyman" had no idea I would go this far with it. He thought it was all a joke. Although he loves it and uses it in his portfolio for other customers to see.

Again, thank you so much Clayton
