    Hey Lovely People...I'm back :-) I hope this finds you all well and in good spirits. I've missed the camaraderie. I've been away far too long and am (still / always) blown away with your beautiful craftsmanship. When was the last time you went back and had a look at your beginnings to see where you are now with your skills? My scroll saw hasn't had her cover off for a while due to new business ventures, although my creative side has begun to stretch its claws! Next will be the travel bug :-) This was the last scroll piece I did, the mirrored background picks up everything LOL - what can you see? Looking forward to reconnecting and catching up with all the goss. Happy days. Cheers Lorie (Townsville, Far North Queensland, Australia!)

    Simply love it, the foot controller whilst an optional extra is worth the $

    Happy New Year to you all ... I'm back didn't go away ... was tied to the workshop/kitchen/workshop!! Here's an update... I couldn't find a forstner bit so attempted the hole with my scrollsaw - wasn't too bad but needed a heck of a lot of sanding. Ahah...I'll use the Dremel big oops, big gap! Note to self - dingbat, slow the speed down!! Attempt 2 ... different timber and still no forstner bit, so with a little amber liquid tempter I asked he who ought to listen if I could please borrow his skill with the hole saw and drill. Too easy, about 3mm too small a hole though and even more sanding. No amount of amber liquid tempter would persuade him to do this So this time I did it manually...I am so glad I did because I'm really chuffed with the result. My younger Bro liked his Christmas present! I'll post the completed project in my gallery along with the other Christmas gifts made. Thanks again though to you all for your advice and I will be investigating the jig concept as well as the circle cutter.

    Dear All Wishing you and yours a safe and very Merry Christmas...thought this was apt Words from Steve Good pattern, the bell is from a pattern I had lying around. Also taking this opportunity to thank you all for being part of my year and projects...I have a few pictures to post but it will be in the New Year...and yes I nailed the clock ;-) Cheers Lorie

    Thank you all for your advice and input. I'll be using my scroll saw - finding a forstner bit locally is as rare as rocking horse droppings, so I'll cut it shy and sand!! I will post the project - after cutting the hole then after the fit-up. It's not an overly huge hole and with very little experience in cutting a full circle; this is going to be a great learning curve albeit a continuous one Thanks again. Happy scrolling!! LarB

    Hi Folks Chick question here Is there any difference to cutting a hole to suit a 1 7/16" (35mm) clock insert with the scroll saw as opposed to using a forstner bit? Thanks in advance! Cheers
