Haven't been messing around with the scrollsaw much lately because the one I've got isn't working right and not enjoyable to use. Well, thanks to Woodguy, I have a new saw to play around with. Thanks, WG, that was really nice of you to give me your old saw, and it work so much better than the POS I have. So with all new tools, one has to try them out as soon as they are set up. Here is a little thing I did this afternoon. I plan on sending it out with the stool I made for my niece, so she'll get it for her birthday. It's some curly maple scrap and some of the cherry I got from member D.Joyce. I threw a little Danish oil on it (still weeping out some) and will finish it off with Deft spray lacquer. Thanks for looking, Dave:)

Wow- that's cool! How did you pattern the letters - using the carbon paper technique you described for the stool?

This makes me want to open up my scrollsaw! ;-) One thing at a time, though...

This time I saved a step, I spray adhesived the computer print-out to the wood. Just make sure you let the spray dry, or you will be sanding paper off ,BTDT. Thanks for the compliments. Dave:)

Hey... Amelia is a lucky person.. That's 2 projects in a row. I like this. What was the level of effort for sawing these out? I may have just found Christmas presents for the little ones in my family... And finally a perfect excuse for me getting a scroll saw!

Well, both her (Amelia) and my daughter(Ava) were born within a month of X-mas so they get many presents all at once. Ava already has one that I made her last year. Cutting out the lettering wasn't too hard, remove the inside cuts first. I had a break while cutting out the inside cuts afterwards, got to love CA glue. Very easy project, the sanding took the longest time, second was cleaning up the cherry board. Dave:)
