You did a WONDERFUL JOB!! LOOKS GREAT!! I'm gonna use my scroll saw for the first time ever and I wanted these to be my first "project" with it.
Thanks, Jeremy. These were the first project with mine as well.
I use a Ryobi One+ nail gun and have experienced blow outs and wondered why?! thank you so much for explaining and clearing that up. Excellent video and Jack-O-Lantern designs.
Thank you, and you're welcome!
Cool project. I have seen other projects that had similar issues sticking the electrode (protruding dowels) onto a board after assembly. I catch myself wondering if you drilled a smaller hole into the board and the dowel sort of like a dowel joint or just drilling a hold into the board the same size as your electrode and gluing them in would have worked and been a bit stronger. Anyway, cool project and thank you for sharing it.
Thanks. Yeah, making a hole and gluing them in would've been better, but I'll just use these 2 for displays, and make others to sell with a screw, like the top.
@@maverickdesignswoodworking great idea!
Did it take the entire bottle of Gentleman Jack to complete the build😂😂
Lol. I was wondering if anyone would mention that. I make lamps out of those bottles. I should probably do a video on them.
@maverickdesignswoodworking yes please do I uhhh, possibly have access to empty bottle myself
Great tutorial Mav...
Thanks!
I have 2 Shapeoko cnc’s. I’ve been wanting to do these for a few years but never got around to making them. I like your rectangular box over the squyyou usually see these made with. You’ve put some great ideas in my head, thanks!❤ I would think if you spent a little time on a jig for the base mounting to the body. Time is money! Much faster batch processing them with a jig. Less time measuring all sides to center. Just slide bottom into jig. The jig is a 2 level design. 1st level is a piece of wood the same thickness of your base. It has a 3 sided hole cut out so base slides in easily. 2nd piece is glued to 1st. It has 3 sided cutout the size of the body. Once the base is inserted then glue edge of body and set on top of base in jig. Perfect alignment every time. Once glue dry enough to hold, take out and shoot brads. Or build upside down jig. The same basic design. 1st is body on table. Have the jig so it sits somehow on the body. Once the jig is sitting on body you put you a bead of tightbond on. Then put base in jig on top of glue and brad nail. Now all base plates are aligned perfectly every time.
That's a good idea about the jig. I'll see what I can come up with for one.
My only suggestion is that you might wanna put a slight angle on the bottom an top of the stem
Thanks, I'll try it. .
@@maverickdesignswoodworking you're welcome, just adds that stem lean , I'd say anywhere between a 20° and 22.5° angle.
I’m having a huge problem on the east coast finding these pickets. None a Home Depot or Lowes! Can you recommend another type of wood? Is pressured treated ok? Is The Depots Outdoor Essentials pressure treated? Could I use pine? Thanks as always, Bob
You could use any type of wood. I wouldn't use anything pressure treated though. Pine would be fine, it would definitely be stronger, but more expensive. Maybe 1/2" plywood? You'd just have to be careful not to burn through or bubble up the top veneer. I find it incredible though that there are no fence pickets at any big box store. We have several types at all the stores here in California.
@@maverickdesignswoodworkingThanks
How could you add a way to hang them while still having it accessible for placing the candle?
Hmmm. Off the top of my head, I'd say add some little eyelets to each corner of the base and run fishing line or twine or something through them to a single point at the top to hang from. Otherwise you'd have to redesign the whole thing to have the top permanently attached, and then using a hinge and catch, or maybe magnets so that the base could be opened/removed. You could also dado or half slot the bottom of the sides of the box and the base so that they slide together and you can remove the base that way. Just a couple ideas off the top of my head.
They make a sanding blade for the scroll saw makes getting into tight areas easy for more complex patterns fyi
Really? I didn't know that. That would be very helpful. I'll look into it. Thanks!
@@maverickdesignswoodworkinghey friend absolutely nice video very helpful..a question ❓ xan you tellme where did you BOUGHT the patterns for the faces ,, if you can.
@emmanuellevargas7021 Etsy. There is a link to the ones I got in the description, but there are a lot of other choices for similar prices too.
Hi! Are you allowed to add the link to Etsy for the faces?
Love these projects!
Thanks, Donna!
I think so. I'll paste it here and put it in the description. This is the one I got, but there are a lot of them there. www.etsy.com/listing/1068596566/pumpkin-face-x100-bundle Keep in mind though, that I drew out these newer ones myself-- they aren't in those files, except for the vampire face. That one I took elements from a couple different faces and put them together.
@@maverickdesignswoodworkingThanks so much!😊
My local LOWEs doesn’t have 1x6 Cedar fence pickets. I assume I can use the pine fence pickets or even just use regular pine correct? And where did you find the different face designs from.
Yes any wood will work, it's just much cheaper to get fence pickets generally. There are a bunch of people selling those files on Etsy for just a couple dollars. That's where I got mine.
Home depot has them- most pine are pickets are treated
Love your videos and teaching style. Excellent presentation. I’m a newbie so I’m wondering why you chose the brad nailer over a pin nailer? If you had to buy just one to start out with, which one would you choose and battery or pneumatic? Thanks Bob
Thanks. You could use either, I suppose, but pins are headless which makes a smaller hole, but because cedar is so soft and this wood so thin, my concern is that they would not hold it together as well as brad nails. You'd also have to play around with your air pressure (or depth on a battery one) so the pin doesn't push all or most of the way through the top piece. And to tell the truth, I didn't have a pin nailer yet when I made the first video, so using the brad nailer was a necessity. I prefer air over battery because the battery ones are so big and heavy. The air tools just feel more elegant to me, for lack of a better word.
@@maverickdesignswoodworking Thanks for a great response. So as a first tool you’d say a brad nailer?
@@maverickdesignswoodworking Thanks so much. I’ll be trying this project. I appreciate the advice so much! Bob
Yeah, it's much more versatile. The pin nailer is more for finish molding and stuff like that.
You're absolutely welcome!
nice little project!
Thanks!
What are the dimensions of the main table without the wings and the main base footprint? I want a saw for my basement shop and I don't have bulkhead doors and the basement stairs have finished walls and a right angle turn on the landing.
It's about 20" wide, 27" deep, and 34" tall without anything on it.
These look like lots of fun, I just dont have a scroll saw. Not sure if I want to attempt with a jigsaw,lol. Maybe one day!
Some people do them with router templates too, but that just seems like a lot more work to me.
I really like these. How much do you sell them for? Where do you get the stains? Thanks
I usually sell them for 20 each or 3 for 50. The stain is minwax from Lowes. I strongly recommend the solid stain over the semi transparent for reasons I went over in my two flag staining videos. These colors are Fiesta Orange, hunter green, pure white, and true black.
😂 I love how you hit that brad into the fake piece to hold it . Great frustration cure
Lol. You gotta do what you gotta do! That top is pretty beat up. I've been meaning to replace it with a sheet of black melamine for a while, I just haven't gotten around to it yet.
These are awesome, I had thought about trying some of these, maybe if time allows. The white stain would make a cool Scream/Ghostface also if you are looking for more ideas.
Already did it! Watch the first video. This is an update to that one.
@@maverickdesignswoodworking 🤦🏻♂️ My bad bro, I do need to go back and watch it. I did really enjoy the tips on the Brad nails. I never really thought about which way I put them in before, but it makes so much sense! Thanks!
These look great!!
Thanks!

