  1. I agree great cutting. That could not have been easy! Big dragon fan myself! Makes me want to watch "Game of Thrones" again!
  2. Another great job on pattern and cutting. My son got to take the controls on one of those WWII Bombers at a private antic airplane show he got invited to and was allow to take us parent with him. They offered to take him for a ride in it, probably a s B-17. He went, once in the air the co-pilot got out of his seat and offered it to my son. Once he sat down, the pilot said to him "you have the controls". My son said it was one of the biggest thrills in his flying career.
  3. You got yourself quite a fleet! I love them and got the patterns to cut some. Should get more scrolling time soon as winter comes. I will probably be looking at your to see how they should look. I will keep trying until mine look as good as yours, or as close as I can get!
  4. Personally I am not a fan of the packing tape method. Most times I do not use tape, I use spray adhesive and attach directly to the wood. When I tried packing time over the pattern I would get sawdust under the tape that hid the lines. When I want more "lub" for cutting I cover the wood with blue painter's tape. I only use it when I am cutting wood that burns easily like Cherry, or I am cutting something very thick like for 3D cutting. That is the way I fly, does not mean it is the only way to go. I suggest trying it every way mentioned and find what you like best.
  5. That is a great picture. Well done.
  6. Well done.
  7. Anyone that knows me knows I am the CEO in my house and my wife is afraid to criticize anything I do. Anyone need a Brooklyn Bridge.
  8. I am having a problem with starting projects but not getting them finished. Has something to do with my age. But I did finish this one after I had started three other things.
  9. I do know, Mr. Charlie E., you are the master of these portraits. Even if I don't know the character you are showing, I don't get out much, the portraits are always spot on. I never tire of seeing them... Even I know some the his songs, although if I heard them I could not tell you who it was singing them. I have always been pretty much of a "square".
  10. Sorry, I got so excited seeing a silhouette of a pinscher, I forgot to say you did a great job on it!
  11. Nice!
  12. both very well done!
  13. I have owned three full sized in my life. Best breed I ever owned. Loyal, brave and very protective. Love the breed, would have another if I weren't so darn old!
  14. Very nice work. I do not understand the math though...
  15. Great cutting!
  16. I agree with all comment above, that is beautiful wood. Sorta reminds me of beech, which I love to work with. This wood you used looks like you could glue up a panel and not see a seam. I really cannot get my head around how you do you beautiful pieces.
  17. Really a nice job!
  18. Going to be a beauty!
  19. You always do such a great job on the patterns and cutting. Always look forward to you posts. Love the commentary you give on each plane. Great picture.
  20. great job!
  21. That is a great stool. You did a fine job on it. Maybe you could fine some little flip flops to tack onto it.
  22. Very nice job. Inlay is fun and rewarding. Did you say in another post, what the emblem is and I missed it?
  23. Great scrolling, Dick. You are really stepping things up a notch with the colors. Very beautiful.
  24. Don't get much scrolling time anymore, but I did squeeze in one over a 5 week period. This is a pattern by Jacob and Wayne Fowler. Book titled "Woodworker's Pattern Book, 78 Realistic Fretwork Animals" The pattern is made to be done with one piece of wood, but I figured out how to at least make the head with White Aspen. the body and stand are Black Walnut. I/2" thick.
