That’s rather clever Alan, well done. I noticed that the Oak frame isn’t mitred. :love_it::love_it::thinks:

How has that been done Alan? I am a fan of Celtic artwork so have a collection of both 2D & 3D designs. All mine are done on the CNC machine though, not got the skills to do it by hand lol

Hello Martin.
I pasted the pattern ( downloaded from internet ) onto 2 sheets of plywood and cut around the outside and then the bits around the dogs legs. When I separated the 2 parts I had an accurate backer board. I cut all the brown parts of the dogs and the bit left stained black, Put it all back together when dry onto the backer board and the whole thing attached to an off-cut of laminate flooring. All done on the scroll saw. Hope you follow all that. Alan
