129 - Jesus hominum salvator cross

This is a very attractive cross ornamented with floral motives. The elegant base contains the letters "JHS", which stand for "Jesus hominum salvator". In Latin these words mean "Jesus, savior of mankind". The pattern is based in an old French 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 cross depending on the wood thickness you use:

Height Width
1/4 and 3/16 in. wood 20,9 in. 9,3 in.
6 and 3 mm wood 50 cm 22.3 cm

Please note that this pattern is registered and copyrighted. If you would like to have it I offer it for 12 € 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.
