  1. The Mill was cut from 3mil. marine ply and I used a 2/0 crown tooth blade. That was the 2nd time that I had done the Mill and both times I used that type of blade. I have practised with a spiral blade but I really hate the fuzzies they leave, it would take me longer to sand than it would to cut. But as they say each to his own. Marg
  2. I have decided to do name ornaments for the young ones and named keyrings for the older ones as stocking fillers. Thanks Steve Goode your a life saver LOL LOL Marg By the way Christine don't worry about circles I have trouble with straight lines, circles are a breeze. LOL
  3. Sorry it's taken me awhile to get back but i've been in bed for a week with the flu. Still a bit sluggish but getting back to normal slowly. Anyway here are the photos I promised you.
  4. Thanks Travis. I'm sorry its taken so long to get back to you but I caught a really bad dose of the flu and was in bed for a week. Still a bit sluggish but thankfully on the mend. Now my next problem 'How do I get my little Wombat from your reply to my profile, and add it to the avatar section?' Sorry but when it comes to computers they still do not make them simplar enough for me. By the way I like the paler one myself so I will go with that one thanks. Sorry to be a bit of a pain. Marg
  5. Hi Travis. Can you adjust my little Aussie Wombat friend that I would like as my avatar please. Much appreciated. Marg
  6. The only thing on my saw right now is a dust cover and it will probably be there for a while longer. Tooooooo cold to go out into the garage. Marg
  7. I forgot to say that I'm in Australia, so its winter here now. My 6 months in the garage have been great and its even better to say that none of the work was for me. They have been orders from friends and friends of friends who found out that I had retired. My last order was for Jeff Zaffino's Malbry Mill it took me 22 and a half hour from preparing the wood to framing it, I made a couple at the same time just in case. Time well spent. And not a spiral blade in site. Once I can work out what photo is what I will start an album. Tanks for the welcome back, now to catch up on some reading. LOL Marg
  8. Hi everyone. I am finally back. At the beginning of the year I made a resolution to scroll more and print less. Well I certainly did that. I have spent the last 6 months working hard in my garage and have hardly been on the computer. Now that the winter is here I can get back to the computer and catch up with everyone. A lot has changed on the site while I've been away and it all looks great. Looking forward to checking it all out. Marg
  9. I think the site you are thinking of is Steve Good's Scrollsaw Workshop. I think the address is www.scrollsawworkshop.com Marg
  10. I got into scrolling because my husband brought himself a scrollsaw. I asked him how it worked and that was it. I was never off it and he never got on it. That was about 10 years ago and it was a Delta 16in., which I still have but I also have a Dewalt. I retired from school cleaning at the end of last year so I will be able to spend A LOT more time doing what I love. Marg
  11. My resolution is to scroll more and print less. I know I can scroll more because I retired after 24 and half years of cleaning a primary school but print less! Only time will tell. Marg
  12. Hi my name is wombatie and I am from Australia. I am over the moon about another new site because like everyone else my hobby my love and my passion is scrolling. All the best for the site. Yes please enter me in the contest. Thanks a lot. Marg
