Not much of a football fan myself, but my wife and I work with a Patriot fanatic (fortunately his son and daughter are full grown or I think he would have named them both Tom Brady).
During the first 3 quarters of the game we kept saying “John is going to be miserable to work with”, then during the 4th quarter we wondered if we should have sent him oxygen….
So I made this for him…. 2 pieces of 1/8” bb painted with the Krylon metallic paint and construction paper sandwiched between layers for color…
The pattern is a scroll saw pattern from Steve Good (http://scrollsawworkshop.blogspot.com/), probably the best woodworking site on the internet. Steve is the most dedicated and loyal scroller out there… I’ve made a bunch of his projects..(but in the interest of full disclosure, I did cut this one on the laser:( )

Tell John I said, “Go Pats!” If I had sons they may have been named Tom…
Awesome project! I’m envious of John! Too bad I don’t have a scroll saw or a laser cutter.

At first glance I thought it read “Superbowl Cheats”... ahh the minds eye reads what it wants to. I can’t complain, I made a few dollars off their win… Nice gift though, you’re pretty nice co-worker for making that. Hopefully you can make me a Redskins one next year…. ha!
