The hippo is back, this time as a picture frame for Ana’s desk (to hold a picture of David… on a hippo)
Last weekend I purchased a few cheap boards of wood to get some practice on my scroll saw. What better way to test it out than to cut out the hippo again? It takes alot of patience and concentration for me at this point - if you go too fast or turn too quickly, the blade will snap and scare the hell out of you. It’s not perfect, but by the time I got to the oval I was able to make it in almost one continuous cut around.
I’m glad to see you’re getting the hang of that scroll saw. Nice work! Have Ana braid a yarn tail for her hippo.
