Holiday Letter Opener Scroll Saw Pattern.

In a few weeks it will be time to send Christmas cards. How about a holiday themed letter opener to open the ones you receive. 

This letter opener is cut from maple. It is 1/4" thick. I sharpened the blade on my drum sander but you could do the same with a disc sander or rotary tool. You don't need to get it too sharp. You will make the tip fragile. The tip just needs to slide under the envelope flap. The edges of the blade also don't have to be too sharp.

Tyler always does a great job with his videos. He does not waste time. He gets to the point and gets the project completed. This T Rex is one of my patterns. You can download it at this link.  https://www.stevedgood.com/dinosaur.pdf

This would make a nice Christmas gift for a child who loves dinosaurs.



Thanks for all the kind emails:

I received tons of nice emails from you guys yesterday giving thoughts and prayers for Patty's speedy recovery. I'm sorry that I cannot answer each one but it would take all day. There were that many. I absolutely will read all of them and pass them along to Patty. 

Patty made a bit of progress today. She was out of bed for about an hour in her recliner. She ate a small breakfast so those are good signs.

Order your Personalized Christmas Ornament Patterns:


Personalized Christmas Ornament patterns are $1 each with a five ornament minimum. Each additional name adds an extra $1 to the total. 5 ornaments = $5. 20 ornaments = $20.

After you place the order I will complete the patterns and email them to you with a payment invoice. You have to be completely satisfied before you pay. 

I do not offer blank patterns. This is one of the ways I support what I do. I ask that you please not use the template to create your own custom name patterns.

My goal is to have the orders complete in three days. I will keep you posted if there are delays.
