Got a lot accomplished today. Got some 3D parts scrolled out for the front bumpers.

Impressive
Those 3D pieces for the front bumper were quite a task. They are made out of a 1-5/8" x 1-1/2" blocks of hard Maple. That is a challenge for the scroll saw to cut through. My hands and arms were strained from hold down and guiding the work piece.

** 3D scrolling requires cutting the top view out, then turning the wood on its side and cutting the side view. The piece in the center of the block is the actual piece you keep. The rest of the pieces are discarded.
