  1. Nice!
  2. Very well cut and certainly nothing wrong with that veining. Something you might try sometime on a practice piece. When I do veining, I first cut with a small size straight blade, then I go back over the cut with as small spiral blade to widen the kerf some. The spiral will follow the first cut, and you can sorta file some of the wavers out with thee spiral blade.
  3. Hummm a place to hold the Whiskey! I like it!
  4. Nice setup! I really like the idea of the cart for the saw. Gives some use to what is normally wasted space provided by a saw stand.
  5. Very nicely done, Dick!
  6. That is great!
  7. Duh,,, hello,,, where did you go?
  8. great set up. looks like that cart was built for it
  9. certainly nothing wrong with that.. I am still intimated by frames. What are the best clamps to glue them with. I keep looking.
  10. Yep that is not real smart. Try some Mineral spirits.. in a small spot...I think it will remove the label and glue without affecting the paint...is the underneath of the table the same finish? if so try it there. Again congrats. I think your are going to love that saw.
  11. Well that is one way to fix a problem. I envy you and your new saw, I'm sure you will love it.
  12. Dave, I do not really remember. Maybe eBay, or a place out of Canada that sell such stuff, that right now I cannot remember the name of some that ends in "supply" discussed on here sometimes. Possibility to explore. Is going to a local trade school or junior college where they teach machinists and asking a student if they need a project and will build one for a small fee. I know our local JR college had such a thing years ago. My Brother went through the coarse.. Built himself the neatest little .22 cal derringer pistol. He could have made something for this with his eyes closed. Then he went on to become a sheet metal worker.... how boring..
  13. And it turned too fast for me same as the Guinevere sanding system.
  14. Wait a minute, did I miss something. You pulled the tension lever forward and the blade flopped, Of course, you released the tension. In both videos The flop is with the tension lever released. Am I correct or an I seeing it wrong? Put the blade in with that white tension lever forward, then when the blade is clamped push the tension lever back. That is how it works.
  15. Welcome to the village. Glad to have you join us.
  16. no it is added somehow. Amazing welding job some how.,
  17. Okay. Okay I have search every word I can think to find my post about this, where I had the privilege of having my son's neighbor John Callies make me an adaptor for this problem. He did, and it took less time for him than it did for my son to go to the store and back! This is what he did, it works great. He added an extension on to the the attachment I had that did not work. This works great. Now the only problem I see is My grinder is a slow speed, but I think 1750 rpms is still too fast. I think on the other side of my "slow speed grinder". I will add a shaft in pillow bocks with a step pulley on both the grinder arbor and the shaft in the pillow blocks so I will have an option on the speeds. May never get that done. But a thought. So for now this is my solution and grateful for it. The price was right.... cost me nothing. John Callies is a great neighbor to my son. I also show this so it you have to go to a machinist to have one made like @Dave Monk did may this is a cheaper alternative to show them. I am trying to figure a way to repay John Callies. Maybe a scrolled picture of his cars or something.
  18. I agree the thinner the wood the smaller the blade and the finer the teeth.. The thicker the wood the bigger the blade and the fewer the teeth.. That is my rule. Others may disagree.
  19. One more thing from me. Try different blades. I have found that the blade that worked for me in the past does not work as good on a current project. Different wood different blades. I have quite a library of blames and I do not hesitate to switch around. In all my years of scrolling, I have never had a "favorite blade". I go through many different types, many different configurations of teeth.
  20. Very nice cutting, Denny!
  21. My guess is that you are pushing too hard especially for that thick of wood. Cutting thick is a slow process, have to let the blade to the work. It gets boring some times.
  22. That is wonderful! Beautiful! I would love to scroll that for my son. He carries a traveling guitar wherever he goes flying for Fedex. He has took lesson and practiced for many years.. If that is a pattern you are willing to share I would love a copy for him. If not,, I have done many others, he will not know the difference.
