This is a great beginner project. Pencil design right on the wood, few sharp turns, and if you wander a little off the lines, who cares? That’s the new design. I will admit to being a bit overjoyed that I thought an angled cut on the base would look good, and then you did just that. Nice work!
Glad that you liked the project Frank. This one opens the door to so many things. Practice in scrolling and following lines. Cutting curves practice. Heck, you could even add a little wood burning to the tree to make it more decorative. I hope that you will give this one a try. Thanks for tuning in.
That's great Kenny, you just gave me ideas to make lots of small, simple and beautiful Christmas gifts. Wonderfully simple and looks great. Thanks ever so much.
I was going to get rid of this one because I only really made it for the show. Turns out, my wife loves it and wants it for herself. Who knew. Good luck making one for your wife. I hope she loves it. Thanks for tuning in to the show this week.
Love, love it….buying my scroll saw this week (just a Makita) and this is definitely going on my project list. I was thinking possibly hanging a small wood round with some wood burning on it, so many possibilities!
Definitely some great opportunities for customization. A while back, a viewer asked me if I could send them this pattern so I traced my original cutting and then scanned it to a pdf file. If you would like a copy of that pattern Dawn, you can email the show or send a message to the channel's Facebook page and I would be more than happy to share it with you. Thanks for tuning in to the show and good luck on your project.
Very nice work, simple but very original. The important thing, as you say, is to do the fun and enthusiastic work. Thank you very much for sharing the idea. Greetings from Puebla, Mexico.
Probably one of the best scroll saw projects on youtube ! Really well explained and presented. My used / pre-owned Proxxon scroll saw should master this really well, at least for pine : I gave up on trying to cut ash. Any blade suggestions for hard woods ??? 🤷🏼♂️
Ash is very similar to oak and can be a bit of a tough cut. It all depends on what thickness you are trying to cut. I wouldn't cut 1/4" thick ask with a #7 blade any more than I would cut 3/4" thick ask with a #2. I have found that for cutting harder woods of a larger thickness (3/4" thick) an Olson, #7 PGT reverse tooth blade works rather well. You just have to cut slowly to give the blade's gullets time to clear the sawdust, otherwise you are just burning and overheating the blade. What thickness of stock are you trying to cut and what blade are you trying to use. You may want to check out my Scroll Saw Blade Selection video on the channel. It's an older video and a longer video but it is still valid information. Thanks for tuning in to the show.
Man the second I saw you cutting this out and heard the music, all I could think about was thoses early 30's cartoons. Remember the one's where all the trees and houses were swaying away in back ground? Put a groovy looking Santa in front doing that "Keep on trucking strut" with your trees rocking in the back. Instant cool...lol. Like this alot..Peace.
I'm glad that you like it. I traced the original tree and scanned it to a PDF file. If you would like, you can send me a PM on the channel's Facebook page and I would be more than happy to share the tracing with you so that you can cut one of your own. Thanks for tuning in to the show and taking the time to leave a comment. It's truly appreciated. facebook.com/kennyearrings1
Glad to hear it Immanuel. I have a rustic pattern for this if you would like me to send it to you. Just send me a message on the channel's facebook page and I can send it along. Thanks for tuning in.
A really cool, awkwardly shaped, funny piece, in a nice kind of way, easy to do which gets a tick from me (or a thumb), i suppose you can use a jigsaw if you haven't got a scroll saw? I saw it sitting in the background of your Zombie Dog video and i was wondering if that video was up soon. Well done Kenny i love it. Barry (ENG)
A jig saw would be fine for this project Barry; as would a fret saw. You're not the first one to mention that they saw it in the zombie dog video. I can see that I am going to have to pay more attention to what is in the background of the show. LOL. Thanks for tuning in.
Nice job Ken! Kinda has a Grenchy feel to it. I saw this in your zombie dog video, but I didn’t see the champagne bottles or hearts in this one. Lol thanks Ken!
This one was made a while ago but I was waiting until we were a little closer to the winter months to post it. Gotta give people time to make it if they want one before Christmas. Thanks for tuning in Frank.
Thank you for sharing! This looks easy enough for me :-) . What is that scaled design thingie you used to mark the lines for the base of the tree? Where can I purchase
I think you are referring to the INCRA T-rule. That is an amazing product and I honestly can't think of a project that I've made where it wasn't involved. You can get them from most woodworking suppliers, directly from INCRA, or from Lee Valley. Here's a link. www.leevalley.com/en-ca/shop/tools/hand-tools/marking-and-measuring/rules/58877-incra-t-rules I hope it helps. Thanks for tuning in to the show.
Kenny, nice simple Christmas decoration. You sure have come up with some great scrap work projects lately. Where do you keep all that stuff? Your shop isn’t that big....but it is clean...LOL. Funny observation, on your Tuesday show I noticed it sitting on the workbench so I was sort of wondering when it would show up. Thanks for sharing.
Thanks for the kind words Paul. You are not the first to see the scrolled tree in the background. Darn that background for giving away the surprise. LOL. All of this stuff is displayed or given away Paul. This one, was slated for the wood stove as I wasn't going to take up more room with another woodworking project but the Mrs liked it and wouldn't have it burned so I guess it will be sealed and displayed in this years Christmas decorating. Serves me right for showing it to her I guess. LOL. Thanks for tuning in Paul.
Perry here again...I am making these as Xmas gifts...could you if you know about how long it took you to cut the tree out...I have just got a DeWalt big up date from my wen...using the smaller blades game changer...thanks again for your video
I don't really time projects like this one Perry as I am enjoying myself to the point where time just flies by. If I were to guess at how long it takes to cut one of these, I would venture to say about 15 minutes. I hope this helps. Thanks for tuning in and good luck on your project.
