    Hi robbert: Well done I would never use that as a real birdcage though If a bird were to poop inside this cage, I think I would have that bird for lunch Thanks for sharing your work Fab4

    Hi Kevin: Feel your pain, brother I think we all go through the same scenario when it comes to "custom designing" It's a learning curve that you learn real fast. Once I tell and explain to the customer why I want a deposit, they fully understand and don't go crazy on me for wanting it. I get the same response from everyone. "Oh, I would never do that" to which I reply "I know you would never do that but I still want a deposit". Most of them laugh at that statement which is good because it keeps us all in line. Keep up the great work, Kevin It will payoff someday Thanks for showing us your work Fab4

    I tend to be at the saw for long periods of time When I stand I use the foot pedal When I sit I use the on/off switch. Bottom line - Whatever works for you - do it Fab4

    Hi Fish: Sticky situation you're in I see When I ran into this problem, I used a small torch and gently ran it over the piece with the tape. You have to do it fast or you will have a nice charred look to your design. Just enough to warm up the tape then it just rolls off your piece. Similar method as Phantom Scroller (Roly) I put clear packing tape on the wood, then use the dollar store glue sticks and apply it to both the tape and the back of the pattern then another row of tape on top of the pattern. This keeps everything together in case I miss a spot or two with the glue. and lubricates the blade at the same time Peels off nice once done. This method works for me. Good luck Fab4

    Hi Roly: After looking at your picture with your mask on, I couldn't resist on trying my pattern making skills How did I do? Fab4 Actually, I cannot tell a lie This pattern was done for me a few years ago to add to my Darth Vader collection I'm still at the learning stage for pattern making. But if I would make the pattern this is what I would have done

    Being somewhat new at this at the time I bought my first table saw, I decided to build a cassette holder. Cutting the 2" X 4"X 1/4" pieces for the shelves with the radio blaring the background. This was a very monotonous chore, but the music was good so I was rockin' until the one cut went in crooked. The piece jammed between the fence and the blade. Went to turn the saw off but I was too late,That jammed piece came flying back at me and hit me in the stomach. This took maybe 3 seconds but took years off my life Other than having a welt on my stomach no other damage was done This is when I realized how fast things happen. Learned a lesson that day and still know today how much it hurt and how fast it happened. Fab4 Oh yeah, I still listen to music in the shop but it's at a "normal" listening mode - The only rockin' I do now is when I sit in my chair

    After reading Gator's thread about his accident in the shop, I thought it would be interesting to find out about other close calls we had in the shop. Please share any unpleasant mishaps you encountered. This may help someone else down the line. OR (let me rephrase my comment) If you did something stupid in the shop and want to share that experience please post your story. Thanks Fab4
