  1. Lessons learned the hard way ,you learn not to do that again !Just watch in amazement how fast she passes you up.Live and learn,lol Yep, she's on a roll ,scrolling like that at her age first time.
  2. I need to know what size to cut the wood down so i can finish the other sides.This has been very slow cutting for me ,i'm not sure why.I'm going to try some very aggressive blade i haven't used in ages and see if that speeds things up.I want dearly to make some of these.I've lots of finishes to try lots are brand new .Ill post pictures of my stash i've been hoarding years now .I finally have a place to be able to get to them and use them.Practice practice .
  3. Ralph it's 10:p.m. and you made my side split laughing,lol
  4. I'm going to have another stab at this bird house thing.Yeah if i only had some colored wood .that's been a rarity since i started to scroll,Thanks Len!
  5. I've still problems with my new saw .Blades break way way way to soon.I'm used to cutting hours and not breaking one Now it's minutes ???
  6. I'm finding that out quick about knots,lol Thanks
  7. I'm not even sure what thickness woods i should be using.@x4 seems to be too thick to make time scrolling.Maybe i'll try glued up,plywood .That looks great on seashells?
  8. The time spent seems not cost effective in cutting 2" x 4" white wood.And then getting the same shape on all four sides ,more time wasted.
  9. I started out making them in teak but that was slow cutting ,So i switched to white pine 2"x4" and still the cutting took forever.Photo's in bragging rights.
  10. That's true but acceptance works for me!
  11. Try different ways and show us again.top and bottom could be two different colors.
  12. They don't get any sharper than that! Sharp skills utilized well!
  13. I couldn't see the forest thru the trees,And then it popped out.Wish i could have done as nice a job!Very well done
  14. I finally tryed some ,Slow cutting,not my speed so now i need to figure out how too speed it up.Then the doctores office wants some heart stuff
  15. Oh yes they do your so right ,I got the biggest hug too which watered my eyes!
  16. Rattle can spray ,no problems except i wear it for days
  17. The wire wrappings are her work but most of the other things are mine.
  18. I like listening to how others perceive their views of things
  19. Looking at the mini bird house has the wheels turning now long enough.I've lots of small hard wood chunks,scraps,pieces to use.Getting the shapes needed from the ones i've seen i'll need to have a pattern to draw up or work from.What do you think would look better?One solid piece or glued up multi pieces?
  20. Tight detail like this you chose good to do one at a time.Fabulous cutting skills and whoever did the design(you) needs a hand shake too.Marge is correct in her statement good as gold to them.Glad you see you take up such a good cause as this .It's thoroughly rewarding in the end.Good job!
  21. alright ,i'm getting closer to doing some bird house as i see them showing up more and more ,thanks for the push.
  22. Well maybe ,maybe not,lol! :thumbs:
  23. It was a blessing in disguise for sure.I needed that metting more than you know ,Perfect timing ,Thank you Jesus!
  24. Great Gordie! I have seen just a few Noahs Arks since i started scrolling and they always were in the back of my mind to do one,Hope you can show and tell it when you find it !
  25. Yes more than a pleasure Bobby i craved to relate shop to someone here!
