  1. Here are a couple of items i cut this week. Not a lot of time in the shop for now but I have gotten some. Here are the last two items I made. The Greyhound bus is one that I cut for myself about a year ago and have it hanging on my shop wall. It is a Sam Custodio pattern and my son made a comment that it was one of his favorite pieces, I have made. Well his birthday is in a couple of weeks, so I cut this one for him as an add on gift. The plaque. a lot of you will recognize as a Steve Good pattern and I choose to make this one for my wife for an Easter gift. I knew she would enjoy this one. So here is my contributions for now. I am working on a couple of other projects and will be posting them in the next few days. So you see, I am still alive and well. Dick heppnerguy
  2. I knew it would stand out to the carefully and skillful eyes you have, so I thought I would beat you to the punch. Dick
  3. I posted it in the and thought because of the topic, I should include it here also Dick heppnerguy
  4. I cut this one just to give intarsia a try once more. I used to do only intarsia but got tired of them. It looks like I am losing some of my skills from being away from it so long so I might try a couple more to see if I can get back into the groove. Dick heppnerguy
  5. I decided to try another intarsia project. This one I have made 3 other times and I have sort of left my intarsia projects way behind me and concentrated on scrolling. I guess, as I age, I only seem to get more and more out of touch with my abilities. This is a pattern I purchased from JGR several years ago. I just needed something to do in the shop and I asked my wife if she would like one of these and she said she would. I used several kinds of wood on the but I have to admit that I stained the man's hair but the rest is natural. Dick heppnerguy
  6. Very nice. I have never done a parrot before now, but after seeing this one,,,,,who knows Dick heppnerguy
  7. very impressive. It look magnificent. It is perfection personified Dick heppnerguy
  8. Changed Pattern Types to Fretwork, Portraits, Intarsia/Segmentation, Boxes/Bowls/Baskets, Clocks, Home Items, Word Art, Other
  9. you are so right about that. I thought I had patience but I wouldn't even want to try what this guy is doing. I will leave having this much patience to him and the doctors Dick heppnerguy
  10. Anyone can make perfect things with a laser but only a dedicated person can make beautiful things by hand. If it was all about selling things for the money, then who cares. I don't do craft shows because, for me, it looses the feeling of gratification when I am asked to make something for someone, because they have seen what I have made and would like to have one for themselves or a friend. Luckily for me, they are not into scrolling themselves so they aren't able to compare my mediocre work with that of such great scrollers like we have here in The Village Dick heppnerguy
  11. I know what you mean. I could not agree more. I was so amazed with his work that i just had to post it here. Dick heppnerguy
  12. almost like your signs Dick heppnerguy
  13. my thoughts also. It took me a second to realize what he had done. Dick heppnerguy
  14. pretty amazing guy. I think he must be a one of a kind with this hobby, at least to the degree he has taken it Dick heppnerguy
  15. It was a very interesting video and he mentioned that he no longer uses regular matches. I would thing a match manufacturer would want to purchase one of his items and display it in their office. Have you gone there and seen it in person? Dick heppnerguy
  16. not crazy for loving to scroll, but maybe a little otherwise........ Dick
  17. me too.. I could have been in a lot of trouble otherwise or maybe hurt her feelings, which would have been really not good. Dick heppnerguy
  18. My youngest daughter got married last month and my wife reminded me that I had not made them a wedding plaque. OH, my. I went to the computer and pulled up this Sue Mey pattern and went to my shop and put it in my 'top priority' projects. I got it mailed off this morning. So glad my wife reminded me when she did Dick heppnerguy
  19. A fun and delightful little bear. I brought a smile to my face as soon as I opened it Dick heppnerguy
  20. Nice job.. I have a neighbor who owns a Vette and I know he would like this one too. I just might check out Sam's page and download it. Be sure and let Sam know you made it and send him a photo of it. He likes to post them when someone cuts one of his patterns Dick heppnerguy
  21. I am so glad you can still sit long enough at your scroll saw and able to come up with such nice projects. This one is amazing, I love it Dick heppnerguy
  22. Been off line for a few days so ....HAPPY ANNIVERSARY to both of you. Both projects are very nice. I think I will have to keep your anniversary one in mind when our next one comes along in November Dick heppnerguy
  23. I always enjoy seeing your cuttings. You have a unique way of framing them and that is also one of the things that I look forward to seeing what you are going to do next, in that department Dick heppnerguy
  24. you never stop coming up with new ideas and all of them are very nicely done and a pleasure to view. Dick heppnerguy
  25. great pieces. I am glad you showed the finished ones as the first photos did not have enough contrast in the background to be able to understand how really good they are. Dick heppnerguy
