  1. The Master of the Masters has done it again. That is awesome, Randy.
  2. Welcome to the forum. Glad you are here and we are ready to see some of your work. Just a note for what it is worth, I have always read it is not advisable to post your email address in the forum section for everyone to see. You can get spammed or something.
  3. Hi, Vikki! Welcome to the village. I think you will enjoy it here. As for the patterns, maybe you could contact Pedro. He lives in Spain and does the pattern restore or enhance thing, on the computer. Check his free patterns here. http://www.finescrollsaw.com/freepatterns.htm I have bought several of his patterns and had several email conversations with him. A very nice and helpful gentleman to deal with. Might be worth a try to email him.
  4. I agree, great pattern. Very well done.
  5. Nice puzzle. My uneducated guess on the wood is Curly Maple.
  6. Very nice pieces.
  7. Going to be a beautiful piece. I've gone to use larger blades in larger areas sometimes, just so I won't break so many blades. So far I have not found one that I am as comfortable with as I am with the 3/0. I do like to use a 1/16" bit to drill holes in the areas large enough for it to fit. I lose a lot of the 3/0 blades threading them through the small holes. So easy to bend one and once bent they are not going to last much longer.
  8. What a beautiful picture that puzzle makes. Great work.
  9. I have to admit it is on my mind a lot. But maybe I am closer to a pattern addict. I keep telling myself enough is enough, then I see another pattern I like and I can't stop myself. Just received two new ones in the mail yesterday. I will not live long enough to do half of them.
  10. That is a beautiful piece of jewelry.
  11. That is a real nice job on that project! You are well on your way now!
  12. I think personal preference it the best alternative. Somethings you might give consideration of are, I found I like a stool, with no arms. Stool because it is height adjustible, back can be adjusted in both height and forward and backward. Important to me because of back problems. I tried one with arms and they got in my way. The stool I ended up with was a little expensive, but I think it was money well spent. Helps me to be able to sit longer and enjoy the hobby. The only problem with mine is, right now it rolls too easily. I will correct this with a matt on the floor. I have one, when it dries it will go back in front of my station. The set is not fabric, not sure what it is called, but it is comfortable, and very easy to clean. I ordered it through Global Industrial.
  13. I have never understood why companies with a great history of quality tools does that.
  14. Nice work! Been a Life member since the early '60's.
  15. Very nice.
  16. You are correct. Buying ink is like buying a new battery for a cordless tool. For a few bucks more you can buy a new tool with new batteries. If you watch sells you can get a good new printer for the cost of replacement ink.
  17. Welcome to the forum. Glad you signed up.
  18. That really looks nice!
  19. It is exactly the same. WTB bought out Mike's business and website.
  20. Somehow I missed this post. Those are all beautiful. What does a person do with all this scrolled "stuff". I think my wife as asked that a few times.....
  21. Congratulations on the saw. You will love it. I read once where a scroller that liked to stand while scrolling, fixed the foot switch where he could operate it with his knee. That would be awkward to me but maybe not. Might be worth a try.
  22. Congratulations on an awesome job. Must be very satisfying to do all stages of a piece. Great job.
  23. Be interesting to know what that does to correct the problem. I know you move the motor to adjust the forward/back movement of the blade. It talk about that in the owner's manual. But it doesn't describe returning the motor to the original position. Anyway it is an easy enough thing to try and if it helps, great. I think I will give it a try.
  24. Very nice.
  25. Very beautiful!
