    If you give him a haircut he'll look more like the Jerry we all know and love.

    Nice take on our original superheroes. I never realized Metropolis and Gotham City were joined by the Golden Gate Bridge. LOL

    Sounds to me like trying to climb into a cockpit of a fighter jet. I'll stick with my shop stool. I guess it could work for some folks.

    Simple and sweet. I love it.

    Benvenuto nel villaggio.

    Good job. Your puzzle is worth more than the actual car. They got the name right.

    Paul, I'll help declutter your shop and store your bandsaw for you. Just trying to be a nice guy.

    I don't have the guides but bought the stabilizers a few years ago to do bandsaw boxes. Well, the stabilizers are still in the box. I'll have to get them out and give them a try. I saw a demo once and the stabilizers seem to work well. I guess it's time to give them a try. Sorry not much help.

    Nice! Now you need to make another one so the kids can race them. Scroll Saw Woodworking and Crafts magazine has a couple of patterns for a hedgehog and armadillo. I plan to cut some for my grandkids next month. I'm glad you posted a finished product in action.

    I bought some cedar ply but it had a foam core and only cedar on one side. Easy to cut but I don't care much for it as a ply.

    I also bought the 12" Dewalt. Sliding miter, double bevel. I bought the stand for portability and love it.

    Welcome to The Village! We have lots of turner, carver, and painters here. Be sure to show some of your work, even if it's 20 years old.

    Sweet! Here's one of my signs. I hope Jim chimes in and shows his sign.

    Thanks. I bookmarked it. A few years ago I found a site that had free patterns for stained-glass windows. Those looked easy to turn into intarsia but I never tried it. I'll see if I can find it.

    I'm not a dance fan but you did an amazing job on the clock! Awesome!

    ( had to borrow a third thumb but you work is worth it.)

    Where's the pictures??

    I suggest solid wood if you plan to paint it. My experience is if any moisture gets into the plies of the plywood it will delaminate. You could use poplar, but cedar or redwood are also great choices. Like you said, a good primer and paint will be sufficient.

    Welcome to The Viiage Grumps.

    Hi John. This question comes up frequently so you'll hear the best of what works from each of us. I always use wood glue if the backer is wood or some form of a wood product. If the project if framed I just spread a few drops of glue very thin to the project, just enough to hold it in place. No need for more than that. For larger, unframed projects I do the same thing only add a few extra drops in critical places. I uses weights or clamps to hold the backer in place until the glue dries. With practice you'll figure out what the right amount of glue is. I go very light with it. Never had an issue. I did this owl in 2013. It's about 3' tall and 1' wide, with picture matting material, glued with Titebond II. It's still hanging today.

    Vacuums

    Dan replied to oldfa_t's topic in General Scroll Sawing

    If you are not partial to Micro-Mark or Proxxon, DeWalt has a 2 gallon wet/dry vac that would fit under the scroll saw nicely, that is if your saw is on a stand. I don't really know any more about it but Lowe's sells it.
