Merry Christmas Wreath Scroll Saw Pattern.


Christmas Wreath. This wreath is not too large. It's only 10.6" X 10.6". 

I want to remind you that you can print most of my pattern to any size you need. You have to be using Adobe Acrobat as your default PDF viewer. When you select print you will see the print dialog. Not the three red arrows in the image below. Poster, Tile Scale, and Page. 

Click Poster. Set the scale percentage. Use the Page scroll bar to select the page you wish to poster print. 

One strange bug is that once you type in the Tile Scale it does not update until you click into another box. 

When I export the pattern to the PDF I make sure it stays in vector format. Because I do this the enlarged pattern will maintain it's quality. It will not get jagged like a bitmap graphic does.  

Some patterns are not suitable for enlargement. A pattern that has slots and tabs that require a specified thickness of wood will not work without modification.

Let's Talk Shop with Russ live video featuring Bob Brokaw:


If you own a DeWalt DW788 scroll saw you may want to set aside some time Saturday night to watch the Let's Talk Shop with Russ show. Russ's guest for the show this week is Bob Brokaw. Bob is a member of the Gwinnett Woodworkers Association and more importantly, a master repair technician specializing in the DeWalt scroll saw.

Bob probably has more time servicing the DeWalt saw than anyone in the country. If you have questions this might be your opportunity to get answers. There is a chat section with the video. They will monitor the chat and try to answer any questions they can.

The show begins Saturday 10/20/2018 at 8pm EST. The shows usually run over an hour so you should have time to get your question seen.

Think Safety

Remember to keep the safety of yourself and others in your work shop in your thoughts at all times. Always wear eye and ear protection. Follow all the manufactures warnings that came with your power tools. If I demonstrate something on this web site that you don't feel is safe, don't do it. Your safety is your responsibility. Fingers are handy things, try to keep all of them.
