Flowers for my Cider Vase - Scroll Saw Woodworking & Crafts Message Board

Band Saw Box · 07-10-2009, 02:41 AM

Hello Everyone
Well I have one flower done, it took a few test cuts to get this Daisie to look ok. Glueing the petals together was made easy the Diana the lady who made the plans. She told me about Aleene's Fast Grab Tacky Glue it reall works great I only had to hold the part together for about 60 sections and then let it dry. I used popular for the petals and pinr for the leafs the stems. I used kids paints mixed with water to color the flower. IT was fun to cut and put together, but you ahve to take your time when you cut. I have to make 2 or 3 more I think. As always any and all comments are welcome.

Nice job and thanks for the tips. Looking forward to the completed project....

A very nice job Dan. I was wondering if you potted them in sawdust? Seriously though an excellent project that once again demonstrates the versatility of the scroll saw and scrollsawers. Thank goodness we have products like fast tack glue but gluing 60 sections together by holding requires more patience than I have.

Thanks for nice nice comments, Planting them is saw dust is a good idea, I've been wondeing what I could put in the vase to mke the flowers stay in place and I think saw dust just might work and I have a dust collector full of it. Your right Dale I did get them from that web site.
