G'day all, I am looking for patterns for 3D reindeer that are cut on the bandsaw.I have seen them on the net but have had no luck finding a pattern.
I know they are made by cutting from the front and side of a piece of timber , giving a 3D model.
SWMBO wants a couple for Christmas decoration. Has anyone made any?
Where can i find a pattern? Cheers Steven:no:

Theres a magazine that swmbo's old man buys that has heaps of those style of plans.

Unfortunately I cant remember the name of the magazine. Will try and find out. :)

Compound Scrollsawing.

That's where you need to look. The thing is, a blade must be inserted into a hole for compound cuts, and a band saw doing that is something I cannot comprehend.

However, if you can find them, I'm sure you will see the deer pattern therein.
