Check and M'O also welcome. sometimes I just don't know how a piece will turn out until Kerry puts it into wood. The negative spaces are much more dramatic in reality then in my imagination, so a piece usually turns out better then I expect. You can follow my patterns a little easier because Kerry has done the project first for reference. I use "dots" to indicate negative space (where a section will come out); however, the dots are only guidelines and not actually the best place to drill a hole. I have developed this style to make it easier for my husband to identify negative spaces and drill holes for scrolling. He drills anywhere in the space and chooses a spot that is the best place for him to start. I LOVE detail, but sometimes I get a little carried away. I suggest that scrollers use my pattern as a guideline, and embellish or eliminate to taste. I like to do our magazine and web pieces in Baltic birch plywood; this shows off the pattern and gives the best contrast. Feel free to use the wood you have or your favorite grain to make the piece uniquely yours. I have listed only one piece of 1/8" wood in the supply list but we stack cut at least six pieces at a time. We apply double-sided sticky tape to the four corners of the wood, staying clear of the pattern. These boards are cut to fit our ready-made frames and are approximately 12-11/16" by 9-7/8". When completed and depending on your mounting preference, for a backer you can use birch board spray painted black, the cardboard that comes with your frame spray painted black, colored or textured fabric, or a dark piece of walnut or other fine wood cut and edged. INSTRUCTIONS Adhere the pattern to your wood of choice. Make sure your surface is clean and your glue even (to try Removable Adhesive Paper, please see the website www.skwoodworks.com). Center the pattern on the wood. Note: remember to center the pattern, NOT the paper. Square your blade, and check frequently while scrolling, especially if stack cutting. Pre-drill all holes, and put a starter hole at the end of all the single lines (i.e. the lines to show tufts of snow along the bottom). Cut your smaller areas first, usually at the center of the pattern. Take out the biggest areas last. Remember, we primarily use a spiral blade for our pieces; a straight blade may not be able to do all of the detail in the animals and on Santa. Try to give the holly berries as much detail as possible in the wreath hanging on the stall door. When you are finished, gently pry the boards apart. Remove your pattern and use the belt sander to sand the backs of each board for any fuzz. Carefully blow the sawdust off of each piece with compressed air. Match to backers and frame. for more information about us, pattern ideas, supplies and information on Removable Adhesive Paper, please visit out website (www.SKWOODWORKS.comJ.
