With Valentines Day just around the corner, we are allowed to be a little over the top with the romance. I'm going to call this project a sculpture. In the picture above I have the circle sitting on three stands. You can display it any way you like, '
The circle of love is cut from 3/4" thick mahogany. The cut-out letters seem to stand out better on darker wood.
The ring needs to be rounded over after it is cit out. I used a small round-over bit in my router table. If you do not have a router table then hand sanding will get the job done.

USB Pattern Catalog Update: Temporarily stop order taking until I get caught up.
I did not expect the demand for the USB version of the pattern catalog to be so high. Thanks for all the orders. I am working hard to get the orders filled. It takes me about 20 minutes to copy all the files to the drive so it is taking a while to get the orders ready to ship.
Please be patient with me. I will send an invoice when your order is ready to ship. I am probably four or five days out on completing current orders.
I am temporarily stoping order taking until I get caught up. I will let you knwo when the order form is back up.
Pegas SC-21CE Arrives at the Scrollsaw Workshop:
Full video review coming soon.
The Pegas SC-21CE review unit showed up at my front door this morning. I know many of you are curious about this new saw that will start shipping to the U.S. in a few weeks. I will get working on the review ASAP and try to get my first impressions out this weekend.
It's nice to have choices. Right now we have several very good choices when it comes to scroll saws sold here in the U.S. The Pegas SC-21CE just adds to the lineup
If looks count then I think we have another winner because I love the color scheme of the Pegas SC-21CE
2007-2018 Scrollsaw Workshop Catalog DVD Now Available. $20
$20 plus shipping
For those of you who have been waiting for the update, it is now available to order.
For those of you who are new here are the details.
Every year in January I compile all the scroll saw patterns that I have designed and put them on a DVD. The DVD includes every pattern from 2007-present. Currently, that is over 2,600 patterns.
Why should you buy the DVD? These are the same patterns that are in my free online catalog. You do not have to buy the DVD to have access to the patterns.
The DVD is produced because so many people asked for it. People want to have the patterns available locally. In some cases, they want the patterns for their club library. Others like the ease of searching the patterns on their local computer. Many people buy the DVD just to support what I do.
The #1 reason I have been told that the DVD catalog is needed is that they fear I will go offline and all the pattern will be gone forever.
Whatever your reason I truly appreciate you purchasing the DVD. The sales from this product go a long way to support what I do here on the blog.
$12 per sheet of 12 coins plus $3.50 shipping
Inlay with a 1" Forstner Bit.
The perfect way to sign your work.
Email Newsletter Readers: Remember that the Newsletter is just a copy of the daily blog post. To see the post in it's proper formatting click this link. If you ever misplace a pattern or any item you see here you can always find it on the blog. Everything stays on the blog forever.
