Trying to catch up - Scroll Saw Woodworking & Crafts Message Board

oily · 11-18-2011, 09:19 PM

Just a drop in the bucket I'm trying to get ready for a Dec show including work for others.
I came across a table and chair set I made when I first started to do scroll work.
I'll clean it up and try and get rid of it at the show. Got a ton of work to do and all the promised help is having trouble showing up. They're all here, they just forgot about the help part.

All great stuff Rob....

I don't know where you're going to find a can of Pledge that small though...<snicker>

Aha, Jolly Rancher...Now we know where you're getting the energy to put out all of this product...

Great painting job on the Santa head Rob. I see you did the same as I did on the tree ornaments...when it came to cutting out that little snow flake near the top of the tree, it just didn't work well. I cut a couple dozen more of them and did try cutting any of it out...the first four ended up with a round hole like yours....or perhaps that is a different pattern

LOL My pattern lifted and I cut off the last arm of the flake. I've got more stacked up I'll get the little **** tomorrow. I was thinking of wood balls as a moon in these.

Hey Rob,
Just had a thought, (yea, it does happen sometimes). How about some of those little round jingle bells in the trees......

Your painting by the way is excellent...

....Rob, My wife fell in love with the table and chairs...got a pattern ? or was it one of those "pop up ideas"..where you just start playin and come up with something really neat?

Good idea. I think I have some in the shop. If not I can steal them from the wife and blame it on the cats.

The chair is an ol Steve Good pattern and the table is a combination of a couple of Steve's for a flower stand and something else. .............. I think LOL.
I cut those with my old Harbor Freight pin blade. All are 3/8" BB. If I make another set I won't use such good stuff. I'll look and see if I still have the patterns I made for it but don't count on it.
