HI gang, its been a couple years since I have posted. Kinda got side tracked with my other hobbies and work. Mainly work. Anyway, got the saw back out, the dust blown off and hopefully will be chugging out some work soon. Just wanted to drop a note and say hi and warn yall that I'm back lol. Have a great day.

Hi Travis. so far so good. the only problem I have is i cant connect with my mobile device anymore. I was using tapatalk. IT was fine before the switch, so just not sure if its not active yet, or of this software is not compatible. please let me know. thanks.

Yes i use spray on flat clear coat. Dont need gloss your just sealing it. Also omly a light coat. Dont spray it thick. After it dries spray your colors and seal when dry. Also dont forget the light sanding on the sealer before painting. If your sealer is smooth your paint will be too.

If the paint was rough when it dried it was to thick or you did not spray even coats. It should be smoth when it dries. Also seal your wood prior to painting unsealed wood when painted tends to let the grains become uneven. Just somthing to think about.

Hey travis please dont delete me, i havnt been on in a while been. Took a break from scrollsawing. Been flying rc planes. Got the saw back out now and need to balance time between the 2 hobbies. As well as funds lol. Ok sorry for the long post just letting ya know im still around. Thanks

The only router bits for dremel (at least in my area) come in a pack of 6 for around 30.00 dollars. That with the price of the table will add up. For about the same amount you can get a router and table combo. I got mine last year at home depot for 99.00. It is a small table as well anf can be clamped to a work bench. I would look at all options before settling on the dremel route. At least that way as you expand you can get other bits for othet projects. Hope this helps some

Nice job

Very nice jib. I like it.

thank you all for the replies. I have started my next project..i'll post pics of it when i get it done. i am slowly getting addicted here.

I havn't posted in quite a while, but I am still making saw dust when time permits. I made this Christmas Bunny for a Christmas present for my mom. This is my third intarsia/segmentation piece I have made. Any critques are welcome. Thanks for looking. Medic

Very Nice DW, I just finished the same piece. I had to turn my around due to a chip out. Tell me, did your eyes go squirrly like mine did while cutting. I had to walk away numerous times and come back after my eyes adjusted. lol

Very Nice. I wouldn't mind doing a couple of those myself. THanks for sharing.

Finished this as a christmas present for my parents. The pattern is by Steve Good.

Thank you mike for posting the snoman intarsia pattern in the library. I have been looking for a simple snowman pattern. This fits the bill perfectly for me as I am new to intarsia/segmentation. Just wanted to say thanks for the pattern.

Kevin, I have a craftsman 16 inch variable speed from sears. I have had it for 3 years now and no porblems. The only thing that wore out was the rubber cushion thing under the tension knob. But it works great. Hope you get a better saw soon. If not let me know and I can ship ya some saw dust to play with. hehehehe . j/k
