    Thanks! I do not paint the edges, using a 0 size blade, the pieces would not fit together it I painted the edges.

    What does the baking do to the wood, change color, can you sand the clay flat?

    So what made you change your mind? Sorry to disappoint

    I like the idea, hint, the thick Delta Acrylic paints can hide a multitude of mistakes.....

    Those puzzles are beautiful, I would frame them and hang them instead of playing with them. Looking at the pattern (I have not watched the video), I figured the dotted line was to follow with the bandsaw cut.
  6. Scrappile
    Yes that is correct. Cut out at 90°, unlike inlay.

    @FrankEV, I was using and very satisfied with Adobe print "free Version" poster option. But it went away suddenly and it appears there is no free version of Adobe anymore. So I am going to have to learn inkscape I guess. I am on a Mac and Inkscape appears to be a little different for Mac than Microsoft. I need to spend some time figuring it out.

    Thanks for the nice comment. Putting the pieces back together is the fun part, I am always worrying I may have lost a piece or they won't fit, very satifying when it all goes together. The only problem I had was I increased the size of the picture, and it was very pixelated(?), no clean lines to follow. I have got to resolve that before I do more. I I used Delta Creamcoat Acrylic paint. Painted with a brush. Finished with my go to Deft Clear Wood Finish Semi-Gloss.

    I have always loved the NW Costal Native American Art. This is one I did from a picture by Glen Rabena called "Kingfisher". I will frame it when I decide what would be appropriate. Done in 1/4" BB. Cut mostly with a size 0 Pegas Double skip tooth.

    Great job, Dick. I still have not finished sanding the pieces on my first real intarsia project. Maybe someday I will get back to it.. Wait, I maybe running out of somedays. Guess I need to work harder.

    My Hegner does not take 2 tools to put the blade in the top clamp. That setup on the that Hawk is almost as bad as the old craftsman I started with. Took two tools on both upper and lower clamps to install a blade. Do the new Hawks require tools to install blades? Hegner requires a special wrench to do the bottom, but it is straight forward and easy.

    I am some what prejudice, Beautiful clock. You did a great job with it.

    I can't even figure out how to read it! Is there any part on the back that is stationary, that you could use as a mount? Both discs have to rotate, so you can't mount it like a clock. I did an image search and there are a few ideas. Looks like some have it in an insert made of some material, like a clock. So can the back disc be stationary and you can set it my just rotating the front disc? example: https://www.ebay.com/itm/324559272770

    Great picturer, Dick. I finally had to have our old cat put down last Monday. I got to the point he quite eating. It was time. He was a good one. And our last one.

    Great job, Denny!

    I purchased books 15, 16 and 17 many years ago, from the woodyoubelieve shop and they were "Ebooks". That came in ZIP files.
  22. Scrappile
    Good cutting , Dick. Sad, anymore when I go to the shop, I feel guilty. I feel I should be outside working or inside clean house. But I still get some time in the shop once an a while.
  23. Scrappile
    That is where I ordered mine from. He has completely redone the site since I ordered.

    I have not viewed that particular one, I have in the past purchased a couple of their books. That was several years ago. They seemed pretty confusing to me, a zip file when unzipped had plans that were several pages and some what confusing then there was a folder of pictures of the items. Some were in German some in english. I made a couple. Not too bad, but it took me some thinking. Maybe they are better now. I am a big fan of the Schwibbogens, like to make them. A little hard to store from year to year.

    Really nicely done.
