  1. "It was on sale" always seems to work for the other half when they bring that new dress or pair of shoes home
  2. Lovely work

  4. Looks great Mike, wish there was still 86 days to go!
  5. Great work
  6. Good score Cant help you with the wife situation though
  7. Very nice
  8. Looks great Tony
  9. Beautiful work
  10. wow would have been a lot of trial and error in building that, good result though would love to have his workshop too
  11. Must admit I had thoughts of you applying finish to a mushroom when I read the subject title Not sure what could be causing that, but you might find some useful tips here http://woodworking.about.com/od/finishing/p/polyurethane.htm
  12. Something like this might work for you http://www.woodworkingcentreshop.co.uk/ ... l_Kit.html I was lucky enough to find a wooden bar stool with a back that also had a swivel seat on it at a yard sale, so I had the height I needed, support for my back and the swivel made it easier getting onto it. Pine, ply, hardboard, anything cheap is suitable enough to practice on
  13. Looks neat
  14. Great work there Kevin, turned out real nice
  15. The shaving from the cutting can fuse a bit, but if you use tape over the cutting it helps lubricate the blade Refer to this for more info: http://www.thewoodbox.com/data/scrollsaw/scplexglassinfo.htm
  16. Did these emails go out yet? just wanted to make sure mine didnt get eaten by the spam filter
  17. Clever idea Any sign of your saw yet?
  18. Nice work on the puzzles, and congrats on meeting up with the DJs and presenting the wood burnings to them.
  19. Nice work
  20. Maybe he could hook up a hampster wheel to it
  21. I have cut plexiglass/perspex, tagua nut and corian on the scroll saw before. I think the plexiglass would be the better option in this case, although it may be a little thick You could try sandwiching a piece of overhead transparency film (not sure what name you know it as there) between two pieces of ply and cutting that out, that material is thin, yet stiff enough to use for how she wishes to use it.
  22. Wow real nice work Clayton
  23. Very nicely done
  24. Nicely done Kevin
  25. Looks interesting and I can see how you intend it to work and get the up/down motion for the blade, but im far from being an engineer and wouldnt be able to give you anything useful to use. Could you take a look at how the wooden foot powered scroll saw works (you can get plans for that) and see if you can adapt your hand crank one to work in a similar fashion?
