  1. More really nice name plates. I love the font you use. I have looked for it but I just can not find it Dick heppnerguy
  2. Original and different. That is what I always enjoy seeing. Good work on both of them Dick heppnerguy
  3. I think it is a wonderful and fun piece to be able to say, "I made it", with pride; Way to go, Can't wait to see what you tackle next Dick heppnerguy
  4. Nice little pieces, Pete. Hey it is only a little over a month from now and we should be hooking up for a visit her in Arizona. I am excited to have the opportunity to meet you and your spouse. Dick heppnerguy
  5. Very clever. I love your great imagination and the all the wonderful displays. You are really talented and have a wonderful mind for coming up with creative displays. Dick heppnerguy
  6. Don't be intimidated by intarsia, it is almost all outside cuts. The secret is to pick a piece with only a few pieces. I have some with only 7 or 8. These would give you the chance to try your hand at shaping fitting. You will be amazed how fun they can be. I would suggest that you stay under 35 piece patterns to start. Give it a try, you can do it Dick heppnerguy
  7. It is truly an interesting and informative one, for sure Dick heppnerguy
  8. hard to believe but I do see a lot of people are really blown away by it.. I felt the same way about the Pegas blades Dick heppnerguy
  9. Blows me away. I HAVE to try this method. I love the outcome of the signs you make. I am sure I probably can not get it right, but I am going to try to figure it out. Dick heppnerguy

  11. Thanks for the great web site on wood. I found this so interesting that I quickly placed it in my Favorites Dick heppnerguy
  12. Well, if my EX clamps ever give me trouble I just might give them a try. I find it difficult to understand that any clamp would work better then the ones that come with the Excalibur but It's only money.. Dick heppnerguy
  13. I remember both of those songs although I was unaware of most of the items they were singing about, I enjoyed the song and the dialect in their voices. I still love the way the Australian's sound when they speak and I now that I hear those old songs once more, I realized that I even know what they are singing about now.. Thanks for the recordings Dick heppnerguy

  18. I would have never thought about cutting a car for an ornament but I like the idea. You did a great job cutting it. I looks great Dick heppnerguy
  19. I was alone this afternoon when my wife took my granddaughter clothes shopping so I thought I would take advantage and cut something simple in my shop while I waited for them to return. So I opened up my pattern library on my hard drive and started searching for something that would be fun to cut. Almost immediately I ran across a pattern that I have had for some time and was not sure If I would ever cut it, but now this pattern of Birchbarks stood out as the one I was going to cut. I made one mistake and made the pattern quite small and it quickly became a little bit nerve racking. First of all, there were a fun cuts that were smaller then the drill bits that I presently had on hand. I did find a couple of smaller ones in my Dremel box and got by using them, even though I still needed them to be a little smaller. Secondly, as I began cutting I also discovered that the pattern was lifting from my board, as I must not have gotten enough spray glue on the back of the pattern. I worked around it and when my wife and granddaughter returned, I told them that I had cut a goat pattern. "A GOAT PATTERN?" they both said with a look of 'why would you cut a goat pattern?, on their faces. I went out and brought in the piece I had cut and showed it to them, and they both replied, " That is really cute". That my friends is why I choose to cut that pattern and now you know my story and I am sticking to it Dick heppnerguy
  20. Wow. I looked at them on Steve Good's page and wondered how they would look when cut and finished.. Now I know.... they look real Dick heppnerguy
  21. I love them all. wonderful work. you certainly finished your pieces with love, that is apparent to me. Dick heppnerguy
  22. A beautiful piece of work. Your finish touches make this one a real keeper. I bet your grandkids will enjoy this one in years to come Dick heppnerguy
