Perfume Tray Scroll Saw Pattern.

This perfume tray is 10" long and 8" deep. Maybe this will make a nice Valentine's Day gift. I used 1/4" Baltic birch plywood for this prototype test. This is one of those projects that would probably be better cut from a nice hardwood. 

I cut a piece of 1/8" clear acrylic to put in the bottom. The tray will still work for most perfume bottles without the acrylic but I think it looks better with it. I know it's difficult to see in the pictures but it makes a difference when seen in person.
 

If you do not like the feet on the tray just don't cut them or the holes they fit into. I went back and forth in my mind if I like them or not. I kept them pretty basic. If I did not run out of time I might have made them a little fancier. I'll let you decide.


Cut the acrylic insert to fit after you build the tray.

Pegas 21" Scroll Saw



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

Shipping in late February 2021

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.



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 make 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 foot switch are available.
