  1. Very top notch spiral work here.good for you! With spirals your way more part of the process than with straight blades.Good show mate!
  2. Gary these are hitting home to me and make me want to quit work just tom knock some of these out.Real fine job you've done here
  3. Easters coming so you'll be just in time to hide some rabbit eggs in it!Looks good buddy buddy!
  4. I know the feeling DAN,Just a few pennys more for some quality steel or better would be nice,The helicoil has fixed a lot of things for me ,wonder if they have them that small.I am thrilled to hear someone used lubreplate or anti seize compound .i had a giant can of it when i lost everything in 2006.i've been useing grease but the anti seize would have been much better but i forgot about it.Great tip and trick here.
  5. It's a real treat to see the round frame and dog all in one connected piece.I had to look at it twice to make sure thats what i was seeing for the first time and love it!
  6. very very striking pattern .Quality controlled cutting high detail and excellant shadows By far of the religious patterns this one ranks in the top three,you cut the money changers on the money!
  7. you have'nt lost your touch DONR! I barely remember him but the name rings a bell!
  8. Interesting ,i just use what i have and relearn the blade quirks !
  9. well i'll be doggoned
  10. ditto on the first one,lookin good!
  11. Mr great idea man ,this will git it ! Great thought went into patterning this one SMITTY!
  12. Lilmike must have dreamed about this one because he definitely cut it right,Good show mate!
  13. cool info ,THANKS !
  14. arr my wifi is shuting down too much tonight to watch arr!
  15. thanks marge ,richard an dan,this ones sweet tight as a drum .all three were used but this is the best of the lot.BUT i did find a problem with this one that i havent had on the other two..and it just happens to be the bearing i cant get out .Oh well live an learn,thought i checked it real good but for the 120 mile round trip it was worth it to get it with a minor flaw.. If i could get grease in the bearing it would last a long time.I have a hypodermic syringe thats used for exact placement of axle grease .i had it 10 20 years as i knew i would need it someday..Long wait huh
  16. Thanks for looking BOB HANS AN ROLY we all love our toys,lol
  17. Good morning RON Yeah i got the bed back,well saw in me back ,lol.It's a shame to have ALL the toys and can't play with them.One day soon i'll load up the tables outside and post a picture of my shop in the garden.it's overwhelming..I cring looking at all the work our loyal members do and i can't indulge..you know the saw sharpener will find it's use someday as i sharpened all the blades i have .i also bought the drill doctor years and years ago.and am thoroughly impressed with it ..It in seconds leaves your drill bits razor sharp and same way as the saw sharpener it uses a tile diamond blade to do the job.I highly recommend this prodict to anyone.Now this is one you can make a few bucks with from your friends drill bits.
  18. Makes me smile to see this sign of choice you've done for a close friend.I play lots of musical instruments and can appreciate this one immensely Great cutting skills one this piece too!
  19. I to feel your pain ,BUT something always good comes from something bad,Blessings are on their way my friend ,Give thanks!
  20. GOT THIS FROM HARBOR FREIGHT FOR $32.00 Was given a coupon in line waiting to check out from a customer i was humoring with jokes.The saw sharpener is not the best in the world and i took mine apart as it needed greaseing to work better .there's play in the mechanizms and fine finish work or presision work is not gooing to happen.BUT it gets the job done once you figure out ow to use it and work with the idio idiosyncrasy it has.It uses a diamond tile saw blade for carbite blade tooths and a stone for non carbides blades..I working on learning to do every other tooth angle cut on my 10" an 12" blades..Useing a allen key and wrenchs slows down the process of getting things done quickly ,so i may change to thumb screws or tee handle bolts .thats one of the biggest draw backs of it so far.Just to grease the two rails the motor slides on took an hour and was like not fun at all to many screws washers etc. to deal with.But now it's done for ever .
  21. The hawk looks like a scroll saw i had that was no good .but i hear good things about hawks.
  22. Friends counrtymen and scrollers,lol i wanted to try the hegner but would have to wait to long to save the money .i'm very happy with the dw788 so i'll stick with whats been good to me.LARRY,WILSONS WOODWORKING,OLD HUDSON, ROB ROY, PHANTOM SCROLLER I CAN'T SEE YOU ,BOB SCROLL DOUG FISH AND THE INFAMOUS SPARKEY THANKS FOR THE KIND WORDS..it's great to have riends like you to keep me in spirits.Best friends i ever had !!!
  23. Thanks SULLY RON AN JIM I'm so tired and have to eat late at night when i get home.Everydays differant so my scrolling time will come again ,i'm prepared .I forgot to show the picture of the circular saw blade sharpener i got a while ago to.
  24. Howdy scrollers ,no time to scroll as work is swamping my time.I" found a type two dewalt 788 in craigs list for 250.00.I had to drive 6o mile one way but it was none stop most of the way Very clean saw .He said he used it twice .Man is this saw tight .The blade tention numbers don't even get to 1 as it's so tight from being new.This is my trird dewalt ,the first two were type 1 and this is a type 2.
  25. Usually its something simple but figureing it out is the problem.Looks like our friendly helpful members hit the nail on the head again.
