  1. My daughter loves giraffes too. Your cutting came out great! She's going to love it. Barry
  2. I built that same stand for my Craftsman a few years ago. It works great and is a super design. The cuttings look great. I have found that as a rule, we are always are own worst critics. The reason of course is because only we know exactly what our finished project was supposed to look like. Everyone else thinks the piece is amazing, but I of course know where the flaws are. The trick is to never tell anyone.. Barry
  3. Great job Dick. Glad the customer loved it and apparently, even though the originals weren't exactly what she was looking for, she recognized your talent and knew you would deliver. Barry
  4. Nice work on both of these. They look terrific. Barry
  5. That's a great cut from a great pattern Barry
  6. I'm with Ron. I use spray on poly for fretwork and wipe on poly for solid projects. A bunch of light coats, sanding between each usually does the trick. Barry
  7. I like using a #2R or in Olson's case I think it's a #1R for smaller tighter cuts. I use 2/0 spirals for portrait work with lots of non-straight lines like people and animal portraits. I use the reverse blades for things like car portraits and stuff with more straight lines Barry
  8. Unless Woodcraft started selling them by the gross or you are just looking for a small pack to try, I would suggest buying them in larger quantity from either Mike's Workshop for the Flying Dutchman blades, or Sloan's for the Olson blades. They are much less expensive when purchased in bulk. Barry
  9. Soak them in mineral spirits and then if possible, give the glued surface a light wipe with a soft cloth also soaked in the mineral spirits. Once the adhesive is gone, just let them dry very well and finish as normal. Barry
  10. It looks great Dan. Nice work. Barry
  11. Nice job on that, it looks great. Barry
  12. Great job DW. Looks awesome. Barry
  13. The reverse blades are great because the teeth pointing up on the bottom of the blade help remove any fuzzies left over from the downstroke. If 1/4 inch is what you normally cut you should have no problem with the blades. Just remember, alot of how well a blade works for you will be determined by your cutting style rather than which blade. Barry
  14. Great job Kevin! Glad to see you scrolling. Barry
  15. I agree with Dick, it's a shame to keep these in a box. You did a great job Kevin. Barry
  16. Excellent job! I can see why she loves it! BArry
  17. It's starting out looking terrific. I've been wanting to order the plans for one of these as some point. Barry
  18. I found the same thing with some of the FD blades. I don't have that problem with the Ultra Reverse but with many of the others I had the exact same problem. Barry
  19. Love those Disney characters. You did a great job on all of these. Barry
  20. Excellent job on these. The really capture the essence of each of these musicians. Barry
  21. That turned out great. You did a terrific job. Barry
  22. Great job on this bowl, can't wait to see more. Barry
  23. It looks great and since it's not a competition for speed, I would say 3 hours seems fine. Looks like there were some delicate cuts in it as well. Nice job. Barry
  24. Terrific job on all of those Kevin. You have some great talent. Barry
  25. They look great. Nice job. Barry
