Plaque

Some of us guys usually go to Drummond Island, Michigan to do some perch fishing in the fall.

I had the biggest perch last year and got some lottery tickets but didn’t do very well on the scratch offs.

So this year I have to buy the lottery ticket and I thought I would make up and cut out this plaque for the biggest perch caught also.

Sweet good job……..you spelt perch wrong….lol made ya look!

Nice work Larry !!!!

Nice work Larry. That’s a pretty cool idea. You guys just gonna sign it for the year you won it and pass it around to the new winner each year or make a new one each time. Might be a really cool time capsule type piece if it was a travelling trophy.

Nice! Is there a backer board to create the “silhouette”? Or is that part of the board itself you painted?

I doubt that I’ll make one every year. Other than my son. The other guys don’t know that I’ve made the plaque yet. 

If the winner wants to make it a traveling trophy? That’s fine with me.

You Sir, are a master for sure. I really like projects like this, that use a backing plate, it really makes it stand out.

Thank you.

I really enjoyed laying it out and cutting it.

Now I want a scroll saw!

It’s one of the tools, that is very relaxing. There are so many different types of projects you can do, puzzles, signs, ornaments, toys, and many others.  And one big bonus, you don’t have to worry about cutting a finger off.

Now that I have a good miter saw I’d like to find a nice tablesaw, but a scroll saw is on the short list…
