Chess pieces

Here is an example of some chess pieces that I made out of the wood that was left over from my puzzles. I cut the chess pieces out of pine that I had glued together to make 3/4" blanks.

More portraits

Here is another portrait that I did on my scroll saw of my brother Mike and his fiance Sara.

There were several step that I took to convert the below picture to the finished portrait. the first step that I did was to load the picture up into the photoshop elements program. I then used the threshold option to convert the picture into black and white. The next step that I did was to edit the photo with the erase tool. I printed the picture. I glued it to a piece of 1/8" Finnish birch plywood. Then I cut it out on my scroll saw.
