Please only use battery operated tea light for safety.
This pattern book has eight different designs for the tea light stand pictured. If you just have a few minutes to get out in the shop then this pattern might be just the ticket. If you follow my designs you know that I tend to do easy patterns. There is a good reason for that. I have the attention span of a 3 month old puppy.
I used to design and build furniture in my shop. It would sometimes take weeks to finish a project. I almost quite woodworking because I could not stay focused on a project that long. I migrated to spending most of my time on the scroll saw because I could design a pattern and often finish the project that same night. That bias still comes out in most everything I do. I love to see those large cathedral clocks and read about how they took months to cut but that's just not my cup of tea.
The video below is another Gwinnett Woodworkers Association Scroll Saw Sig meeting. In this demonstration Hans shows basket making techniques on the scroll saw. Hans shows a few different types of baskets and how easy they are to make. I believe most of the patterns in the video are mine so if you are interested you can find them in my catalog. As always Hans does a fantastic job. The video is long so get a cup of coffee and enjoy.
