Those look like just the ticket for them, with a lot of thought for them to explore along the way Dick heppnerguy

I guess you will just have to come here some time and find out for yourselves.. I can understand why you might have a difficult time liking Southern Arizona where you can sit outside in the mornings wearing your shorts and drinking your coffee while feeding the fish from your patio. At least that is what we do. The summers are pretty hot and we do get a few days where you might take a light jacket out of your closet for awhile. Most trees do not loose their leaves in the winter and in January you see convertibles with their tops down and no windows rolled up to protect you from the chill. Here the cactus grow as high as trees and the palm trees decorate the yards. The climate is dry with no noticeable humidity. Yes I can see why you might not like Southern Arizona. there is a constant festival of some kind going on all through the winter months and a lot of interesting and wonderful places to visit. If you do not like fun, music, great restaurants, having to choose which fun thing you might like to go to today, being able to watch the major league teams doing their spring practice games, balloon rides and air craft fly-ins, you definitely would not like Southern Arizona.

wow. You did a great job with this one for sure Dick heppnerguy

very nice group of well scrolled and finished items. Thanks for posting Dick heppnerguy

You spruced that box up so it has become from a nice box to a great box.. Maybe you should move to Southern Arizona.. we have the hummingbirds year around here. Dick heppnerguy

Originality, that is what I like the most here in The Village.. You get the "today's pick" from me Dick heppnerguy

My favorite is the car/city scene.. I think that I is really cool\ Dick heppnerguy

I like it too. Very well done. Thanks for posting so all of us can enjoy it Dick heppnerguy

an excellent couple of patterns. Well cut and finished. If I were your scroll teacher, (but in reality, you would more likely be mine ) I would grade your pieces with and "A" Dick heppnerguy

Good luck with this.... if indeed you can find one to purchase, you are one lucky guy. However, I believe that you will probably discover you will be informed that they no longer have one or can even get one for you.. I would call them now and see what they say before you get your hopes too far up Dick heppnerguy

Scappile. (Paul) bought one about last May. He has owned the EX 30 inch which now belongs to me. ... thank you Paul for selling it to me.... and he can tell you first hand, everything he likes and doesn't like about it..PM him Dick heppnerguy

I was thinking yesterday that I should be PM ing you again soon. I did not want to bother you too much but I did want to hear an update on you. Well, then I stumbled onto this thread and got the update I was looking for. It sounds like you are improving, even though you have a long way to go. So happy that Mary Ann is able to get back to work and be among all the people she knows and loves at the store. We lived in a small town in Oregon for 14 years before we moved to Arizona and I really understand what your wife is going through. People that have never lived in a small town do not understand the small town, community feeling, where everyone knows everyone and go to bat for them when needed. I just want you to know that Sharon and I have you covered in our daily morning talks with God and that He hears us and has answered many of our recent prayers with miracles. So just know He is listening and it still doing miracles for those who are asking. Much love to you and Mary Ann from Sharon and I. I think about you every day and through out my day and I am so happy that you are finally getting some good reports and encouragement from the doctors. You are right about the love and support found here in The Village. That is the main reason I try to always encourage new member to log on often so we can all get to know each other better and that way we pass along the feelings of a small town to those here. Dick heppnerguy

Very curious about this new King saw. I hope you report on it every few months and let the rest of get an update on what you think of it, as time goes by. I trust you to let it out as it is and not cover up for any faults you may find. I think a lot of people might have an eye on this one to see if it is the same as the EX and how well it holds up Dick heppnerguy

Welcome.. when we were first married we moved to Tacoma and then back to Portland. We recently moved to Casa Grande, Arizona. We have a sno bird neighbor who lives up by Seattle. I remember going to Seattle in 1962 and saw the Space Needle being built for the upcoming world's fair. My wife was born in Port Townsend. Glad you found us and we all hope you take a little of your time and drop in often so we all can get better acquainted with you and you with us. Dick heppnerguy

Bill. I personally am really glad you made the choice to become a member of our world wide family.. If you have a question about anything to do with scrolling, please take the time to post it. There are many people on this site that continue to show their talents. skills and wisdom. Keep in mind, we all started scrolling where you are now. questions asked on this site not only help the one asking but many times brings up things that others have not even thought to ask. I hope you continue to log on here often, as that is how we all begin to know one another. A big welcome to you from Southern Arizona where the sun shown on us and delivered an 85 degree day. Spring is almost here and working it's way to Michigan Dick heppnerguy

A fun and interesting piece for sure Dick heppnerguy

Looks like an interesting piece to cut. I believe I too would choose a spiral to cut this one, Nice pattern Dick heppnerguy

A very nice and also useful piece. A pattern hunting we will go... Thanks for the posting of your great piece, Of course your wife wanted one of these. You have to be careful what you show the wife. Dick heppnerguy

What a cute little girl. This piece brought an instant smile to my face. So delightful. Nicely done all the way around Dick heppnerguy

Sam Custodio is one pattern maker who makes really nice patterns that are a little on the challenging lines but not too crazy, if you know what I mean. When Sam posted this pattern, it instantly opened a portal in my memory and I knew I would have to cut this pattern just for myself. This particular pattern was more challenging to me then I thought it would be. I am nearly out of blades that I usually use but just did not have the right frame of mind to wait for my blade order to arrive, so I went ahead and cut it anyway. As a result, I found it more of a struggle to cut then I thought it was going to be. I was really unsure about the "scenicruiser" words on the side of the bus because it looked pretty delicate for the blades I was using. Sam had the top of the letters unattached but because of the blades I was using, I extended the tops of the letters so they too were touching solid wood. I cut this in 1/4 inch BB Ply and the same for the backer board. I still need to through some finish on it but that will not change things enough to repost it. I hope this one shakes a few cob webs in the memories of others as it did in mine. Dick heppnerguy

I really like the way it came out.. I sure hope I do not get hooked on these Dick heppnerguy

get the pattern and go for it. You might surprise yourself Dick heppnerguy

I do have to admit that I think the unicorn is pretty cool Dick heppnerguy

OH, NOW I SEE WHY YOU ARE NOT CUTTING THE BUFFALO RIGHT NOW. Kris, this is a really nice pattern, once more. I am always excited to see your posts as they are always such fine patterns and workmanship Dick heppnerguy
