Hey luv2learn!
You sure have a great system going on I must say! Do you ever sit down!!! Your like the Energizer Bunny!
I love how you make things happen!

Hey woodshaver,

I am not a great woodworker just a curious one. When I make a tool like this I want to know its limits, or rather the limits of my imagination for using it. I will turn 70 this year but I have at least a hundred times as many ideas and or projects I would like to do yet. So, they can sit me down when I am dead but until then I will continue to enjoy life, have fun in my shop (every day), and make sawdust :) By the way, I like making things happen it’s a lot of fun!! Oh, I usually take a nap around 4:00 in the afternoon just to regenerate :)

Hey guys, I just sent this plaque to my 93 year old mother who still mows her own yard, rakes her own leaves, and can work circles around most folks half her age. Go mom!!

Very clever.

I’m a bit mixed up…you say you cut a smaller piece out on your scroll saw, then carved the design on a piece of 3/4” of cedar and free hand cut the sign out line on your scroll saw. Did you use the Pantograph and care the design in the Cedar or just cut the larger design with the scroll saw? I did not see a picture of a design carved into wood on cut out and I was wondering. I like what you have done here.

When I went back and looked at your pictures again I see the carved design…sorry. Could you also carve the sign large like the one you scrolled?

Thats really nice scroll work and a great gift for one tough Mom

-- Martin ....always count the number of fingers you have before, and after using the saw.

Nanny, Gracias por sus amables palabras.

Thanks Martyroc.

Hawaiilad,
Yes it is possible to carve the design in full scale but that takes another tool called a router duplicator. I have been researching these tools and trying to develop a plan in my mind on how to make one. Stay tuned my friend
