  1. Extremely beautiful! Thanks for sharing and God Bless! Spirithorse
  2. Nicely done, Dick! Thanks for sharing and God Bless! Spirithorse
  3. Thank you very much, Charlie, Once again, you did a fine job! God Bless! Spirithorse
  4. Very nice! I'm not sure if I would have used the lines that make it look like a stamp or not. I would have to cut it with-out the lines and see if I like it better that way or if I thought the lines improved the look. Just an observation. You did a fine job with the pattern and the cutting! Thanks for sharing and God Bless! Spirithorse
  5. Hi, Jim, I also like the gunstock and my wife does not care for it. I didn't really compare the backer to the deer head because I liked them both but, now that it has been mentioned, perhaps a lighter backer would have been a better choice. Probably some shade between the buckskin and the antlers so that neither of them are lost in the backer color. God Bless! Spirithorse
  6. I really like it/them also, I like the way the head seems to turn but, that also made me notice on further inspection that one pic must be from the first attempt and the other two pics from the second attempt. All three pics are fantastic! Thanks for sharing and God Bless! Spirithorse
  7. Very nice, Charlie! May I ask you to share the pattern, please? No offense if you want to keep it one of a kind. I have more patterns than I will ever cut but, I just hate to pass up the opportunity to acquire another that seems special to me. God Bless! Spirithorse
  8. Very, very nice, Grampa Jim but, I think she can see right through you! LOL Sorry, I couldn't resist. It is a great cutting and a fantastic gift. God Bless! Spirithorse
  9. Absolutely fantastic work, Tony and I really was impressed with the pattern making skills also! Congratulations on the recent marriage also. Thanks for sharing and God Bless! Spirithorse

  11. Well done! God Bless! Spirithorse
  12. Nicely done! Bruce Lee fans would easily recognize that one! God Bless! Spirithorse
  13. They are both very nice and I am always impressed with nice inlay work. Thanks for sharing and God Bless! Spirithorse
  14. Thanks for sharing, Jesse, Very cute ornament. God Bless! Spirithorser
  15. Fantastic work, Paul! Thank you for the progress pics and the final project. The addition of the feet are great! God Bless! Spirithorse
  16. Hi, Dave! As already stated by many, your inlay work is awe inspiring. I could not even image inlaying all those tiny portions on the sides! Thanks for sharing and God Bless! Spirithorse
  17. Thanks for the reply @Scrappile I did realize the thickness of wood and wasn't questioning your method of cutting. Like I said, I was just trying to wrap my head around the profiles, the pattern design, and how I can make sure to scrutinize my work before making the cuts. Wanted to let you know I was not questioning your way of doing your project. It is beautifully done. God Bless! Spirithorse
  18. Wow! What a creative imagination! Excellent cutting! Thanks for sharing and God Bless! Spirithorse
  19. Hi, Linda, I still like the blue painters tape and 3m77 spray glue but, temperature and humidity makes a huge difference. Spray the glue as think as possible while still getting complete coverage and let the glue tack up for about 60 seconds or so but, make sure the wood and the can of glue are both warm. If it is cold and damp here, I take the wood and glue can into the house to come to room temperature and then glue it up in the shop. (I'm frugal, I won't heat the shop just to warm up the can of glue! LOL) Hopefully one of the tips you got will work out so you know what works best for you. God Bless! Spirithorse
  20. Looks great, Paul! I don't know what I would have done if I had to look forward to an extra 4 hours of cutting or just use what I had already cut. I think I would do as you chose to do and re-cut because every time I looked at it, I would notice and regret it if I had not re-cut. I'm trying to wrap my head around WHY the profiles won't match if cut as designed. If they had been stack cut, cutting all except the slots, then cut two slots from the top and two from the bottom, would the profiles would have been correct? Fantastic work on a beautiful project! Thanks for the up-dates. God Bless! Spirithorse
  21. Nice pattern, Kris, I think it would have taken me longer to make the pattern and a little less time to cut it but, what is really relevant is it's a good pattern and you cut it well! Thanks for sharing and God Bless! Spirithorse
  22. Beautiful work, Tony, Cutting nearly 60 of the name place markers shows a lot of love and a lot of dedication! Thanks for sharing and God Bless! Spirithorse
  23. Nicely done! Thanks or sharing and God Bless! Spirithorse
  24. Elegant! Well done! Thanks for sharing and God Bless! Spirithorse
