The Blois goblet

 

Scroll saw fretwork six sided goblet

   This is a very decorative six sided goblet. I have restored a very old French pattern to obtain this. I have changed the mounting method to make it very easy. Assembling the goblet is now remarkably simple: the sides of the goblet encase with precision in the floor slots in the precise angle they need. Once the six sides are encased they are glued and all the slots are covered with a piece of wood.

   This goblet can be made in any desired size scaling the pattern and using the corresponding wood width. This table gives some examples of measures of the goblet:

 

  Goblet height Goblet diameter
1/4 in. wood 10,2 in. 12,7 in.
6 mm. wood 24,6 cm. 30,4 cm
1/8 in. wood 5,1 in. 6,3 in.
3 mm. wood 12,3 cm. 15,2 cm.
8 mm. wood 32,8 cm. 40,5 cm.

 Please note that this pattern is registered and copyrighted. If you would like to have it I offer it for 8 € plus shipping. The pattern is computer made, which provides total precision, and nicely printed for convenient scrolling. Click here to buy this pattern. Write me to info@finescrollsaw.com for any questions.
