    Thanks. It was some Poplar that were the "scraps" from the 20 minute stackable puzzles.

    Like I am not already

    Now that we are both retired, we seem to alternate days for cooking and cleaning the kitchen.

    The only way to know is to try. I have used just some wax paper on the table before I start a project.

    Even in the basement, the cast iron table can be frigid. I have a pair of fingerless arm "socks" that I was using to keep the wrists and arms warm.

    The Isopropyl Alcohol is what the guys at Woodescence recommend (here in Canada). I picked up a box of 4 from Costco.

    Thanks for the video. Saw a few things there that I didn't see scrolling through the thread.

    I read, somewhere, to rest your wrists on the table. Kinda forces you to relax the arms. I will stop to drop my shoulders when I notice them creeping up. To me, it means I am holding the wood to tight!

    What great looking furry friends. We are currently pet free! I have attached the pattern. Hopefully it can be accessed. Cat love ready to print.svg

    It looks great. I didn't read all the comments about "how long" because it doesn't matter. I stopped trying to compare my times with others. I was getting very stressed when I wasn't cutting as fast as other were saying they could get something done. A fine example is the book "20 minute puzzles". I still haven't cut one in 20 minutes and I have cut at least 20 of those puzzles.

    Sorry for your loss.

    Thanks Dick.

    That is a lovely cutting you have shown. While it seems like a great idea, but why wait? I would be gifting them now so they can appreciate it with you.

    Welcome, glad you found us! Don't be afraid to ask questions. The only dumb ones are those unasked.

    Thanks @Foxfold for the pattern! I reduced it, which meant there was a "design" choice made while cutting. This was done as a quick cut instead of working on my tulips project because I received my Pegas blade chuck in the mail. This is about 7/8 thick walnut. Cut with #5 precision skip. One coat if shellac. There are some other issues but hubby didn't see them and they can't be seen from the front.

    She is adorable.

    Well done Dick. The colours certainly add to it.

    Lots of great info here so I am not going to add to it except.... if you are in Canada, order the Niqua or Pegas blades from Garnet Hall. Small buisness, great service & reasonable shipping. https://www.sawbird.com/tools.htm.

    If you have any option to push for the surgery, I would highly recommend. Had one eye done when I was 51 and the second eye 10 years later.

    Nice cuts. Hope you get the vision problem resolved.
