  1. lovely pattern and superb cutting Sasho. Rob Roy
  2. What a bummer Hans, I take it you can't get decent plywood in Mexico???. So, you''ll have to do the back all over again. Better luck this time. Rob Roy.
  3. Beautiful Hans, as usual, but a great shame that the back snapped. Knowing you it will be fixed no doubt. I'll bet the language was choice when it broke. . Rob Roy.
  4. Another nice one Smudger. Keep it up. . Rob Roy.
  5. A lovely selection there Roly, very, very nice. I take it you'll be doing some more for the show. Good luck on the day, not that you'll need it I don't think judging by the quality goods you've got so far. . Rob Roy.
  6. Well done that man. You've been thinking outside several boxes Carl . Rob Roy.
  7. Ah Ha DW, clever, you're thinking outside the box again. That scissors jack looks like it's as old as me, and just as rusty . Rob Roy.
  8. Lovely job as usual DW, but I'm afraid my senior moments last ALL DAY Rob Roy.
  9. Great Idea Dick , go for it. Nothing ventured nothing gained. If they are all as good as your picture shows, you'll be inundated with orders. Good luck with them. . Rob Roy.
  10. How many times have some of us done something like that Dick.???? Cut in haste, discover too late. . Rob Roy.
  11. Hi Gator, Dan's information is correct. Stand the board on end. One of the reasons for it cupping is, when you lay it on a flat surface air can't circulate under the timber, hence it cups. That's why the timber you see in the lumber yard is stickered, so that air can circulate all around the timber. One other reason is the board may have been flat sawn, if it had been quarter sawn it would not cup. It could also have been badly kilned. Hope this helps Gator as I do not profess to be a technical writer, just what I remember from my apprentice days at college, hundreds of years ago. . Rob Roy.
  12. A very nice job Steve, and I like the way you framed it. Thanks for sharing.. The wife likes it too as she is a big Elvis fan . Rob Roy.
  13. A1+ standard as usual Kevin. Great job. Don't be over doing things though. . Rob Roy.
  14. Absolutely superb Dick,a fine job. ABE would be pleased with that hanging up in the Oval room. . Rob Roy.
  15. Annoying thing was Roly I bought it from a PAINT dealer, and when I mentioned it was not to be used on boats, the answer was "well don't use it on yer boat then pal". I gave up. . Rob Roy.
  16. Prepare yourself to be inundated with requests for a load more of those cuties Dan. Superb as always. Thanks for sharing. Rob Roy.
  17. Would MARINE or Exterior ply be too expensive Dan?????. Rob Roy. Roly you might not believe this. A while ago I bought a small can of YACHT VARNISH and when I was reading back of the can to check the re coating time I saw the statement "DO NOT USE FOR BOATS". No joke, Roly for a change,. So it DOESN'T always do what it says on the can. . Rob Roy.
  18. Sounds interesting Jordan. Let's see what you turn out . Rob Roy.
  19. Yes . Thanks Clayton/Travis, for intercepting the bogus posts. I was beginning to think I had one too many Whiskies and the words were all jumbled up. . Just goes to show you're on top of things. Rob Roy.
  20. How about a big road grader, Ghost, or a 360 degree digger?????. Rob Roy.
  21. Superb job John. The little lad will have hours, no Not hours, but YEARS of fun with it. No doubt all his friends will want one. Great stuff. thanks for sharing. . Rob Roy.
  22. There you go Dick, you've just proved you CAN teach old dogs like us NEW TRICKS. I know your dear wife and all who see it will love her clock,a beautiful piece of artistry. Rob Roy.
  23. Very nice job Jack and some very nice Pyro work too. At least you're NOT a basket case .(yet). Rob Roy.
  24. I would be inclined to go with Katie on this one Dan. Rob Roy.
  25. This may sound crazy Dick, but is it possible to remove the movement and DIP it in a quick drying oil. Just a suggestion Dick,(possibly a stupid one). Hope you manage to sort something out as it is one beautiful piece of ART. Rob Roy.
