    Jim,

    Maybe the following info will same you some zeroxing:

    The original plans come from Meisel Hardware Specialties, www.meiselwoodhobby.com, "Shadow Box Nativity Plan", item # w1392, $11.99.

    I made my first one some 10 years ago and they have always made a big hit, wheither it be a present or something I sold. Plans were to size and very good (don't remember any errors in them, quite unusual for those type plans).

    One thing that many of the people do is to leave the shadow box up all year round replacing the Christmas stuff with other stuff during the year. Something like a "box for all seasons".

    Regards, Joe

    Guys,

    Thanks for all the kind reviews!

    I've posted some PDF files in the plans section which should work as good scroll saw templates if you print them full size on 8.5" x 11" paper.

    If you guys haven't discovered it already, I've had really good luck with a prodcut from 3M referred to as re-positionable glue stick. I find it at Staples, and I find it much easier to use than the spray-on adhesive when scroll sawing.
