  1. You make me smile too. Very clean cutting. Great work Kirk. Marg
  2. That looks terrific Ralph, can't tell that you had problems at all, well done. Marg
  3. Terrific work Bobby. Marg
  4. That looks good John. No thanks, if I used a torch it would probably catch fire. Marg
  5. Never heard of it before and I don't think I will be cutting any in the foreseeable future if its so hard, you did well though Kevin. Marg
  6. They are terrific. I think I have seen some necklaces from scrabble letters somewhere. Endless possibilities. Marg
  7. On my first big intricate cut I drilled all of the holes but a quarter of the way in cutting it all turned pear shaped and I was left with wood full of holes..........never again. I now drill about 20 holes cut, repeat, I am not going to waste any more wood in that way again. We all learn by our mistakes. I have also learnt to cut the hardest part first, then if it turns pear shaped in a hurry then I have not wasted a whole heap of time. Marg
  8. Thats great Kris. Marg
  9. What a beautiful going away gift, I am sure it is one they will treasure. Marg

  15. That looks terrific, they will love it. Marg
  16. It is always better to do some practice cuts like straight lines, curves, points etc., before getting back into scrolling, you will soon become bored and want to do something a bit more interesting. But I know what you mean, I had to have time away from my saw once and then kept saying I will scroll tomorrow but a month went past before I said ok lets get this thing started, so out I went, did some practicing and enjoyed myself more than before. Marg
  17. Welcome to the Village John. I love your Christmas trees and ornaments, well done. Marg
  18. Welcome to the Village Fran. Maybe next time do a simpler pattern and finish it sooner. Just kidding, we all work at our own pace and life gets in the way sometimes, the trick is to just enjoy what your doing. Marg
  19. Welcome to the Village, Michael and Snickers. Snickers sounds like a very good workshop manager maybe you could show us a photo of him sometime. Marg
