This Race Car pattern is 9" long and cut from seven - 1/4" thick layers. You cannot quite get all seven layers cut from one 12" X 12" X 1/4" thick plywood but two sheets will get it all. The wheels call for 1/2" thick wood but you can use 1/4 also if that is what you have available. Use 1/4" wooden dowels for the axles. There are parts that can be stack cut. Do note that the number 6 is reversed so it comes out correct facing.
The wheels for this pattern are small so ensure the child is of an appropriate age. If you choose to paint the toy make sure you use child-safe paint.
IMPORTANT INFORMATION
I need to catch up on emails and invoices for Signature Coins.
The emails will never get completely caught up but I will get to as many as possible.
I will get all the Signature Coin Invoices sent out by day's end. Sorry for the delay
but I am getting older and slower every day.

I need to admit that the tongue-in-cheek saying on the Mother's Day pattern was not my idea. I saw the words used on a laser pattern and thought they were pretty funny so I used them to design a pattern. The plaque is 7.5" in diameter and has two 1/4" thick layers of wood.
The big rig is 9.5" wide and cut from two layers.

The Victorian basket is 7.5" in diameter and can be made as deep as you like by adding more basket rings. The pattern calls for the rings to be 1/4" thick but use thicker wood for a deeper basket.
The hot air balloon scene has four layers. It will be a fairly easy pattern to cut. A 24" X 24" pice if 1/4" thick plywood is more than you need to cut the pattern so it won't be too expensive to cut.
Over at the Bob's Home Woodshop YouTube channel, Bob always does a nice job explaining his scroll saw techniques. In this video, he cuts my Mother's Day pattern. It is about 13 minutes long.
YouTube is a good place to learn techniques but it can also be a bad place to learn questionable techniques. When you find a guy like Bob, who has been scrolling for years you can feel confident he is not getting off the tracks. That does not mean you must follow any of our videos as gospel. One technique will work well for one person and the next person will find that same technique challenging or too expensive. Attaching patterns to the wood is one example. I use spray adhesive but many scrollers hate spray adhesive. If you are new to scrolling then check out Bob's video on the
nine techniques of getting the pattern onto the wood.
Like any craft/art you need to be exposed to many techniques and then pick and choose. Eventually, you will have your own personalized methods.

Think Safety
Remember to keep the safety of yourself and others in your work shop in your thoughts at all times. Always wear eye and ear protection. Follow all the manufactures warnings that came with your power tools. If I demonstrate something on this web site that you don't feel is safe, don't do it. Your safety is your responsibility. Fingers are handy things, try to keep all of them.
