TIP ZERO CLEARANCE INSERT Use a piece of cereal box or shirt cardboard to make a zero clearance insert. Drill a small blade-entry hole in the cardboard, and tape it to your saw table with some masking tape. The zero clearance insert helps support fragile areas and reduces the risk of breaking those parts. © 2007 Fox Chapel Publishing Co., Inc.

Fretwork Program Detailed Instructions
Fretwork Program Detailed Instructions Fretwork is an art form whereby the artist produces a piece by cutting numerous holes (or frets) in a medium in order to produce a picture or design. In woodworking, that medium is normally wood, but other types of media can be used as well. Equipment The best tool for fretwork is a good-quality scroll saw, one that produces little vibration, and has more vertical motion of the saw blade. This is especially important for delicate pieces, as excessive vibration or blade friction on the wood can cause fragile pieces to break. Since fretwork involves threading a blade through a small hole to cut the frets, a saw that makes this process easier would be ideal. Excaliber and RBI are excellent choices, and I have had good luck with the DeWalt 780 I’ve owned for about 15 years, in spite of its limitations. Supplies Good quality blades are essential to good fretwork results. I have used Olsen blades in the past, which are probably marginal at best. I really like the Flying Dutchman blades, in particular the #1 Ultra Reverse. The blade is quite thin (one of the thinnest in their line), but I have no problems using it to cut material up to 1” thick. The reverse teeth on the bottom of the blade help to minimize “fuzzies” that you’ll get on the bottom of the piece as you’re cutting. For safety, of course safety glasses are a must, and some kind of dust mask for respiratory protection. Other things you’ll need (aside of the wood of choice and backer material) • A photocopier, or access to one (for producing patterns) • Spray adhesive • Paste wax • Mineral spirits • Sandpaper • Jointer and planer (if you’ll be preparing your own stock from rough cut) • Random orbit sander or drum sander (also for stock prep) • Drill press or hand drill • Small drill bits • Finishes Wood to use For fretwork in wood, the best results can be obtained by using close-grained hardwood, such as maple or German beech. -

PYROGRAPHY BASICS (Demonstration) Janice Levi [email protected] www.janicelevi.com 713-410-4193 TOOLS AND EQUIPMENT: (Wood burners) Solid Tip Wood Burner ◦ Temperature cannot be controlled, ◦ Writing tip is usually heavier in size. ◦ Shading is controlled by how quickly or slowly the line is burned. Variable Temperature Wood Burner—Temperature can be controlled, tips are either fixed or interchangeable. Soldering Iron ◦ Some have temperature controls ◦ Tips can be purchased or homemade Home Made Wood Burners—Burners can be made from battery chargers and dimmer switches. (NOTE: I will primarily be demonstrating the variable temperature wood burner) OTHER EQUIPMENT: Burning Tips—A variety of tips can be purchased. Tips can also be made from nichrome wire, available online, or brass rod Graphite pencils—2B, 4B, 6B Graphite Paper 200-250 grit sandpaper, brass brush, or steel wool scouring pad—to clean the tips Needle Nose pliers—for one-temperature tools Metal ruler or straightedge Drafter’s triangle To add color, you can use: ◦ Artist quality colored pencils, markers ◦ Artist’s acrylic paint and brushes, dyes Spray Fixative, Polyurethane spray sealer, tung oil, Danish oil finish and Paste wax, water-based urethane WOODS TO SELECT: Soft woods (bass wood, white pine, holly) can be burned to a very dark chocolate brown or black Hard woods allow for more variety in shading and are good for complex shading projects Fine grain woods show very little color change in lines and are generally preferred Light colored woods allow for more variety in color range of burning Dark colored woods result in a richness and depth of tone Avoid burning treated wood because of the preservatives Endgrain does not generally color as well as crossgrain with the burner or with paints SAFETY TIPS AND HELPFUL HINTS: Hold the burner pen the way you hold a pencil Hold the pen so the heat goes up, not back into the pen Do not breathe the smoke. -
