Default Scrollsaw Tractor

This a Farmall tractor that is cut from 1/4 inch solid Birch and mounted on pine barn wood . This my own pattern that drew from a picture that I got in some junk mail.

Great Job! Love the use of the old wood as a backdrop.

That is an old Farmall that was owned by International Harvester which is now owned by Case I think.
The frame is real and is made of barn wood also.

I like that crolf. The tractor looks great on that barnwood...and a fine scrolling job as well!

That is one very fine piece of workmanship Crolf but tell me, did the steering column really stay in one piece?

Nice one Crolf. Did you have any trouble getting the tractor to stick to the rough barn wood?

There's a big thread on another board I frequent about people who use power tools not having the skills or talents of 'real' (ie hand tool only) wood workers.
Wish they could see this piece.
GREAT work.
And, yes -- thats a Farmall -- spent MANY an afternoon (some more pleasant than others) leaning against that half-fender on one while my moms dad worked his truck patch.
THANKS for sharing.
