    Yes, very sorry Les, I did kinda lost site of the reason for this thread. Just let me post the plans I used for my framing jig and I will bow out. I got the plans from this site. They have some good plans there: http://www.craftsmanspace.com/free-projects/adjustable-4-corner-framing-clamp-plan.html Adjustable 4 corner framing clamp plan.pdf

    Wish I had been one of them. I just don't have enough patterns,,,,,,

    There have been several patterns I have tried to locate over the years the seem to dead end with "The Berry Basket". The latest one was the pattern for this one.

    Okay, good thread, but the miter is not the hardest part for me. It is gluing. You can cut a perfect 45° miter, but it won't be perfect if it is not glued squarely. I have a couple, maybe three gluing jigs. The last one I made does the best job, but it is cumbersome to set up. Okay for me because I may make 5 or 6 frames a year, but if I were to do more I would want something easier to set up. My current one is similar to this. The other part is fastening the picture into the frame. In the past I have always used little nails, and it looks pretty "tacky" (get it?) to me. Recently I purchased a Logan Picture frame tool. It works great.

    Well done, Les. Hard to find anything much cuter than raccoons. maybe panda bears....

    Back when you could tell one make of a car from another and cars were beautiful... Nice job!

    I paid nothing for my jig, but it does very nice 45° angles and with some wedges I can do other angles.

    Very nice job!

    Very well done. Do you have a pattern for the pieces or are they cut free hand?
  10. Scrappile
    Very well done!

    Great piece of art. Professional work.

    Some time ago I did a picture of two hawks from a pattern by @grampa. He did two patterns of hawks that I really liked. Tonight, after a long time I finished the second one. Thank you Grampa, for the excellent patterns. They were both a pleasure to cut, I only hope I did them justice. The one on the left is the first one I did, the right is the one I finished this evening. Both are cut in Basswood. I love cutting Basswood.

    Really a wonderful piece, Steve. Looking at it on her site and I thought not something I would want to cut. Seeing yours, hummm, maybe I would want to cut it. I really like how you did it.

    Super Job, Dick. You can come to my house and have shop time.
  16. Scrappile
    Very well done
  17. Scrappile
    that is great and definitely deserved.

    Okay I have the solution, only, you young whipper-snappers will not remember them. You need one of those magnifying thingies they use to set in front of the old small screen TV sets. Mount it in front of your saw, reach around it to scroll! Both my magnifiers have to be close to the work. They are a 2.5X and a 1.5X and there is not much difference in focal length that I can tell. I do know that the one with the LED is too bright now that I have had cataract surgery. I may have to experiment with some different bulbs for it. a

    very nice work. Fun to get things completed on the "to do" list. I'm afraid I just keep adding to mine, it will never be completed...

    Very cute, your grandson will enjoy either one. I don't really see it as an "oops", I don't know which one has an "oops' and which one is as intended...

    Well, I will respect her wishes. I not sure it would stand up in court, but I like her patterns and hopefully she will do more. I certainly don't want to do anything that will discourage her. Thanks for the input.

    I interpret that as the pattern, which is what most pattern copyrights are for. You cannot resale the pattern or give copies away. I would not hesitate to sale what I cut from it. Besides, jail may be better than some of the places I've seen old folks stashed in. Where did I see it written, "the older I get the less life in prison seem like a deterrent", or something like that.
  23. Scrappile
    Great pieces. This is your niche for sure.
  24. Scrappile
    Maybe a book if not a video. Either one I would certainly buy it. I understand basic inlay, but cannot wrap my mind around more than very basic. I have never seen a book or video the really demonstrates it well.
  25. Scrappile
    That is awesome, for sure. You will do well at the show, your pieces are all top notch.
