Fhqwhgads' latest woodworking project...
 
I dusted off the 'ol scrollsaw and made a gift for my father for his birthday. He's a woodworker too, and I'm hoping he'll hang it in his shop.

Very nice, I love the sawblad best. What did you use for a finish on it?

I.......LOVE it!

I'd like to order one for my father - his birthday is coming up soon :lol:

Such an interesting 3-D effect with the sawblade. This would be a profitable item to sell.

Wow, this just radiates Quality. I think your dad will be proud to hang it.

Wow... thanks for all the positve feedback! I appreciate all the comments.

WarWagon- I used a wipe on polyurethane that soaks into the wood. It said that it leaves a gloss finish, but it's not as glossy as some of the brush on products that I've used. It doesn't change the color of the wood though, which is great. I rarely stain wood. All the wood in the sign is it's original color.

I haven't considered selling any of my work. It's purely a hobby at this point. (Although I did "sell" one of my projects to a fellow TFP'er because I wanted to make a donation to the TFP) I have considered making a few pieces and taking them to a craft show at some point in the future, but right now I enjoy making gifts for my friends.

Thanx again for all the positive feedback. I'll be sure to post more pics as I come up with new stuff.
