  1. I love your dolphin array of projects. Again your finishing is really outstanding as well as your ability on the scroll saw. I especially enjoy your top piece and the way you painted it. Dick heppnerguy
  2. Nice fret work. I can tell you are not afraid to go after the challenges. Hard to pic a favorite one here as all are so well done Dick heppnerguy
  3. I have yet to make a bird feeder but like you Southern Arizona brings a lot of interesting birds here, year around. I should probably take a shot at making a bird feeder too. Dick heppnerguy
  4. What an absolutely fun project. It has kind of a simplistic look but it loaded with a lot of creativity and complexity at the same time. What an eye catcher this one is. Dick heppnerguy
  5. You sure knocked out some fun and attractive pieces. My hat is off to you Dick heppnerguy
  6. Wow' A stunning array of bird cuttings. You do a fabulous job, not only in your cutting but also the great finishing touches such as the beautiful matting and framing. Makes them really attractive Dick heppnerguy
  7. I really love it. I like the painting of it a lot. It seems when I try to paint a project. all I do is ruin it. This is very nice Dick heppnerguy
  8. A nice project. I love that you used a natural rock to make the base. I believe, had you sanded the trunk round it would have added to the appeal. I bet your daughter loved this one Dick heppnerguy
  9. nice variety. I believe I can hear the birds chirping their approval. Dick heppnerguy
  10. I know what you mean. We are in the mid 80's to lower 90's now and 100 degrees is set for this weekend Dick heppnerguy
  11. found this pattern and wanted to give it a try. So I purchased it and did the thick on (4 layers) in 1/4 inch baltic birch while the top layer is a wood that I do not know the name of and had it in my wood rack. I found that using 1/4 inch wood made it so the other colors of the different layers did not show very well, so I cut another one in 1/8 inch BB Ply and just stained the top layer. I put four coats of semi gloss finish on both of them. I did decide the thinner wood brought our the detail and other colors more to my liking. Theses will be gifts to some friends of our that also has a granddaughter who's name happens to be Grace. Dick heppnerguy
  12. Ralph, nice job. I love it when someone asks you to make a project for them and leaves it up to you to decide how you want to make them. He should be pleased with these Dick heppnerguy
  13. This is really cool. Is it one pattern or did you make a combination of two? Either way, I love this project. Dick heppnerguy
  14. You've been making your scroll saw hum a lot. Nicely done pieces. I think my favorite one is probably the Easter bunny because of the use of several natural color woods, that really make that one pop. I enjoyed viewing your posts. Thanks for sharing. Dick heppnerguy
  15. In the Catholic church they perform baptisms on your children and babies. I have a great grandson that is getting baptized on my birthday, in Los Angeles. Several of our family members are going there for the event, including us. I wanted to find a plaque commemorating this event in James' life and looked to Sue Mey to see what she had to offer. I came up with this one and decided to also make this cross for his parents as well. I have not posted anything for some time, although I have made many things in my shop lately. So, here are two of pieces I made this week. Dick heppnerguy
  16. What a beautiful job you did on this project. Effeminately one to be very proud to display. I love not only your work but also the finish on it. Dick heppnerguy
  17. I can see why you are so excited by it. What a perfect gift that will be cherished for a life time or two or three..... It will be in an honored place long after all the other wedding gifts are gone and forgotten. Dick heppnerguy
  18. I love the fret clocks but they don't seem to have many people who wants one bad enough to pay for one. Everyone is amazed by them though. i just can't quite figure that out. Maybe their popularity is going in the direction of the grandfather clocks. They just aren't what they used to be, it seems Dick heppnerguy
  19. I have to say, this is the best pattern I have seen of President Trump. For a Trump fan, it will have to be a "got to have' piece. Good luck on your coming sale and congratulations on your spiral accomplishment. I have always said that if one decides to spend the time to understand the spiral, they will never be disappointed at their efforts to learn them, as you have proven here. Dick heppnerguy
  20. I love your patterns. I would have to vote for the top one here, but can not take anything away from the bottom one, as it is one of your fabulous patterns as well Dick heppnerguy
  21. Adding one more well known singer to your wooden plaque, hall of fame. Great pattern and beautiful project Dick heppnerguy
  22. Absolutely superb, as is your usual. This is indeed an excellent pattern and you have honored you pattern maker with this project. It is an eye catcher, for sure. Hope to be chatting with you again before too long. Dick heppnerguy
  23. I love Jim Blume patterns. They are challenging and well put together. You have obviously mastered the spiral blade, as your items are all superbly done. I sure enjoyed viewing them all Dick heppnerguy
  24. Well done. I have yet to make one of these items and I always admire them......then what is stopping me, you ask? Not sure, is my reply. Dick heppnerguy
  25. Great pattern cutting. You have quite an array of popular people on your wall. All look very good, but then, all of your work is well done. Dick heppnerguy
