  1. Hi guys. I haven't been here for a while. I may have missed something. Do any of you know if Travis answered my post of last August? I said that I could find no access to the Old Gallery where I have lots of projects pictured. Is it gone for good? Or can we still find it? If so, how?
  2. I used to be able to access it by clicking on "more" at top of main page. Now all it gives me is "calendar".
  3. Hi folks. I haven't been here for a while,so I may have missed something. What happened to the Old Gallery? I have a lot of stuff on there, but can't seem to access it. I know that Travis said a long time ago that the pics would eventually be transferred to the New Gallery. Is this what is happening and the reason it can't be accessed?
  4. Just for fun.
  5. A variation of this , with a hygrometer instead of a clock, can be seen in the new pics on the home section.
  6. I had problems with the upload. Check Blue jay Retry above.

  8. I deleted my upload on BlueJay. Camera problem. Will try again later.

  10. This was made for a friend. It is 24" in length.
  11. Found it, if you want to make my coin cutting jig. Go to "General Scroll Sawing" on the forum. Type in: "Coin Cutting" in the search box.(Asterisks not necessary). Scroll down to "Coin Cutting" and click or double click. My directions are in the 14th reply(probably on p.2)
  12. You didn't say what blades you used. I've read numerous articles saying that you can use regular skip tooth or crown tooth blades, but don't even try. Make sure you use metal cutting blades. They're inexpensive, cut much better, and you can use smaller blades like 2/0 and 3/0. The cutting is much neater and you won't break as many of them. I posted somewhere on this forum how to make a coin cutting jig that works really well. It's essential to have an efficient jig to hold the coins.
