    You might also give some thought to Paul's idea of a bag of cement mix on the bottom.

    I think when I bought 100 I paid about $8 plus tax. Free shipping but that was 2 years ago.

    I knew you could do it!

    Us too. We watch for their blunders. A clock that changes time between scenes, or a drink that changes levels. So many things. I love watching a "mechanic" working on a car with a hammer. Or tuning an engine while on a creeper underneath the car. They need to hire us to oversee theses things.

    Well, I'd have said "that's how the pattern was drawn and I wondered about that too" and never looked back.

    I'm sorry Paul. I suffer from OCD and when the symmetry is off, my eyes spot it. I can't help it. Drives my wife nuts too.

    Dan, did I spot a vein that you missed or is that the way the pattern is? Down at the bottom, to the right of center there is no vein to match the one on the left.

    Did you go up to the top of the browser window where the website address is located. The one that shows where you are at that point in time? Should work as a clickable link. Are you on your phone or a pc?

    Nice job Dan. I had that same experience with warped wood. We do get lucky sometimes. I like the message. It'll be fun to track down the designer.

    Would it be wrong to possibly color the butterflies in 3 different colors and paint the surrounding frame a light shade. Maybe an of-white? I think if done in the right colors it would be very pretty.

    Just go to wherever you found the labels, highlight the address bar so that the whole site address is highlighted, right click on it and choose copy. Then go wherever you want to put it and right click again and hit paste. Nothing to it.

    Kevin put me onto them a couple of years back. My biggest problem is that I'm truly a miser and I tend to keep all the little scraps of the labels when I cut them out. I hate to waste them so I have a stack of them but never seem to have one big enough for what I need.

    Go to the Works in Progress/Tutorial forum a couple of clicks down from this one. Kris Martinson has put together a great tutorial on using Gimp 2.0 for doing just what you want.

    Very nice Denny. I guess I'm going to have to give them spirals a try sometime.
  15. OCtoolguy
    Thanks for the great update. I also use the shipping labels. I use either the shelf liner or blue tape but once the shipping label is on I put a covering of the clear tape. I like this process and it works well. I don't do much stack cutting but I will in the future.

    Well, whenever I get in a Zen mood, that's when I either screw up or injure myself. Just sayin......

    I sure hope you did the outsides on the bandsaw. A good circle cutting jig will do wonders.
  18. OCtoolguy
    The idea is good. You just need to "work out" the kinks. There are many videos on Youtube that might help.
  19. OCtoolguy
    Maybe a drop of blue LocTite is called for.
  20. OCtoolguy
    Yes, I forgot about the arm. You didn't pick the saw up by the arm did you? That's a definitie NO NO.
  21. OCtoolguy
    The only thing that could happen is if the motor bolts came loose. That's where you adjust the aggressive cut.
  22. OCtoolguy
    The "great escape"?
  23. OCtoolguy
    I thought something bad happened to your cat. Gladly not.
  24. OCtoolguy
    Beautiful job of patterning and cutting. I love the old west too. I wish there were more shows on tv.
  25. OCtoolguy
    You too huh? Just "celebrated" 50 years together. And I have the whip marks to prove it.
