  1. Great picture, especially this time of year. Well done. You will have a whole new outlook once you have your cataract surgery....
  2. It appears the Helmut Schibbogen part is still working. I emailed them and received a message back saying those patterns were still available. They did not answer about Don's patterns. I have sent another email to see if they missed that part of the question.
  3. Good to have another Texan join us. Look forward to getting to know you.
  4. Glad you are moving into the Village. Welcome..
  5. Welcome to the village. I think you will like it here.
  6. Very nice cuttings. Thanks for the story about the Rhinos. I hope they succeed.
  7. Not for routing on, but if a person is looking for something to raise things on to paint them.. I have been using these lately and they work great. Free at your local grocery produce department!
  8. Well sorry, but this kind of service will not keep them in business long. And if they go out of business.... were do parts come from? I would be very skeptical. I wish them well. Hope they succeed I do not see how a business can like that. I guess in the greater scheme of things, they are providing a custom built saw and there are not really a large number of buyers,,, so those that want one will be patient.
  9. Interesting, I assumed at first glance it was the Chevy one, just a different name in Australia. Then I looked up FJ Holden and found out how wrong I was. These were made 1953 - 1957, long before the little Chevy pickup thingy. Maybe that is where Chevy got their idea. I know Chey's was model after the 1950 era pickup,,,, but the idea to build a modern scale down one may have come from the Holden,,,, or not.
  10. I really like you clock. Very well done.
  11. Nice job. Those a cool looking car/trucks.. Nice pattern and great cutting. I do all my "veining" that way.
  12. Like to see them in hardwood. Great job on them. You have to work fast if you want to use the wood before it cups. I had a piece of oak 1/4" cup, I straightened it as the directions said. Started sawing "The Last Supper" in it and it cupped again. I straightened I again ( I had only started so not far along), started sawing again, and it cupped again..... Not sure what to do with it now.
  13. Great to have you join us.
  14. Very well done on the coasters.
  15. I use a Hegner,,, my stuff doesn't look like that, I think I will sell the darn thing.....
  16. As I sit here with a cat on my lap! Well done!
  17. Wonderful job and I really like the way you did the first "M". Well done.
  18. @Charlie E can you explain this a little, "then fogged it with flat black from a rattle can to darken it a bit". I think I know what you mean, but have not heard of this before. Did you just kinda lightly mist over it?
  19. Very nice memorial cutting. Very sorry she was taken early.
  20. Another very well done one. Great job.
  21. Did you switch blades when you went to thicker wood? I've been scrolling for some time, and I still find that I am switching to different types of blades often, still experimenting. The point I am trying to make is, do not hesitate to try different blades for different things. Switching blade is easy and only take a little time. The hardest part if remembering which blade worked the best for what. I am not good at taking/keeping notes! You did a good job on this one, keep on, keep practicing..
  22. Pleasure to meet you, Brennan. Nice to have you move into the Village. Hope to get to know you.
  23. You did a very nice job on that. I have thought I'd try that pattern some time. Hope I can to as good as you have.
  24. Very very nice. Been to Florence, Oregon often. When we go to the Oregon Coast my wife always has to take a trip down to Florence... there is one or two great quilt shops there.....
  25. Next time you see her, tell her she has a lot of fans at Scrollsaw Village. Maybe she will join and share some secrets!!!!
