    Everything has gone up in price over the past few years, and then they increased the cost of electricity. My property tax went up 20%. Everything went up but my income.

    Humm, the only kind my wife can grow! Well done.
  3. Scrappile
    Yep. It is as bad as when I hear "Satchmo" sing "Wonderful World". But we could have a lot worse noises going through our heads.
  4. Scrappile
    Very nice.

    Thank you, but HA! You have the skills to cut that on one of your little pieces of 4" x 5" Oak! The backer, 11" x 14". My. wife was at a quilting bee for a couple of days, so I did get it mounted on a backer. Still, need a frame and finish.
  6. Scrappile
    Excellent piece. The way you framed it really make it classy!
  7. Scrappile
    Sometimes, a simple pattern is so nice. Well done, but that may not have been a simple cut in Oak.

    Hello!

    Scrappile replied to NathGA's topic in Introductions

    Glad to have you move into the Village!

    Who said you could not do fret work? They were so wrong. That is beautiful

    Ignore my response about Poster board.
  11. Scrappile
    Help me out @OCtoolguy, Like Kevin writes. What backer are you asking about? I assumed the one backing the picture to enhance the picture, not the one to reduce fuzzies as you cut. I use the poster board to enhance the picture, once it has been cut. To completely different uses.

    not my kind of art, but, for sure, true art. Wonderful job.

    You do great work, Frank. Of the two you show, I like yours best. To me, the background on the second one is too busy. Distracts from the main piece of the picture. But I am no artist, so what I say is just personal preference. But personally, I like yours best!

    For me, hole saws do not stay sharp very long. If I am just making toys for little kids. I buy the wheels. If I am trying to make a model of a car, I turn the wheels on my Lathe. It is time-consuming but very rewarding.
  15. Scrappile
    Very well done. That would have been a very emotional piece to make.
  16. Scrappile
    WOW! I would think after that many of those, no pattern would be needed. Turn the scroll saw on auto.
  17. Scrappile
    Very well done Frank. The kind of picture I can look at and think smooth, relaxing thoughts!

    I have not used cardboard from boxes. I have used flat black poster board as a backer on many pictures I have cut. Have never had a problem.
  19. Scrappile
    Great work!

    I have never drawn blood with my scroll saw. I have caused a blister from a burn by touching the blade when it was hot.

    UV inhibitors finish and. keep it out of bright light.
  22. Scrappile
    Nice.!

    Mighty fine, Dick. I will not show this to Patti. I took her to Costco this afternoon as a Valentine gift. I hate to go to Costco more than anything. But figured during the Super Bowl, it would be less crowded and it surely was! Now I should be good for another year.

    See my second post on here.

    Right, I think I have some Krylon, will have to check. I may be too old, but worth checking.
