This was my first try at doing fretwork. I have had the saw in the shop for a long time. Decided to give it a try.:) Got the templet and a piece of wood. Took 8 days at night in the shop. And no goof ups.:):)

You are blessed - with patience.

LOL! Thanks Tom!! The shop is my hideaway.:) I can go out and relax. But the wood is my savior. Love to work with it. I do make a lot of fire wood some times tho.:)

Ive done a few of the 3d ones, where the center pops out, I gave away my saw when I moved and I really dont miss it. Nice work though. I know how hard it can be

Really nice Erv.

I have patterns like that. Hopefully I will someday build up the nerve to tackle one.

Thanks Will!!! I just took my time. It was kind of relaxing to try. Something new, but I still think carving is my love.:):)

Thank you! Yes it was fun to try. I might do a few more. But my carvings are my relaxation and my love.

The first thought that came to mind is "exquisite".
You have a lot of patience.
