    Default My first attempt

    My MIL died on Saturday afternoon, feeling useless and in the way, decided to dig out wife's GMC scroll saw and have a go.

    Here is the result, a Celtic cross for her.

    Its just three ply and some mahogany stain
    I may not have gone where I intended to go, but I think I have ended up where I needed to be.

    sorry to hear about your loss

    not a bad effort on the cross for your first go, little tricky for your first go but you did well. hope you keep having a go at it.

    Yes Gra, I agree, a nice thought for someone close to you. A nice design as well.

    Good to see you back among us Oges.
