  1. Nicely done and well displayed. You seem to have better luck with luan than I do.
  2. Very nicely done and excellently framed.
  3. I have found that it makes the floor of my shop softer and also insulates.
  4. Beautiful work as usual from you.
  5. You are right, that piece of wood was meant for that cutting. Nice job.
  6. You did Grandpa's pattern proud.

    I don't think your grandson will think it is anything but perfect and will have a great time with it. Well done!
  8. Very well done and no one would believe that you are a beginner. I'll bet your son will do well in that class.
  9. Welcome Loren. This is an excellent site for all the help that you might want and maybe even some you don't want.
  10. You surely believe in challenging your customers. Excellent work.
  11. I like that. I've also found that color can be a help for backing.
  12. Well done.
  13. You might want to check at Lowes, HD or your local lumber yard to see about ordering some BB in 5x5 sheets. I get it for $25 and have them cut it in half so I can transport it.
  14. I am jealous as my caregiving duties have kept me hopping 24/7 for the last few weeks. Not even sure I could find my way to the shop. Do manage to get on here for a visit before the daily activity begins.
  15. I would think a #9 would be too aggressive for that cutting. I use a #3 or #1 when doing that style cutting and very seldom have any breakage.
  16. Great job. That should earn you a glass of champagne.
  17. Beautiful cutting of a great saying. I really like your choice of wood and backer.
  18. Beautiful work.
  19. Nice work. You will want to use the foot pedal and seal the controls on top as the DW has a nasty habit of getting dust in the controls.
  20. Roly, the Free4all forum was transferred over to Scroll Saw Woodworking and Crafts site although they are having a lot of difficulty and don't appear to be interested in fixing the problems.
  21. Masterful job of personalizing the puzzle.
  22. Very nice work. Nice finishing. What kind of wood are you using?
  23. My go to blades are FDUR #1,3,5. I have some spirals but despise them and only get them out for large projects. The one piece of advice that I give to new scrollers is to make sure you always feed the work directly into the blade without sideways pressure.
  24. I have made a lot of trivets over the years and prefer a 5/8" thickness in hardwood. I have finished mine with mineral oil. Just dip and let drip dry then buff out with a brown paper bag. Have one on my table that has been in use for years with no problems.
  25. Nice job. I have done the navy and marine ones but have 7 more ordered from all branches.
