Wife's Christmas:: - Scroll Saw Woodworking & Crafts Message Board

ubgoofy2003 · 12-27-2009, 03:58 PM

This is what I made for my wife this Christmas. The Double Layered Cross is 1/4 in. Oak with Baltic Birch on top & the Anniversary rings are white plexiglass on heart shaped Cherry. The plexiglass is very durable & doesn't break easy like wood sometimes can. It surprised me and enjoyed working with it. I also made ornament's with red & green plexiglass. I am very lucky to have a supply available. Happy Holiday's to you all. -- Perk

Maxine, you won't believe me when I tell you that I used a #2/0 New Spiral on the Plexiglas. I did use a #3 Silver Reverse on the straight lines though( that's Flying Dutchman Blades). I have found that I can cut just about anything with the # 2/0 New Spiral. I love it. Thank you all for the kind comments. P.S. I never had any trouble with it melting either ! -- Perk
