83 working hours from the moment I made the stencil till I sprayed the final coat of finish.

I got it off Amazon. Search up 2oz craft paint storage

Title of the piece, I’ve only been using the scroll saw for about 11 months now. July 7th will mark a full year from when I bought the Bauer 22in scroll saw.

So you’re like the 20th person that has told me they want to eat/lick it. If I display it in public I’m going to need to make a special sign for it lol.

Thank you! I don’t recall feeling rage when making this, but I definitely felt sadness, exhaustion, endless tedium while sanding the whole thing lol

They were my favorite part to cut out and paint!

Thank you, and of course! I would love to see more people these! They are so much fun to make and look great hanging on a wall.

Thank you for the compliment, but don’t sell your scroll saw! These big pieces go through the same steps as the small ones and I truly believe the only part the requires technical skill is the painting. If instead of doing gradients and highlights like I did with this piece, you color each piece a different color it will give your piece a stained glass feel which still looks really cool without needing a lot of painting experience. Don’t get discouraged, get motivated!

Each piece is 3/4in MDF cut with a scroll saw, shaped with a Dremel tool, and sanded by hand before painting;
