| Creative Woodworks & Crafts, we're
Iways looking for new talent
in the realm of pattern artistry
Therefore, it was a real pleasure for us to dis-
cover Rob Borkowski right in our own “back-
yard” of Northwestern New Jersey, We were
introduced ta Rob by our graphic artist. Kelly
Alberison, Rob and Kelly are lifelong friends
who met at age three and grew up in the
same neighborhood, Kelly says “Rob has

Rob’s original assignment was to illustrate
a few select projects in each issue of Creative
Woodworks & Crafts. Some samples of his
illustrations are shown on the pages of this
article (see dragon below). After a while, Rob
also began to design his own serall saw pat-
terns, and over the past year he has greatly
impressed us with his talent and creative
imagination.
Rob's first series of about ten patterns was
purchased {in rough form) by Scroller Ltd.
Many of these patterns were of wizards.
dragons, and similar molifs. Subsequent!

special collector's edition, Scral! World.
Judging by the success of Scroll! World at the
newsstind, people really took to this pattern!
Buoyed up by the success of his Scroll
World pattern, Rob stepped up his efforts
and began producing a wide array of great
patterns. Another one of Rob's patterns, ‘The
Wizard Clock, found its way onto the
cover of the February, 1998 isste of
Creative Woodworks & Crafts. He
also began spending mare

All of the wooden pieces for this project ean be cut out
of one scroll saw blank from Heritage Building
Supplies. We have found thal these blanks are terrific
for scrofl saw projects which require wider widths of
materials, Each glued-up panel is planed and sanded
to provide a periect work surface. The 12"-wide blanks
come in different thicknesses: 1/4", 1/2", and 3/4”

No. 2, to the wood blank. Drill holes in the interior
waste areas, then make the interior cuts. Use 1/16"
Dia. and 1/32"-Dia. drill bits for the smaller definition-
line cuts on the deer and antlers. Note: when drilling
the holes, place a scrap piece of wood behind the
project. This will help reduce the splintering which
often occurs where the drill bits exit through the bottom
side of the workpiace
