  1. I have been using #1 Pegas spirals quite a bit lately and on my saw I open the bottom clamp a little more than I would for a flat blade, slip it in my clam and tighten. I can feel right away if the blade is in fact getting clamped or not. Once I feel the clamp on the bottom catching I tighten it and then I am ready to go. I do not ever worry about how flat the blade is in the bottom or the top clamp and I do not have breakage problem with my blades unless I am using them too long. That is how it is for me.

  2. thank you so much for the nice comments. I certainly enjoyed cutting and framing it. Dick heppnerguy
  3. thank you Ron. I sure enjoyed making it. It was way to cute to not give it a try, I thought Dick heppnerguy
  4. I use my router table for all my router jobs. It is the only way I feel really comfortable using a router. Dick heppnerguy
  5. Nice plaque. After being together that long I guess they finally decided they like each other. Just being silly. Dick heppnerguy
  6. What a talented and busy person you are. Thanks for continuing to post your work as I always look forward to what you are doing and admire your pattern making a lot Dick heppnerguy
  7. thank you every one for the compliment and all the nice comments sharing your feelings of grieve for this poor lady and what remains of her family. I too can not understand how they will be able to ever get back to normal with this situation they are facing. Oh, by the way, I do not know why the photo turned out as bad as it did but the plaque colors did not look so washed out as they appeared in the photo. Bad exposure is all I can guess.

  8. A friend of ours lost her son about a month ago and I made her a plaque and then she lost her daughter last week. They both had the same health problems. So sad. I hope the plaque help her a little as she heals from all her loss. Dick heppnerguy
  9. they can be a challenge but slowly starting to understand them a little Dick heppnerguy

  14. Great pattern cutting. I still listen to Waylon in my shop a lot. I love that country time music Dick heppnerguy
  15. nice projects and you were definitely missed here but your father certainly has to come before the rest of us. Hope he is doing better now Dick heppnerguy
  16. Now that is what I have to call original art. Good job for sure Dick heppnerguy
  17. A really nice Valentine project. I also enjoy the addition of the lights. Makes this go unnoticed for sure Dick heppnerguy
  18. I really enjoy how one part is solid view and the other is a cut out. Very original. Nice job from the side I can see. I like the black tail entwined with the other one. Dick heppnerguy
  19. Thank you....I would do it a little differently if I was to cut it again. I did think it was a cute pattern though Dick heppnerguy
  20. Thank you for all the nice comments. I appreciate you taking your time to post them. Dick heppnerguy
  21. It does indeed. Now that you are in your summer the cold shops should no longer be a problem for you. But then, living in Southern Arizona as I do, this week the temperatures have been in the mid 70's so I also do not have a cold shop. Dick heppnerguy
  22. She did indeed. I posted it on Facebook and received a lot of nice comments on it. Thank you for yours too Dick heppnerguy
  23. I did make the frame. It was my first attempt at an oval frame and it looks way better than the photo shows. I think I will be making a lot more frames this year. Dick heppnerguy
  24. There are a lot of theories out there but the best Idea, in my opinion is to change out the the thumb screw and the set screws when all this starts to happen, as to start sanding and forcing the set screw harder and harder only starts the clamp itself to spread and then before you know it, you have to replace the entire unit. If one changes the set screw and thumb screw when all this starts, one saves further frustrations and money to do as I suggest above right away. Just my opinion and I works for me Dick heppnerguy
  25. I found it on line some where. If you would like it and can't find it, let me know. Dick heppnerguy
