  1. That's different John, but, if it's a cutting of your dog, how come it's for sale? Len
  2. Rob, I love it, but then again, I'm a bike nut. Len
  3. Jerry, the puzzle looks great, what blades do you use to cut it with? Len
  4. Thanks Melanie, you just saved me a lot of typing. Your answer is the same as the one I was going to type, I agree, the safest thing to do is to get on touch with the pattern seller/owner. Len
  5. Congrats Erv, that's another feather in your cap. It's nice that she gave credit to where it belonged, rather than try to keep it to herself. Len
  6. Randy, have you ever tried cutting a Canadian quarter? If you have, is there any difference between the two Canadian or American coins? Is one any harder than the other on blades? I might give this coin cutting thing a try, I'm asking these questions so that I know what coin I should start with the U.S. one or. the Canadian one? Len
  7. Seeing as how you've done nothing wrong, cut the pattern out and enjoy the cutting. If this is really bothering you, then do what Meflick (Melanie) has suggested. If you don't want to go that route, then just forget about it. Len
  8. Another great looking trivet Rob, is Rimu a hardwood? Len
  9. Very nice! Randy, please refresh my memory and tell me what blade you use, to do this type of cutting? Len
  10. Dan, I didn't see anything wrong with the first one you made, but, I'll take your word that this one looks better. I'm a bit surprised that you didn't leave the center tail feather longer, if it was longer it could be cut to a point to help the bird stand. Granted, you'd only want to do that if is was for outdoor use. Len
  11. Nicely done Nathan, I'm sure your co-worker will appreciate you making it for them. Len
  12. Roly, it's a nice looking cutting, I'm sure the recipients will love it. Len
  13. Danny, it's a good looking cutting, but, I do see one small mistake. It should be an easy fix, seeing as how the pieces aren't glued to a backer yet. You've got the wording wrong in the section that says, Thy Will Be Done, In Earth As It Is In Heaven. The part that is wrong, is the In Earth part, it should be On Earth there is a difference. Len
  14. If you purchased it from one site and it carries the branding of another site, then there's something not right. Each site has it's own name or mark, that's the mark or name they are supposed to sell products under. I know that numerous pattern makers sell their patterns to many different retailers, but, usually the retailer sells the patterns with their company name or mark on it, not anothers. Len
  15. I never use tape, all I do, is spray glue to the back of the pattern and apply it to the wood. Clean up has never been an issue for me, I've always wiped my wood projects down with Final Wipe. It removes all traces of oils, glues and dust and preps the wood to be finished. Len
  16. Don, for this type of pattern, you normally cut the black. Cutting the black is what makes the picture, if it wasn't for the black the picture wouldn't show. So, in the future all you have to do, is figure out what will actually show the picture then cut it out. I hope this helps, and that it isn't just more confusing. Len
  17. Iggy, that looks to be a nice cozy corner to scroll in, a box fan and furnace filter would help a lot with dust control. Len
  18. Ralph, it's a beautiful cross, the BLO really made the grain pop. If the two occasions are close enough together, then I think the cross could be a gift to cover both. Len
  19. Two incredibly good looking pieces Delvaughn, I'm sure both will be well received. Len
  20. I've never tried them. Len
  21. It's a very nice cutting Richard, will you be keeping it or will you be selling it? Len
  22. Helmut, I think you should sit in front of your sign board more often, especially, if you end up with result like this. I love it, it's a beautiful bike. This pattern should be a good seller on your new pattern site, when will you be posting it there?? Len
  23. Lovely trivets Rob, they should be good sellers. Len
  24. Don, if you're just starting out in this great hobby, I think you should start out with a flat blade. They are the easiest to use, and you can cut a straight line with them. The stock thickness of the stock, will dictate what size of blade you should use. I would suggest that you do lots of practice cuts, and learn how to turn the wood so that you get nice crisp corners and points. Only after getting used to flat blades and how they cut, you should then try the spiral blades. As to what brand you should use, that's a decision for you to make. I prefer Flying Dutchman brand, but, Olson brand blades are ranked right up there also. Len
  25. Cute little trivet Denny, thanks for letting us know where the pattern came from. I have a complete collection of the CWWC magazine, it's a great pattern resource. Len
