Single Board Basket Scroll Saw Pattern.

Single board baskets are fun to make. They are very efficient for the amount of wood you need. This basket can be cut from an 8" X 8" X 1/4" board. You will need a small drill bit to drill the interior holes. The biggest bit I would use is a 1/16" drill bit. Anything larger and the hole will show up and be too obvious. I show on the pattern where you can drill the interior holes. Basically, you just want to drill the holes and the point of two lines.


Personalized Christmas Ornament Patterns are ready to order:

I am ready to start taking Personalized Christmas Ornament Pattern orders.

I can do first or last names but remember that more than ten letters will be more difficult to cut.

The order form will take up to 20 names for people and 5 names for pets. If you need more than 20/5 then start a second order.

You will not pay until you have the patterns and are 100% happy with them. There will be an invoice sent with the patterns to your email. You will have the option to pay securely with a credit card or send a check to the included address.

I am shooting for a three-day turnaround but that may be difficult for a few days until I get all the kinks worked out. I'll do my best. You can set a bookmark for each of the order forms but I will post them almost every day until Christmas.

$1 per/name with a 5 name minimum.

$2 per/name no minimum. 



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

This mini CNC machine has been receiving good reviews. The table is 10" X 6" with 1 1 1/4" cut depth. It comes with an offline controller and a z-axis probe.  Watch the video for more information. This is not my video but the guys does an excellent job sharing the information.

  • Class leading value got even easier to use.
  • The 3018-PROVer is the latest version of the 3018 Desktop CNC DIY Kit Series. Now Pre-assembled and no fuss with assembly taking less than 30 minutes out of the box.
  • Still based on open-source Grbl v1.1 the PROVer has stepped up to more powerful but silent Toshiba TB6S109 drivers with added life and performance along with added Optocouplers to protect your mainboard from hard stops without risk of damage and eliminate signal noise for more consistent projects and longevity.
  • Make more with the all-aluminum body and take advantage of the added stability for milling a wider range of materials while also making clean up even easier with acrylic safety baffles to help contain dust and provide a safety barrier.
  • Take control of your 3018-PROVer Desktop CNC machine with controls at your fingertips. The 1.8” display will clearly display readouts and provide manual control of your mill without any computer. If a project gets out of hand the PROVer has an emergency stop control that is very visible and easy to access for immediate shutdown of your machine.

Fancy Initial Plaques Scroll Saw Pattern.

Download the Pattern Below



These initial plaque patterns are a little over ten inches wide and tall. 

One alternative material to cut these from would be Corian. Corian is not easy to find in small quantities. Some folks ask for scraps from kitchen counter installers. You can also find Corian on eBay from time to time. You also need to use the correct blade to cut Corian. A skip tooth blade has worked best for me. I prefer to cut 1/4 thick Corian. That would work well for this project.
 
Simulated Corian
 

You could also use gold leaf or metallic spray paint to add color.

Pegas 21" Scroll Saw


Pegas Scroll Saw - 21 Inch with Raising Arm and the Pegas Blade Clamps

21″ Throat Depth, Upper Arm Raises, Proven Motor and Linkage.  PLUS the game-changing Pegas Chuck Head that has helped so many saws improve.

Pegas®​ Scroll Saws are high-precision tools, which with a minimum amount of maintenance, will provide reliable service and great satisfaction for many years. This scroll saw is developed in Switzerland - made in Taiwan to the rigorous specifications and quality requirements of Pegas.  

This product will ship within three business days, please note we are not open on holidays or weekends.



The Pegas Scroll Saw - Why is it better?

While it’s made in the same factory in Taiwan where the Excalibur scroll saw used to be made, Pegas has added Swiss precision and engineering to their scroll saw. Let’s start with a beefed-up chassis featuring a reinforced web in the connecting rod and vertical rocker and needle bearings pressed into the rocker arm as opposed to a sleeve and bolt connection that is prone to wear and failure. Next, the saw comes with the revolutionary Pegas Blade Chuck Heads installed (a $90 value). These precision-machined blade clamps, manufactured from aircraft-grade aluminum, can be adjusted easily to grip blades better than any other clamp on the market, and weigh less to reduce wear on your machine. Finally, the table boasts a thick, scratch-resistant coating that prevents corrosion and makes the wood slide easier. The saw still boasts the precision rack-and-pinion system that tilts the saw head to make angled cuts (instead of tilting the table). It tilts a full 45-degrees to the right, and 35-degrees to the left (because of the dust collection port). It also positions all of the primary controls (speed, power, and blade tension) at the front of the top saw arm. A stand and footswitch are available.
