  1. Dan, that is a dandy welcome sign, it sure is large enough not to miss. With a welcome sign that large, everybody will be dropping by. I see something in your shop that everyone should have in theirs', the recliner is a nice touch. Len
  2. Les, it look nice, you could always apply a coating of Danish Oil to it. If you were to do it in the basement, you wouldn't smell it throughout the house. Len
  3. Are you sure you don't mean, 'Now You know it's Clares' room'', instead of ''Now You know it's Clair's room''? You will get into trouble with your daughter or daughter in law, if you spell the little one's name the wrong way. I don't know why, but mother's have a tendency of getting upset over little things like that. Len
  4. Nice looking anchors Todd, and that sure was a big storm for you guys. Thankfully, it missed us altogether, we already have lots of it. I might be over your way this summer on my bike, if I am I'll be sure to look you up. It's been over twenty five years since I've been to the Rock, I look forward to touring your province for about a month or so. Len
  5. OMG Michael, you did a super job cutting this one out, it sure is an outstanding piece. Len
  6. Chris, I like this style of cutting, but I'm wondering if you plan to paint the edges of the plain wood where it can be seen? Len
  7. Kris, you have yourself another masterpiece here, this is an outstanding cutting. Len

    Very nice. Len
  9. Chris, I like the cutting, but I don't much care for the American flag in the background. Seeing as how they were such a famous British group, I think that is the flag that should be in the background. I have no issue with the U.S. flag, but I just don't think it's the one to use as a backing for this cutting. Yes, I understand it was the U.S. invasion of the Beatles, but they were still British.

  10. I like it, I should cut one to match my Harley. I have a 1200cc Sportster, plus a 2013 1400cc Suzuki Intruder with only 13000kms on it. I plan to put a lot of miles on the Suzuki this coming summer,I hope o do a fair amount of touring Canada. And since the Suzuki is so much more dependable then the Harley, it's the bike I'll be using. The Harley is to loud to ride all day long, I would have to wear hearing protection if I rode it all day long. You can hear the Suzuki coming from about a 1/4 mile away,but you'll hear the Harley from about 3 miles away. You might think I'm bs'ing about that, I'm not, it is that loud.I t is that loud for a reason, not just because I like it that loud. Len
  11. I wear hearing protection all the time my machines and saws are running,I wear the hearing muff type of protection plus the foam plug type. I do have a pair of muffs that I can listen to music through, I don't wear them. Personally, I don't see any sense in wearing hearing protection that makes a noise. If I wanted to hear a noise, I would listen to my machinery and saws. I like quiet, I like to be able to hear myself think. Plus, I think your defeating the purpose of wearing hearing protection, if the hearing protection makes a noise. Listening to music through you hearing protection, is about the same as listening to a machine whine. Len
  12. Jim, this is going to seem like a silly solution to your problem, but I've done it in the past. I don't like using water based finishes, never have and probably never will. But when I was into cutting and selling a lot of my work, I needed a way to spray finish products on my projects. It gets very cold here in the winter time, and you don't use spray finishes here then. So what I finally decided to use, was a tent. One that I could close up solid with a zipper and a flap, and one that would keep the fumes inside of itself. I had a light on an extension cord, so that I could see what I was doing. And I had a small table set up in the tent, I usually used hooks to hang anything I sprayed up in the tent. Doing this worked great for me, it definitely kept the fumes from being to strong in the house. Actually, you could hardly smell any thing outside the tent, I think I was smelling the fumes off of my clothing. Len
  13. Thanks Kevin, cool video. Len
  14. Pete, I still don't understand, so what if it has to travel 2400kms. Unless you mean you didn't have time to apply a finish, because you were in a hurry to get on the go? Len
  15. Monti, that's a great use of scrap wood, they should be good sellers for you. Len
  16. Nice save Rob, I can't see where it was broken, it sure does look nice. Len
  17. Nicely done Pete, I'm sure your nephews will love them. Len
  18. Nicely done Edward, it looks fantastic with the colorful NFL painted red like that. Len

    Wayne, it's different, and it's looks nice. Len
  20. Nicely done Jeff, I love these country scene cuttings. Len
  21. Nicely done Gary, who doesn't like the Blues Brothers? Len
  22. Nicely cut Jeff, and the paint job is outstanding, it really does make the cuttings look so much nicer. Len
  23. Pete, nice looking puzzles, but I think the bunny would chase the bobcat at the size they are. Len
  24. Nicely done Chris, it looks fantastic. Welcome to the Village, I look forward to viewing more of your work. And I'm sure there's a proper name for this type of scrolling, but I don't think it is called layering. If it is, then layering has changed from what it was once recognized as in the scrolling world. Layering is when you actually cut numerous layers, and stack them on top of each other to make a scene/picture. I've seen this type of cutting before, but the pieces were cut at an angle. They were cut that way,so that they could be moved forwards or back into the scene. It looks as if you cut your pieces at 90*, how do they stay in place with cutting them that way? Len
  25. Nicely done Monti, I like how the tree of life pattern was used to make it. Len
