This T. Rex is 10.25 inches tall. I cut this guy from 1/2" Red Oak. I seldom use Red Oak. It's not one of my favorite woods to use. The grain is so open that the blade has a tendency to the grain. If you cut Red Oak make sure you keep the blade nice and sharp. The sharper it is the less likely you will be to have trouble.
The original graphic was from vectorportal.com. I modified it quite a bit so it could be cut on the scroll saw.

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.
