This is a truly impressive coffer, one of the most beautiful ones
ever produced by the old Italian school of fretwork design.
The pattern is based in
an old Italian design from the beginning of the XX century that I
have entirely reconstructed in the computer. The pattern has been
designed to use 1/4 and 1/8 inches wood or 6 and 3 mm wood. By
scaling the pattern appropriately any other wood thickness can also
be used. These are the dimensions of the coffer depending on the wood
thickness you use:
|
Height |
Width |
Depth |
1/4 and 1/8 in. wood |
9,3 in. |
15,6 in. |
7,4 in. |
6 and 3 mm
wood |
22.4 cm |
37.3 cm |
17.7 cm |
Please note that
this project require some sides to be beveled at 60 degrees. Since
standard scroll saws bevel only up to 45 degrees, you will have to
complete these beveled sides by hand, or using a disc sander in case
you own this advanced equipment.
Please note that this pattern is registered and copyrighted. If you would like to have it I offer it for 9 € plus shipping.
The pattern is computer made, which provides total precision, and nicely printed for convenient scrolling. Please write me to
[email protected] to buy this pattern or for any questions.
