TEKNIK SCROLL UNTUK PEMBUATAN PRODUK INTERIOR

Abstract

In the world of crafts, especially wood craft, some techniques have been known to create
a work of art such as carving, lathing, scrolling, etc. Scroll technique is the work of wood craft
production using scrolling tools such as scrollsaw, which is a saw with small ribbon powered by
electricity. The tool has the specifications of cutting perpendicular, oblique, straight, and curved
positions. This device is usually used as a tool to make holes in the process of wood carving
(krawangan), or to cut the carving edge. In addition, scroll saw is usually used to make puzzle
(education props / toys), and letters.
With its specifications, scrollsaw can be explored further by making it as a major tool in the
manufacture of wood craft art, such as interior elements. Our preliminary research proved that
the tool can be used as the main tool for the manufacture of wood craftsmanship products
(decorative masks) that is unique and distinctive. So in this study we try scroll technique for the
manufacture of some products for interior elements, such as mirrors, wall clocks, table / wall
lamps, and the flowerpots. The manufacturing process consists of some stages such as
explorating, designing, embodying, and evaluating. By exploring the scroll technique, planks of
wood that are cut will produce a curved piece and form a small square field. If the blades are
arranged with the arrangement that is designed with a particular composition, they will bear a
certain distinctive and unique motive form in their field surface. The product of the interior
elements will have distinctiveness, uniqueness, and attractiveness of their own.
Scroll technique can be developed for the manufacture of art craft products because the
scrollsaw is easy enough to use. Therefore, this scroll technique can be used as a new job
opportunity for people who want to be engaged in it to reduce the number of unemployed
people. Being creative with the scroll technique can be engaged professionally or just as a
hobby for works of art.
