  1. I'm glad you're feeling better Kevin. That is a great pattern and cutting. Thanks for posting.
  2. Jim, great start. I like the script font but I would change the positions of the bridges like Jerry suggested. Here's where I would have put the bridges. See the red marks. I would also have made the white space around the script font larger. That makes the script a little more pronounced. Hope this helps.
  3. Yeah, nice job on all of them.
  4. I like it. I'm finishing a toy bread truck now. Yours is much nicer though. Is the body cherry?
  5. Very nice. I'll have to try that one.
  6. I'm not a golfer but I love the plaque. The green backing really sets it off.
  7. I have not cut aluminum but I'm sure it's no trouble. Check with hotshot (aka Randy). He cuts a lot of coins and does some delicate work.
  8. I sit with the table a little below chest height. I should lower the table a little. I also have the table tilted toward me a few degrees.

    Yes, great job on all of them. I really like the one of your uncle and, I assume, your aunt.
  10. Yes lots of catalpa up here. We had two in our yard. Beautiful large flowers in late spring. The wood is very soft and will dent easily. The grain on your board is very nice. I can't wait to see what you turn it into.
  11. Great work Helmut.
  12. I love the way you displayed it. Did you make the pattern for the leaf?
  13. That's real nice Jim. I like the different fonts.
  14. I started thinking more about God today. I'm not sure why.

      What did you do???

  15. Super cool! You sure have the hang of them shells.
  16. Here's an example of intersecting word art. I used Travis' tutorial to figure out how to do it. As for the blade question, I think everyone has their way to figure it out. I use to go through blades a lot but something, not sure what, changed and now they seem to last a lot longer. I know if the blade breaks or doesn't cut I replace it.
  17. Nice pattern and idea for adding the background.
  18. Rob, that came out fantastic! The purpleheart is a great contrast.

    Nice work. I that your pattern?
  20. Fantastic work Ron. It's so clean and has a great finish.
  21. Great project you have going there. As for the font, put the bridges near and parallel to an adjoining line. This seems to hide the break more. Do you think the magnets are strong enough?
  22. Those came out great! Now to save some $$ to buy more wood to make some for my grandkids.
  23. Very excellent!
  24. Paul (Fab4) I think you're on to something.
  25. Take examples of the various types of work done on a scroll saw: fretwork, intarsia, puzzles, etc. If you don't have many examples show some photos of other people's work.
