  2. Thanks for the kind words
  3. I dont use one (I use my photo editing programs for this) so, unfortunately, I can not answer this one for you, but I think rapid sizer (i think it is called) is used by a number of folks. Hopefully someone will come along that will have a good answer for you. If I may inquire, why do you want a resizer? Do you plan on cutting things larger than the patterns are set for or smaller? But if you look in this section of the forums viewforum.php?f=19 you will find a few threads concerning this topic to some degree or another. Good luck.
  4. Ok the past few months have been insane for me and I still have a busy month maybe two ahead of me. Any way this is what I managed to get made over the last couple of weeks. All the patterns are mine except the elvis pattern I don't remember who made that pattern of the top of my head. Any way enjoy. Made this one for my Brother Made this one for for my brothers daughter Made this one for my Brothers Son (probably would be best to hang this one with out the frame. http://www.scrollsawvillage.com/gallery ... p?pid=6373 Made this one for my Dad http://www.scrollsawvillage.com/gallery ... p?pid=6372 Made this one for my Sister-in-law http://www.scrollsawvillage.com/gallery ... p?pid=6371 Made this one for my Brother in law (this is my fav,) http://www.scrollsawvillage.com/gallery ... p?pid=6370 Made this one for my Aunt and Uncle (sorry I don't recall who made this pattern) http://www.scrollsawvillage.com/gallery ... p?pid=6369 Let me know what you all think of them.

  5. Got some picts of it? We do like our pictures here
  6. I can not speak about the Titan saw, but as far as the movement when you are trying to cut, you want the blade tension tighter not lower. When you tighten the blade you should be able to pluck the blade with your finger and get a sound that is almost like a musical note. The bolt holding the safety guard take to your local hardware store and find one that is long enough to ensure everything is secure.
  7. Scroller63, Welcome to the Village, can't wait to see some of your work. Glad you found us.
  8. Great cutting. Almost makes me want to try some of the ones I have been holding off

    I have an old high school friend who just lost her little dog Roxy. This loss, as you can imagin, has made her family very sad, specially her kids. So I did this cutting for her and I am mailing it out today. Pattern, cutting, and frame were all made by myself. by myself. Cutting is on 1/4" BB Ply and finished with 6 very light coats of a simi-gloss spray poly, frame is made of 3/4" Birch ply finished with a flat black spray paint (used as a primer) and a gloss black enamel. Questions and comments are always welcome. Enjoy
  13. Ken welcome to the Village. Where are you in Florida? I live in Florida myself up in the panhandle about 40 min from Pensacola
  14. My little band saw is not accurate enough for the work i would need to cut my stock down
  15. That is cool once i can find a new tablesaw i am going to have to try something like that
  16. I have already done that. The key to this is me getting the extra $$'s
  17. I have been thinking about getting this same one. I think I may get it as soon as I have the extra $$'s to spend.
  18. That sucks big time
  19. I, unfortunatly, have to work. but i hope everyone enjoys the holiday.

  23. flatfoot welcome to the village we are so glad you found us. As far as the programs go I use photoshop 7.0 but I would suggest GIMP to you which is free to download.
