Scroll Saw

[kenwc]

I've picked up an RBI Hawk 216-3 Scroll saw at what I think was a really good price and I wonder if and how it might help me expand my abilities with pens and bottle stoppers.

Do any one you use a Scroll Saw to create some of the linear type segments and inlays on pens?

Take your pick
All I have is a lowley used dremel.
With a HAwk you should get better results.

This is the only picture of this pen in this position I know of.

This was my first successful attempt at combining a laminated piece of plexiglass with Eagleyezed wood

<br />


You don't need to stop at wood
bloodwood and aluminum
Drilled turned and finished by DC bluesman

<br />
or you can mix metal and plexiglass with powder coat.
Copper veined copper and plexiglass

<br />


The thinner the strips the better

<br />


This was my first successful design 29 pieces of wood laminated to get the blank, most gets turned off

<br />



Offset lamnation

<br />

Sometiems you need to experiment

<br />

On second thought I don't think it would be of any use.

I don't think I have any woodworking tools that are Craftsman, I know better now.I certainly would not keep them on a ship.
They would rust.Besides Camden is landlocked.
Well wait a minute there is the Wateree river(not a typo that's how they spell it) but I Don't think a ship could float on it most of the time it is dry.
The river there is no ship to get wet.

Ok...lol...I'll take that as a yes...I can incorporate my Scroller into Penmaking. Thanks for posting those. As I looked at them in the past I wondered (ok...I'm a greenhorn) if they were done with a scroll saw.

Figure out which one I did with a chain saw

The guy I bought the RBI from delivered it to me this morning. I'd never touched a scroll saw before but when I turned it on and started cutting some scrap I was surprised at how fun it was. I'll still make sawdust with it though...and lots of it...just with a thinner kerf.

Beautiful work eagle, How about a tutorial on the basics for these wonderful writing instruments?

I always thought they were done with magic [^] Every time I look at some of Eagle's work, I just shake my head. Talk about patience! I am also drooling at the Hawk. Good luck with a great saw
