Thread: LOVE BEER vertical compound cut design help

Having never used a scroll saw I needed to research this. When you say you have 'designs' for the others, is that just the required text in a PDF which you can print and attach to your stock? If so you might need to give us a hint regarding the preferred font and the size (height). I also wonder, because I'm still struggling to get my head around it, weather there's more to it with the way the letters line up.

If you go to Steve Goods site you will find plaques that you are able to modify if my memory serves me right there is one with beer tankards that can be utilised.

Thanks Picko I will include two pictures of the one piece of wood in my post.

Cheers.

Thanks Mature One, I've searched there, but to no avail I'm afraid.

Yeah I see how it works now and I can create a PDF for you to print, but I need to know the required text font and height.

Thank you

My print out of LOVE WINE has two frames, one for each word side by side, and the measurements 2"X2"X6". I am certain the font is Cooper Black, and the plinth is 2 centimetres high at the shoulder.

Cheers Picko.

OK, so I'm a bit unsure of some descriptions you're using here. eg frames, plinth. Is there a chance you could attach the PDF of the 'LOVE WINE' template or at least a photo of it.
It would make life easier if I could at least see what the goal posts look like.

EDIT I should have looked back at your original post with the photo of the end result, I think I get most of it now.
Just to clarify does the block of wood start out at 2"x2"x6".

There you go, although I'm not sure if I'm allowed to post links here.

Cheers Picko

So, something like this?

By golly I think you have got it right there Picko.

I will get started on doing one this afternoon and when it is done I'll get back to you.

Many thanks my friend.

Cheers.

OK, here's the PDF.

Thanks once again Picko.

I got waylaid and have only just today been able to have a go at cutting today Friday. I have chosen mahogany and only one quarter of the way through the cut with three blades broken so far. I will try again later or even tomorrow. LOL

I think pine may have been a btter choice.

Thanks for the PDF..
