Not letting any grass grow under your feet..nice ideas Dick heppnerguy

Looks like someone is getting ready for a craft show Dick heppnerguy

A great idea.. I really like it Dick heppnerguy

This came out really nice. I hope someone nabs this one. POW's are too easily forgotten unless it is one you know personally Dick heppnerguy

It is customer reactions like these that really make the time spent cutting them so worth while. Dick heppnerguy

Welcome to our world wide family. So glad you decided to join us all here in The Village. Your work is very nice. it is easy to see that you take pride in what you do. I hope you log on often so that you soon feel really comfortable here and quickly you will get to know the regulars and we you, much better Dick heppnerguy

I did take the time to read about Ray. I had never run across his name until I saw his chess pattern and was unable to find him by googling his name. Luckily I found it because of all you wonderful people here on the Village. I found Ray's story and time of his life to parallel mine and was hoping to be able to talk with his daughter or son about him. That did not work well . But I finally got on their web site and downloaded the order form and mailed my pattern request in to them. I am in hopes that I will receive my pattern either today or Monday so I can get started on the chess board. I love to support the loved ones of people like Ray who keep their talents alive for others and I will buy patterns from them, even if I have no desire for the pattern at the time, in hopes it will keep the family encouraged to continue to pass on to others the work of the deceased. Thanks again for your help and I will post my progress on this board as I go along. I am very anxious to start on it. It looks like the outcome will be worth the effort for sure. Dick heppnerguy

I did find a reference to Ray and Dan Wilckens but when I googled their names I was never able to make the connection. I have mailed my order to them and I expect to receive the pattern within 10 days via snail mail. Thank for your help, John I really appreciate you taking your time to get me the information. I am excited about starting to work on it Dick heppnerguy

Be really careful if you use your generator, Kevin..If it is not vented really well, you could easily be in big trouble and not even know it Dick heppnerguy

It turned out that I could not use the pattern in the magazine because it was not complete enough for me. Thanks to Ray I was able to get their phone number and I did call them but the connection was so poor I could not place me order. I just might mail it to them instead. Again, thanks to everyone for helping with this problem Dick heppnerguy

Thank you so much..I will see if I can find it in the magazine as suggested and if not, I will purchase a pattern Dick heppnerguy

Wow you guys are the best.. I went back to find my post a couple of days later and could not find it and thought I must have done something wrong and it did not get posted. So I started making my own pattern but now I do not need to do that as I should have that magazine. i can not believe I missed it in the magazine. I am excited to start cutting it. Dick hepnnerguy

Good job, Dave. I already had this font but you nailed it early on Dick heppnerguy

I sure hope everything turns out well for you. Down time sucks big time. Keep us all posted on how things turn out for you Dick heppnerguy

I would say, prepare for the worse and pray for the least. Dick heppnerguy

I just use blue tape for any stack cutting I am doing. I do not like cutting more than 3 layers, but I often don't bother to stack cut because I enjoy my saw time so much Dick heppnerguy

Welcome from Arizona. I think you will soon realize that it is very difficult to find a nicer group of people anywhere then the people you will soon become familiar with here, should you decide to log on often so this can happen. Hope to see you here on a regular basis. Dick heppnerguy

I am wanting to make this chess board but I can not find the pattern.. Can anyone help direct me to it, please? Dick heppnerguy

So glad to hear that it turned up for you. What a relief that had to be.. Dick heppnerguy
