Title: EIEIO's model A
Post by: Charvercarver on May 16, 2013, 02:01:31 pm
I just cut the pattern today, I had to do a few alterations on the fly (that is I cut some bits to thin and they broke ;D). It came out quite well and the pattern was excellent. Much thanks to EIEIO.

Looks good.  If you had not told us no one would know.  Thanks for sharing this one with us.

Nice cutting job - it looks swell. I had not tried to cut it myself. If there are bad parts to the pattern, please let me know and I'll make changes.

I went back and forth on the reflection on the side - was that OK with you?

I see you reversed the pattern. Is this for one of those drive-on-the-wrong-side customers?  ;) ;D

DWSudekum, newfie, dgman, Al W  :

Thanks, I hope I did the pattern justice.

EIEIO:

The pattern was great, I resized it to fit a piece of oak I had so it ended up being about 2.5x4 inches. It was also the first time I've used spiral blades so that could have had something to do with it.

I like the reflection, I prefer patterns that look like drawings which I think yours does.

Well, ahem, I didn't reverse the pattern so much as take a picture the wrong way round ;D The proper way round can be seen here:

Thanks once more for the pattern.

That's a lot of cutting on a 2.4"x4" piece of oak. amazing. I like your other work as well. The butterfly looks very clean.

Nicely done, and in such a small space too. I snaffled a copy of that pattern and will be having a go at it someday.

Nice! I am going to set my display up at an antique care show in a couple of weeks and am thinking about sawing a few antique car portraits and see if they sell. There will be other vendors and they are expecting a few thousand visitors so we'll see.

Cool cutting and pattern, Eio do you have other patterns available or do you follow Grampa's lead and just whip them out if folks request one? As you can tell I've been away a bunch and missed a lot of what is going on, if you want to just send me a PM so we don't have to clutter up the thread too much.

EIEIO:

Thanks. I actually got my scroll saw for roughing out carving blanks like that butterfly, but pure scroll sawing has an appeal all of its own.

Toneman:

This is for someone who belongs to the UK Model A owners club, if he likes it he said he might advertise them in the club magazine, we'll see I suppose.

I hope it goes well at the car show, I would be interested in how the portraits sell, if you make any.

Cheers all for the nice comments and once again kudos to EIEIO for the pattern.

Jon.
