I traced the bear on the three pieces of pallet wood and then cut it out using a handheld jigsaw. I made sure to collect each piece as I cut it and put them all in a box so it wouldn't get lost with the other workshop scraps.

Pallet Bear "Puzzle" Sign
I am pretty sure puzzle maker is not a future title I will hold. But, I did have fun making this bear "puzzle" sign from pallet wood.
I traced the bear on the three pieces of pallet wood and then cut it out using a handheld jigsaw. I made sure to collect each piece as I cut it and put them all in a box so it wouldn't get lost with the other workshop scraps.
I then glued and nailed the outside pieces to a piece of plywood. I stain the bear pieces and glued and nailed them into place.
This was a fun piece to make. The turns were a challenge with the jigsaw, but I plan on trying different shapes soon!

That is so cute. It doesn't even look like pallet wood anymore. If you end up doing a lot of puzzles you may want to purchase a tabletop scroll saw...it is sooooo easy to use and perfect for puzzles.
ReplyDeleteThanks Joan and thank you for the tool tip. It might have to go on my tool wish list!
DeleteI like it. I have a laser light jigsaw that scrolls but it makes me nervous on the tight turns. Table top scroll saw sounds interesting. If I had the space!
ReplyDeleteThanks Deb. I know, I might need a table top scroll saw. So many tools, so little cash and space!
DeleteAnother cute project. I can see how you will have a lot of fun working on these.
ReplyDeleteThank you Debra! I want to make some Montana signs like these.
