Unhappy Disappointed the cover picture not included as a project

I wanted to say that although I really enjoy the magazine, I was really excited and then disappointed once I found out that the cover project was not included.

I realize the artist makes his living in woodworking, but to tantalize and then not be able to make one....

Thanks for listening..

John

I am a big fan of Paul Meisel's work and have a couple of his books, so I was tickled to see the squirrel tricycle. I am making it as a gift for a little girl who loves to watch the squirrels and birds in her back yard. The project is almost complete.

Hi John...

If you use the techniques that Randy explained, you should still be able to make that puzzle! Trust yourself! You can do it!!!!!

I've just received mine and there is a nice variety of projects for all skill levels - from the Toucan segmentation to the Windmill clock.

I especially enjoyed Bob's article on Black Cherry and Bill Thurlow's article on Preserving documents in wood.

Another great issue!

Just noticed that one of the documents in wood is Shannon's marriage certificate (I've been looking too hard for the fox!!!)

LOL - Yes Neal - I would say you are looking too hard for that fox. Bill Thurlow did an awesome job on the marriage certificate - it's been sitting here for almost a year while we convinced him that he could write a technique article. Bob really helped him pull his thoughts together and I hope we've inspired lots of folks to make their own wooden documents!

I am intrigued by the "Preserving documents in wood" article. It seems the purpose of the article is to show how to place the cut text on the backer board.

I'd like to know the following before I have to be concerned with placement of the text:
1: How does Mr. Thurlow make a pattern for the text?
2: I can visualize words in the Gettysburg address because it is in script - letters tied together. How does he handle individual letters and punctuation as shown in the marriage certificate example. His work is truly amazing, particularly when he cuts everything in 1/2 thick birch.

I don't think Mr. Thurlo uses a pattern as such. I believe he uses an enlarged copy of the document itself and works from that as the "pattern". I saw the original of one of his bigger works up in East Petersburg, PA. during the Fox Chapel open house (we stayed at the same hotel) and was fortunate enough to meet him there. He's a really nice fellow and his work is truly impressive!!!
