  1. Nice looking shop! And a painted floor to boot! Nice! Easy to clean and helps keep the dust down. Gotta love it.
  2. Impressive!
  3. Earlier in the year I bought a can of 77 with the new labeling. I haven’t notice any difference.
  4. Congrats! One heck of a saw.
  5. They look great! Nice work
  6. Looks like a nice bench to sit on and watch the world go by
  7. Walnut, cherry? What other types of wood?
  8. Yes, beautiful!
  9. I’m curious as to how your setup looks. Could you please post a picture or two?
  10. It seems like I can’t keep these in stock. This took the place of burdhouse ornaments as my number one request
  11. Holy moly! Must’ve been a bear spacing the letters
  12. Very nice!
  13. Beautiful!
  14. I too would have to say the chess I made set was my favorite
  15. I had to do a double take on this. Very cool! Congrats on the blue ribbon. Where did ya get it? also, where can one get the pattern? The frame is really cool also!
  16. They look great TAIrving!
  17. Quite the deal! I have an older model Hegner and I put the rear-mounted blade tensioner on it. Takes about3 seconds longer than it takes me on my front mount Hegner to tension the blade. Again, quite the deal, it’s a great saw. An aside here. Like Paul said, you have to oil the saw every 10 hours. I put an hour meter on both of mine. I also wax the table every 10 hours
  18. They look great!
  19. Very nice
  20. Very cool! Turned out great. Thanks again for all your post on this project
  21. Late to the party, but will add my 2 cents. I have not dealt with woodnshop. Looks interesting. I have on quite a few occasions purchased scrollsaw ready wood from Ocooch. Mainly 1/4” walnut and maple, some 1/2” and 3/4” also. All purchases have been 24” in length. Very, very happy with Ocooch. It looks like Ocooch is much cheaper than above mentioned site on what I generally purchase. As far as shipping goes, Just last week I received an order from Ocooch. Two each of 1/4 x 10, 1/2 x 6 , 3/4 x 6. All pieces 24” long, all walnut. Shipping came to $10.41. In my opinion very reasonable. The caveat to that is, I am only 4 Hours away from their shop and the company they use for shipping is not even an hour from my home. (One thing I did notice was with woodnshop, 1/4 x 10 is a glue up. With Ocooch, it is not a glue up. )
  22. Hmmm, you’re not too far north! Only 500 miles or so. I could hop on a snowmobile and race up there. . Back in the ‘60’s , early ‘70’s, the St Paul Winter Carnival hosted a snowmobile race up to Winnipeg. It was quite the deal back then. For us anyways. Not sure about you folks in The Great White North.
