The new saw arrived on Monday,Have it all set up now,when I first tried it it was cutting a bit vicious for me so had to rotate the motor to find that sweet spot.It is taking a bit of getting used to after my old saw ,the low speed of the new one is a lot faster than the low speed on my old saw.Oh well I will just have to practice to get it to do what I want,It is a beautiful saw though & am not sorry I bought it. Cheers Peter

Lovely Marg .I have a lot of horsey people as friends & I know that they would just love that.

Maybe a faulty motor or a broken or disconnected linkage.

That should last you a couple of days Kev. -

Bit the bullet today & ordered a new saw ,a ex21 although down here it is labeled "General", a lot of expense $1100 In Aussie money My old saw was not holding a set speed for me & I was getting fed up with breaking blades trying to push them up through the holes,I think it was the constant bending that caused it.now I wont have to stand on my head to try & find the holes.It should be here in a couple of days so cant wait to set it up & have a whirl on it.Cheers Peter

I think they would be a big hit out here in Aus.

I give mine a going over with 400 grit wet & dry paper,clean off with mineral spirits & I also use talcum powder for the slide factor.

Nicely done, very clean cutting.

No It is not closely related to the true oaks but is the largest of the grevillea family & is native of eastern coastal Australia & has golden -orange bottlebrush like Blooms

Very nice Marg & what a good idea for the chip bags I usually use a cloths peg ,yours look much better & I see you like cheese & onion just like me.

Made this for a family in Western Australia who's daughter has just graduated as a Dr of Science,she graduated yesterday & was presented this by her family.The timber is Australian Silky Oak & is finished with boiled linseed oil & is about 14'' long.

Looks nice Dick,very classy

I agree with Dick I would paint the backer black,I think it would really make the project pop,Very nice work for your first major work.
-
Congratulations to you & your wife Edward ,Both of you are looking good.Cheers Peter
-
I also use a black backer 80% of the time ,I find it makes it stand out much better & easier to read especially on the fine script ones.I also test by using different colours of paper,Dark blue also works well sometimes.Cheers Peter.

Mine is in my new workshop in the backyard next to a window so I can also look out & get some natural light.
