todays work
-
thats quite a box and a half tub4ever nifty idea to do the letter that way.They don't get much better than that!glad to have you back ,you are missed.

as far as i know it's in microsoft word that comes in your computer ,the font is mt script bold.i've looked around for more useabls scrypt but having them already in the micro word makes it easy to just print and go.i think other fonts you have to do one letter at a time cut and paste ?i don't even know what that means cut and paste.in micro word i select the size ,which is 72 color gray 30 or 40 then on the blue boxes i chose the angled one and the bold one next to it and then of course the m t bold scrypt. also threse centering boxes to play with to.I'm not keen on margins but allot can be done in micro word.i just don't know how to find out what all can be done.One of our members in my begining day wowed me with his lettering skills and to this day im fascinated that i can do these letters.i had no idea he was using a computer to lay it all out .i was using paper stencils to show you how illiterite i was not knowing.when i learned the right way i took off.

I DON'T KNOW ABOUT SOFT ,IT TAKES ALOT OF TIME TO CUT AND SLOW.PLYWOOD CUTS MUCH FASTER.i THOUGHT AROMATIC CEDAR WAS A HARDWOOD? WHAT DO I KNOW.I'M NOT HAPPY ABOUT ALL THE PUSHING I NEED TO DO TO CUT IT COMPARED TO OTHER WOODS BUT THE FINISHED PRODUCT IS NICE TO SEE.THANK CLAYTON.YOU MUST BE BUSY YOURSELF?

Looks like you'll have to paint both letters blue and then the colors you like.blue seems to be dominate as one fix.then again you can kilz both letters and then your colors.don't you hate it when that happens,lolyou gotta do what you gotta do,looks like no short cuts here that i can see but maybe some one else will chime in and save the day ,All hope is not lost,hang in there till the artillery gets here.you puzzle pieces look nice and big for little hands.You could also add a flower or some small object to add as decoration to hide the blue also.there's more than one trick to this delema.i'd ll be interesting to see what works for you.i'll check on this often so i can learn something to.

the one show i did EVERYONE commented on the quality of my work.i guess they meant detail?Like you said lots of jewery.chinese stuff.lots of woman stuff,hats dishs(painted).beads,baskets,book authors.Maybe thats why i did $190.00 and nobody out of 10 venders did anything.i gave away what ever they wanted thru the show,litle things.wish i could store up and display like you at a sale.

I've never tryed one but watchs ,face masks and anything else that hinders my scrolling ease is not acceptable to me.i just sit in front of a fan outside ,but when inside i sit next to the a.c. intake with the paper filters and there's no dust .
-
It will never stop!
-
thanks ,it was tough cutting and i'm not used to cutting hard wood so there's lots of over cuts and wobbleies.It was a rush job as the ladys friend wanted to give the plywood version to her friend so she could give it to her teacher .everybodys happy now!

Now here's a problem i'm having.with two computers being used.My pattern computer is my work horse during the day and at night to connect to the village i'm wifi ing across the street in my car on the lap top.The photos of my work are takin with my phone but sometimes they get transferd to the work horse and then i can't send them to the village.This happen today as i did SUE MEY'S story cross in 1" cedar 15" tall.I'll have to flash drive them ? and then to the laptop i guess.never done this but will try.Lets bsee what mtomorrow brings if i don't forget again.oop's i just checked my phone and there is one picture of it in there so i can at least show that till i get the rest.it's one inch cedar cut with a scroll reverse #3 from mikesworkshop.com

009 is a dog the check cashing lady has and this is a surprize for her .her work is to much for her so this should brighten her day a liittle..006 is half of and order that someone wanted today the other half is in 004 .im to slow to remember to take close ups most of the time. 006 is keychains i made today.more things were cut but unfinished today ..004 under the keychains is three wood disc's that a lady puts lolypop cake edables on for sale .she has an order for 50 but wants to see 5 made and how much so here's a sample.better wood and a drill press would make it very nice along with round dowel 1/2" slices to separate the disc top and center disc only have 25 holes in them
