3D Lizard Scroll Saw Pattern.


 
Click to Enlarge
 Download the Pattern Below

I have designed scroll saw patterns almost every day for the last 14 years. I normally sit down around midnight and start trying to decide what the subject of the pattern will be. Sometimes it will have a theme such as a holiday and sometimes it is just totally random. 

Today's pattern is just totally random. I had the clipart in the image below and wanted to see what I could do with it. I played around with a few designs and then settled on making a simple 3D version of the pattern. 

When I am designing a random pattern like this lizard I'm not thinking "Who will want to cut this?", "Will anyone have a use for this pattern?". I am just having fun designing the pattern to see what I can make happen. That is the trick to not getting burned out when you do something as long and as often as I have been designing patterns.

If no one cuts this pattern I still had fun making it. Sometimes I make a strange, random pattern and it gets a huge number of downloads. Sometimes not so many. I can rarely guess which patterns will get big numbers.

So the moral of this story is that I sometimes make strange patterns. If it is not your cup of tea then there is good news. I will make another pattern tomorrow.  :)

DEWALT Scroll Saw, Variable-Speed, 1.3 Amp, 20-Inch (DW788)


Amazon's price is down a couple of dollars today for the DeWalt. $538.99. That is not much of a drop in price but in today's market, any drop in price is nice to see. Everything seems to be going the opposite direction.


About this item

  • Double parallel link arm design dramatically reduces vibration and noise for extremely accurate cuts
  • Exclusive tool free blade clamps allow blade changes in seconds. Depth of Cut (inches): 2 inch
  • On off switch, electronic variable speed, flexible dust blower, and blade tensioning lever all located on front upper arm
  • Arm design pivots from back of the saw to front, shortening the arm movement for smoother, quieter operation
  • Arm lifts so blade can be easily threaded through the material for inside cuts

Movie Time Sign Scroll Saw Pattern.


 
Click to Enlarge
 Download the Pattern Below
Add a custom Family Name Sign(Not Included)

Movie night has become more popular with all the chaos in the last couple of years. Many families have set up rooms just to watch movies. Large screen televisions and inexpensive projectors have made the experience even more theatre-like.

This pattern is three layers thick. Each layer is 1/4" thick. You can add a family name sign to customize the project. The sign is 10" X 8"

I just purchased an HD Projector from Walmart. It was only $240 so I really did not expect too much. I was wrong. In a semi-dark room, the picture is very good. The colors are saturated and the contrast is decent but not great. I installed it in my basement and have a 10-foot screen for movies and sports. I have a walk-out basement with big windows. I installed blackout curtains so I could watch during the day. I am already thinking about upgrading because I like it so much. I'm pretty cheap so I will probably make do. I will get a screen to make the image better. I am projecting on the wall right now.

This is not an affiliate link. I bought the Vankyo V630W. It is a native 1080P projector. This is important because some ads say 1080P compatible. These are lower resolution projects but will play 1080P just at a reduced resolution. In my research, I found that trusting the specs in the ad is questionable. Read online reviews. YouTube has tons of projector reviews. 

Here is a link to what is available on Amazon. This is an affiliate link. They range from under $100 to well over $1000. I would not get under the $250 mark if you plan to watch HD content. 

I paired an Amazon  Fire TV Stick with my projector. Between cable tv and the fire stick there is tons of content available.

Not bad for $240

Layered Nature Scene Scroll Saw Pattern.


Click to Enlarge
 Download the Pattern Below
Test cut with my laser

There are two versions of this pattern included. There is the four-layer version above and the flat version shown below.

I designed this pattern for a friend who cuts my patterns with a laser. The cut in the layer version was cut with my laser. The pattern works equally well with the scroll saw or the laser. 

The layered version of the pattern comes in two sizes. The large pattern is eight inches in diameter and the small pattern is six inches in diameter. The six-inch version will take some care if you cut it on the scroll saw. The antlers get pretty small. 

The flat version of the pattern has some tricky veining cuts. If you have trouble cutting the veins with a flat blade then give a small spiral blade a try. The flat version is eight-inch diameter only.





 

INFORMATION:

 
Here is a question I get all the time. "Can I sell the projects I make from your patterns?"

I have two plans for you. 

1. You can sell as many projects made from my patterns as you like. No attribution or fees. 

2. You can sell as many projects made from my patterns as you like. You pay me 1% of all revenue that you achieve over $1million dollars. I like this plan the best but so far it has not worked out too well. I truly hope you are the first to reach the $1million goal.

Seriously, please sell as many projects as you can if that is something you like to do. It is fun to make the projects but it is also exciting when someone wants one enough to give you cash.

Many scrollers take orders every year for personalized Christmas ornament patterns. Personalized items are always good sellers. The personalized ornaments can sell from $5 to $20 each. I only charge a dollar for the pattern so there is money to be made. 

Go through my free online catalog. If you need a theme pattern, try searching those words and see if you can find a product that will sell in your area. If horses are big in your area then do a search for horses. Here is a link to the catalog. https://www.stevedgood.com/catalog/

Making crafts for family and friends is what most of us do but don't rule out selling your work. I won't tell you that selling crafts is easy but it can be fun.