Glad to see you back. Good video
Thanks Scott. Yeah, between my day job and trying to keep up with orders, I've had a hard time finding time to make videos. Hopefully it will get better.
Tom, another great video, what kind of prices are you getting for these?
Thanks. I usually sell them for 20 each or 3 for 50, but it will greatly depend on your local market.
Great video
Thanks, Robert!
Great video.
Thanks, David!
Great video, love the colors. I went back and watched the first video as well, I might have missed it but did you say what brand and color stain? I have bought tinted stains in the past but they were not that dark more transparent with a tint to them
These are all minwax stains from Lowes. In the video I'm using the semi transparent tint base, but only because I already had it and don't want to waste it. I strongly recommend you use the minwax solid tint base. Go check out my 2 videos on staining American flags to see why. The colors I'm using are hunter green, true black, and pure white.
@@maverickdesignswoodworking Thanks
What is the name of the Minwax stain you used? This is the best instruction video I've seen on TH-cam for Jack-O-Lanterns.. And the most professional looking results. Got to do this project your way. Unfortunately I cannot get the wood you use. Spruce or Pine are my options. Thank you for posting this detailed video. Going to check out your torching video now. Subscribed.
Thanks Darrell! I'll actually be posting a follow up to this video with some new designs for this year, and detailed instructions on how to avoid and fix brad nail blowouts. It should be up in the next 30 minutes or so.

Thanks, Darrell, and welcome!
@@maverickdesignswoodworking Thank you.
Super cool projects. Thank you
Thanks! I've got an update coming out with some new cool designs, hopefully in a few days.
@@maverickdesignswoodworking I'm looking forward to seeing all that you do. Thanks
Put the side boards in between the frn and back piece. Than you dint see the seam of the side boards.
I intentionally did them this way because the templates were so wide and I wanted some edging and reinforcement on the sides where some are very thin.
Couldn't you make a permanent pattern for the faces and trace it out then cut?
It's funny you mention that. I'm currently working on an update video to this one with some new designs, and my wife threw away my hand drawn templates thinking they were something the kids were doing, so I was digging them out of the trash this morning, lol. Because of that, that's exactly what I'm doing with the new ones.
@@maverickdesignswoodworking lol.
great technique. fun project
Thanks, John. I'm working on an update to this video now with some new and improved designs. Hoping to get it out by the weekend.
What was the pride on them
I've been selling them 20 each or 3 for 50, but it will depend on your local market.
Cool project
Thanks, Jason. Working on an update video with some new designs right now!
Pro tip; turn your nail gun so that it is parallel with the edge instead of perpendicular to it. You rarely ever have a blow out.
Thanks for the comment, but that's actually not correct. Brad nails are thinner on one side than the other, kind of like a 2x4, and that thin side is oriented so that it comes out of the gun much more likely to bend to the left or right of the gun, as opposed to along the same direction (forward or back). Of course, things like wood grain direction and knots will affect things, but in general, you should nail perpendicular to the board you're driving into. That way, if the nail flexes left or right of the gun, it's far less likely to come out the side of the bottom board because it would need to flex forward or back along the thicker profile to do so. I've thought about making a video about this, but haven't because both Brad Rodriguez at Fix this Build That and the Honest Carpenter have already done comprehensive videos on it. Maybe I'll do one anyway, or maybe I'll mention it in the follow up video I'm working on to this one right now.
Nice job!...appreciate the explanation. If we have time, we may make these for our upcoming September show.
Thanks, Bill. I hope to put out an update video in next few days with some new designs too.
How much do you sell them for?
20 each or 3 for 50. But that's really going to depend on your market.
@@maverickdesignswoodworking That's what I had in mind. thanks! I live in Az
Where did you get the item you used to push your wood through the table saw.
That's the Microjig Grr-Ripper Pushblock. It's awesome. In fact, I have a couple of them. I added an Amazon affiliate link to it in the video description for you.

What is the height of your sacrificial fence? I have the same saw and love that idea. Thx
I just checked. It's 4.5 inches, about .5 less than the fence, but not by any specific design. It was just an offcut piece of 1/2" plywood I had in my scrap bin at the time that was around the right size.
