Angel Ornament

By far my favorite ornament.

Cutting out the pattern with the Exacto blade.

Tracing to the repurposed Poplar.

Cutting on the Scroll Saw. My fingers on my right hand were injured in a Table Saw Accident, so you will notice the odd angles of my finger in several pictures on this blog.

Each individual cut is made very carefully. I am cutting out the inside of the wings first because if I cut the outline first and then cut the tiny inside pieces, the chances of the wood chattering on the scroll saw is pretty good and I'd most likely break one of the hands off.
