Share some Aloha with some pineapples! Thank you marmak3261 for fixing my paths.
You might need to scale up or down for the slot size depending on the material used. I am using ~ 1/8 in red oak plywood.
I made it score first with draft score, then cut. Using the amazing pegs to hold the board down so it doesn’t shift, then flip the pineapples into the opposite orientation (down to up pineapple) slot, then turn off cut and do a re-score of the other side.
Edit:
4/30/21 updated version that is cut only, no flipping, looks different but I still like it, AND I hated flipping them. pineapple_new_multi.svg.zip (8.9 KB)
Hehe, thanks! Everyone loves em, can’t make them fast enough. I had made that music box and someone said, hey, can you make that pineapple bigger and just give me the pineapple, and I thought… yep! Keep pineapples in the fridge, they are ripe when picked, only get more sour with time. Everyone I know leaves em out for a week as decoration. That is great if you have a miracle berry bush, but mine hasn’t made fruit for 2 years.
Nicce!
Remember the reindeer from a few years ago? Well I made some for my neighbor, and a friend of hers asked If I could make them 12" tall? - “While you watch.”
I actually bookmarked this video when I first saw it on the forum a long time ago. Not sure why really…it’s so strangely bizarre and ludicrous. Well, that was the reason. Perfect time to use it in this thread.
what fun! My mom is going to get a couple of pineapples! Now if we could only “put a lime in a coconut and drink it all up” … ha ha those would be funny centerpieces. thanks for sharing … we have Tropical Fridays at work…which means if I make these…they would stack up out of the way in my desk until next summer…cool! Thanks for sharing. … I need some pink flamingos for my desk…oh man you have me thinking now…whole new way to decorate your desk…and store it.
