  1. Wow, that seems very high. I have mine set so my arms are, more or less, at a 90* angle. I remember my mom's teaching of correct placement for piano - arms at 90 and you should be able to have an eraser on your wrists without it falling off.
  2. I made this cake topper in 2019. It would have been for my grandson's first birthday.
  3. Those are beautiful pieces. I am sure they will be stunning when the finish is on. What a thoughtful gift.
  4. Nicely written. I think I will still use flats. I have not had much success with spirals. I do agree that a drilled hole looks like a drilled hole. I try to "feather out" the line if I have the room. I did that process on a few of the lines on this project.
  5. Another beauty.
  6. Well done.
  7. Well done. I sure they will appreciate the gift.
  8. That font is called Wondrous from DaFont.
  9. Well done Jerry.
  10. I like that font. If you do find the name of it, please post it. I do a different style of name puzzles and will use a couple of different fonts. I like Sniglet and ???? can't remember the names right now!
  11. Fabulous job on both. I sure the other gifts will be just as beautiful.
  12. Both beautiful works. I also love the lighthouse. Whose pattern?
  13. Looks great.
  14. Looks good. Can see it only because you pointed it out. Sand it and put the finish on. Then show it to your nephew, let him decide.
  15. Great card Don. RJ - love that idea. I just sent my uncle a card for his 95th birthday, it was $11 with tax. Then another $2 to mail it to him.
  16. Here are the results from the Prairie Carving show. Do ribbons count if you are the only entrant?
  17. You know I have a large boat - right? This is a Carver 3607. Hubby doesn't like driving it so I am the main "captain". We boat on Lake of the Woods in NW Ontario.
  18. Thank you all for the encouraging words. Here is a video of my swim. I am the one with the black suit and cap. It was not my best swim. I got turned around on one of the moves. I don't know where we placed, we didn't hang around. There was another team from Thunder Bay that included a 72 year old man. VID-20250413-WA0004.mp4
  19. I ran into a friend the other week. She is a member of the Prairie Canada Carvers Association http://prairiecanadacarvers.com/. They are having their annual competition/show this weekend. She talked me into submitting a couple of my intarsia pieces for judging. Dropped them (Dogwood Flowers and Angelfish) off last night. Pick up on Sunday. Unfortunately I won't be able to attend any part of the show due to another competition going on. For those that don't know, I am also a competitive synchronized swimmer and we have a major competition this weekend.
  20. If @don in brooklin on hadn't already chimed in, I would have said Don. Don, Thanks for the simple patterns. I always use the phone stand pattern you posted, but will personalize it for people. I have stopped cutting the circle on the stand.
  21. Well done! Beautiful shaping.
