I hope all of you that participate in Halloween celebrations have a fun and safe night. My 21 year old daughter went out as a bumble bee to a costume party tonight. I reminded her no drinking and driving and she told me not to worry if she had anything to drink she would fly home. Life was so much easier when she was 6 years old.This pattern is a decorative mantle mantle clock. It's actually a little small for a mantle clock but you can place it on a desk or a shelf and it should look fine. The source for the clock insert in included in the pattern. I use 3/4 inch thick wood for the clock and 1/2 inch thick for the base.
I know many of you are waiting for your custom Name Ornaments. I apologize for the delay. There was a technical problem (with my brain) and I temporally lost some of the orders. I have them all now and I promise I will start getting caught up quickly.
The Scrollsaw Workshop Blog has had nearly 100,000 pattern downloads for the month of October as of today. That's a goal I have had for a while now. I might make the 100,000 by the end of the day if today's pattern is well received. I know this is probably a who cares to most but for me it means the blog is growing. The total pattern download is heading for 3 million. When I started this a little over three years ago I was thrilled if a pattern got 30 or 40 downloads. Thank you all for helping me get the word out about the blog.
