My first puzzles

[Mouse]

These are my first puzzles. The Kingfisher was cut using cheap blades, the fieldfairs were done with FD special jigsaw blades

Mouse,

You've been busy! All that work is excellent and makes me even more excited about getting a scroll saw (been sick).

Hi Bredan,

All done on my modified SIP its a very nice saw for the price. I have found that quality blades are as important as the saw.

Busy indeed! Scrollers usually take a photo of the back of the puzzle as well to show the lines of the pieces a bit better. Slow down a bit - you are putting ome of us to shame!

I was going to with the bigger one but dropped it turning it over :-({|= I had enough trouble putting it together as I cut it. :lol:

Hi Chris,

Hi There

Where do you get the birch ply from can you get it local or do you have to send mail order for it

I could do with some, a chap I was talking to at work told me there was a place in Hull that sold it but he had fogot the name

Thanks

Hi Olwyn,
I get it from ebay: http://stores.shop.ebay.co.uk/always-ho ... mit=Search.
I buy 4 sheets at a time 2ftX1ft and save on the postage. I have also had some of their 3mm and that was also good
I couldnt find any local but am interested if you do.

I'll order some in the next week or so I will still try and find this place in Hull and will let you know

Thanks Olwyn

Have been to Burnetts on Stoneferry they only sell 8x4 sheets cost £16 plus vat

I got a 4x1 sheet from the model shop near to the railway station for £8 inc vat which works out at £64 when i need some more will go to Burnetts with a saw to cut it and get it home easy

Hope this helps
