Scroll Saw a Jack-o-Lantern

with Walter Troester

Saturday, September 27, 10:30 AM - 4 PM

Halloween is coming. This month we will be scroll sawing some scary lanterns. There will be several different profiles to choose from. These lanterns will be approximately 9 inches square and 12 inches high. That is a large piece to store for displaying, just for a short time. Therefore, I modified and simplified the building process. We will be using threaded brass inserts which will allow the panels to be taken apart and stored flat, ready for next year. Cutting out the scary face is not demanding nor is following the pattern all that critical. It’s supposed to be scary, right? The interior space is large enough to accommodate numerous kinds of LED lights, either battery operated or hardwired. How you decide to illuminate the lantern will be up to the individual. No lighting will be provided. However, I will have several different examples available to help you decide.
