thanks scrimper, sometimes i do wish i kept it ,but i was happy too donate it,always can be made another time.

looks great gill, charles dearing does great patterns.

i find if i put up a piece of work for sale like this one,unless people do craftwork,or scrolling,they will not understand the amount of work that goes into the piece,people only see it as a piece of wood,where scrollers understand the time that was spent creating it,.........my opinion anyway

well too be honest it didnt realy make much,infact offers were so low i took it out of the auction,and donated it too the hospital anyway,they said if they could reach a better price they would sell,if not they would keep it and display it in the hospital.

yes,i use a hegner multicut2,which is fitted with the quick clamp. i do a lot of internal cuts on my projects ,so the quick clamp is a must.

done this piece a while back,and put it up for a charity auction,where the proceeds went too a local hospital. pattern by dirk boleman the frame is mahogany ,and the main plaque is ply and beach overlays ,

the bank of drawers is very impressive.

i find spirals so easy too control,infact i use them more often than a normal blade, maybe a little more clean up after,but i still prefer them,especiely for potrait work anyway .

cut it from 3mm ply,used a no.3 spiral, done a stack cut ,cutting 2 pieces at once,done red lips on the second piece,but prefer the black one show here,

a cutting i did recently,measure approx 24 x 24 inchs, steve good pattern

nice worj there bobman

in the lordw prayer,the main panel is made up of 3 pieces,where the joints are covered by the overlays,i used a 18 inch fretsaw when i cut mine originaly

i buy my blades online from mikes workshop,aka flying dutchman blades,i use a lot of spirals blades and his are great, google the name and he should be easy too find

scrimper,if you could scan parts for me ,that would be great,i have the pattern for the main plaque,i am missing the frame,and all the overlays,includinng the wording overlays that hide the joint in the plaque.....fingers crossed.

i know the one,the person who cut it used the picture of my one and developed the drawing from it,,looks good but not what im looking for .
