Patriotic Workshop Sign Scroll Saw Pattern.



This patriotic saw blade workshop sign is 8" X 10".  Let visitors to your workshop know that you honor the flag of the United States of America.

You can skip the backer board and just cut the saw blade flag for a nice gift for woodworking friends. Another option is to edit the text on the backer board to customize it with the name of the woodworker.  

2019 Simply Wooden Creations Whirligig Wars Contest:

The second date in the graphic should say 2019.

It's time for the 2019 Whirligig Wars Contest. Russ, over at Simply Wooden Creations, is once again hosting the event. Last year was a great success and I expect no less this year.

He is working on sponsors for the prizes. The Scrollsaw Workshop is one sponsor with a $100 gift card. There are already other sponsors and I expect Russ will round up more.

Whirligigs are great fun to make and you might just come away with a prize for your work. 


Here are a couple of helpful links I posted last year.


You can find several whirligig pattern books on Amazon. You may also be able to find them in your local library or book store.

This is a great summer project. When you finish the whirligig you can show it off to all the neighbors in your back yard. 


Don't let the video entry keep you from entering the contest. If you have an iPhone or Android smartphone you can use the YouTube app to record and upload from your phone. It really is easy. 

$12 per sheet of 12 coins plus $3.50 shipping
Inlay with a 1" Forstner Bit.
The perfect way to sign your work.
