[Adéltional onlin features: community forum» scrller galleries ts “article index free patterns product reviews subscriber services Fall Frol Autumn is one of my favorite times of year. like the crisp air, crunchy leaves, and abundant apples, and I love the decorations. With the first tinge of orange on a leaf Istart throwing rusted metal silhouettes, raffia, ghosts, and gourds at every available surface. In eatly November I swap the ghosts for turkeys and wallow in calico and chrysanthemums straight through ‘til Thanksgiving Which perhaps explains the several Halloween- and autumn-themed projects in this issue. I especially like Judy and Dave Peterson's tree puzzle (page 72), which Leldon Maxcy cut just for us out of assorted hardwoods soit has a fall feel. Kathy Wise’s cat and pumpkin intarsia (page 18) is nifty, too. It can be made as one layered project or two stand-alone pieces. The spooky cat and delicately tinted pumpkin will aa a bit of fall fun to any room. Autumn is also election season, and with the presidential campaign in full swing we've been talking about red and blue states all year. So when we looked at Jim Sweet's Woodimal™ elephant and donkey, of course we saw political party mascots. jim designed exclusive Democrat and Republican patterns for us, and Donna Lloyd dressed them up with a little patriotic paint. If you prefer the actual animals, the original elephant and donkey Woodimals are available for free on our website, www.scrollsawer.com. Ifyou use autumn as your Christmas crafting season, I hope you'll take a second look at the three box projects in this issue— they're all great gift ideas. John Nelson's elegant Piavto Music Box (page 40) isa gorgeous heirloom for any music lover. Kim Braa's Tribal Turtle Box (page 24) is stylish and distinctive, and Thomas Haapapuro's Labyrinth Maze Boxes (page 34) marry simple designs with a classic concept. So, what's your favorite part of fall? Please drop me a line and let ‘me know—and I'd love to hear what you think of this issue's projects, too.

To this day, I have not sold any of my work. But I have given my work away to friends and family. Lalso give my work to charitable organizations. An apostle clock I made, for example, ‘was raffled off and raised more than $3,000 for the people of Haiti. I cut most of my work from Baltic birch plywood and stain it. I have worn out five scroll saws beyond repair. You may ask what I get for making these clocks. ‘Well, it's just the satisfaction of knowing that I can still be useful. Clarence Bechard Leamington, Ont, Canada Favorite Cover On the table in front of me are 42 issues of Scroll Saw Woodworking & Crafts and apile of other books and manuals I have purchased from Fox Chapel. All of them have been superb and interesting, However, to picka favorite cover was not very hard. My favorite is Issue #1 with Gary Browning's portrait of John Wayne. Scrolling John ‘Wayne added another sector to my woodworking hobby. Since then I have scrolled many portraits. The local grain terminal has let me display some portraits in their office. The last count ‘was 60 scroll saw portraits hanging on their walls. Richard Skagenberg Monticello, Ill Magazines a Great Value Te purchased your magazine here and there, but recently, 1 purchased a subscription. I was so delighted with the first issue received that I purchased the package of all of the available back issues. I went through the back issues and I have found ‘more than 20 patterns that I want to cut. If T went through a pattern company, I would spend at least $5 per pattern and there is usually a $5 shipping fee, which means I'd spend $10 for one pattern. By buying the back issues of Scroil Saw Woodworking & Crafts, | got 20 patterns for less than $200, plus the additional information and tips I received by reading the articles.

(the home of Camp LeJeune), created this eagle, globe, and anchor intarsia. Sharon drew the pattern based on a print hanging on a friend's wall and cut more than 345 pieces from aspen, blue pine, poplar, walnut, yellowheart, purpleheart, lacewood, and red cedar. Dana fit the pieces together and created the walnut frame. The piece now hangs at the local VFW. Pelican intarsia > Bob Berzonsky of Stow, Ohio, created this intarsia pelican using bird's-eye maple for the body, yellow heart for the beak and legs, blue pine for the water, bocote and wenge for the pilings, and ivory for the rope.

Cut and assemble this puzzle to create a 3-D spaceship on a visi to the ‘manin the moon. On the moon, the fo astronauts (who serve double duty as fun puzzle figurals) find the footprints of a previous astronaut, the man in the moon's moonshine lantern, and several stars, The puzzle makes a great display, and kids will think it’s a fun play-set, too (just keep the pieces away from the litle ones). I chose maple for the moon's face and walnut for the dark side of the moon. You can use any two contrasting varieties of wood, but make sure the face is lighter than the dark side. Making the Puzzle Transfer the patterns to the blanks and cut the outlines of the dark and light sides of the moon, Make sure the two pieces fit together tightly; the place where the face meets the dark side is the only part of the moon that requires extreme precision. If you stray from the line when cutting the first half of the moon, trace the edge that you actually cut onto the second half so they match. 1 the two sides fit together to form the moon's circle, cut the puzzle pieces and the figurals. I drilled blade-entry holes Manet:
