  1. Thank you yes it hurt a little bit
  2. You could scroll bread in the ends to make it a bread basket just a thought.
  3. Thank you kindly
  4. Its the thought that counts Doug I'm fluent in English and Dutch also, so no need to translate.
  5. I had a mishap with the glue it let go on one rear leg one night, I came into the room where I'm assembling it and it was on the floor in a 1000 pieces some broken some just came apart so I lost about 3 days but total about 2 weeks
  6. I think it is absolutely gorgeous, a lot of times we forget that beauty is in the eye of the beholder as much as we would prefer to use our taste of wood fiber, your customer has another vision. But in the end the customer is always right, he who has the gold makes the rules.
  7. Happy birthday Marg, many more and have a great day.
  8. I don't ever remember not having a foot pedal and I don't even sit down to scroll. I used the switch on my saw once when it was brand new I turned it on and put tape over it so saw dust can't get in.
  9. Dan I believe I finished this one around the 24 or 25 of august I'm sure the finished one is on the bragging page or in my gallery
  10. I'll give you a big ATTA BOY on your display and your sales congratulations on a successful day
  11. Sorry it was made from Alder
  12. I just can't let a fellow Canuck fan down, I believe there was a plan in Wood magazine a long time ago just search their index Also if you have a vice it would be simple enough to make up a set of clamps to hold the handle would it not? Go Canucks go
  13. When a fellow woodworker friend of mine announced to me that he had made wedding plans I just didn't believe him, he had lived with the same lady about 15-20 years so I said jokingly "if you get married I'll make the cake", well he stuck me to it but little did he know the secret to this gag was not in the ingredients but in the wording. You see I said "make" not BAKE. So I turned to my trusty lathe and turned out 4 different size bowls and plates a few spindles called a few favours from some ladies to do the decorations and Bob's your uncle (well mine anyways) Hope you get a chuckle out of it as well. .../Hans
  14. Very nice great job
  15. Muy buen trabajo Frank
  16. A word of warning there is a free download of Corel Draw going around its called the latest anyway I checked it out last night and it is loaded with viruses please avoid it.
  17. Oh I understand what your saying now there was 14' of continuous line that I cut that's very interesting Kevin. In reality if you had a 14' board and had to split it would you use a little blade like that?
  18. Hello Martin a big welcome to the village from Mexico I know you'll enjoy Scrolling as I've never met anyone that gave it a serious try not to like it. BUT be careful and be forewarned scrolling is not a hobby its an addiction. Have fun enjoy. .../Hans
  19. I don't see it Kevin where is it?
  20. Dick Dick Dick I am so proud of you. I was hoping you would finish it and you did my friend and with a Bang It is beautiful and something to be proud of. Your grand daughter will love it. Tell me when your ready for your next project I have a few lined up. I'm working on a big Cathedral right now probably be another week or so.
  21. thanks every body for your compliments, greatly appreciated .../Hans
  22. You can't fix stupid but you can adjust it a little bit.... with a 2X4 on the back of the head
  23. Now that last picture looks like a heart attach on a plate.
  24. For blueish purple I use mineral oil, rubbing alcohol and fresh blueberries smushed up into juice, screen it so you don't have chunks in it, the oil is for making it stick and the alcohol for fast drying and the berries well you can figure that one out. I don't have a set measurement I just mix it together and and try it on a piece of wood like the one I want to put it on. I hate painting wood but I don't mind doing it the natural way. I just finished a piece and I used cranberries and blackberries together came out kind of maroon which was ok as it was a wine holder. Give it a try and see if you like it.
