  1. Looks great Paul. Brilliant idea to use the Aspen on the head.
  2. Fabulous cutting Dick
  3. Beautiful
  4. Looks great. I have made a few. One that I copied at the correct size and two that were much smaller. I found them quite easy to cut/paint/assemble except for the hanger. I still don't get it right
  5. Steve Good has a bunch of kitchen patterns.
  6. That is a great looking puzzle box.
  7. Welcome back Kevin. As the other Kevin says - DON'T OVERDO!
  8. Great cutting and idea to add the glasses!
  9. Very nice.
  10. A couple of quick Steve Good puzzles for winter craft sale. Passed the hubby test....he couldn't figure them out!
  11. I have used shellac, amoung other finishes. You can mix your own shellac. Buy the flakes and dissolve in 99%isopropyl alcohol. I couldn't find denatured alcohol so the guitar place I bought the shellac flakes recommended the isopropyl alcohol. That I purchased at the local pharmacy.
  12. That is a lovely piece Dick. The carving is spot on. I can't imagine that heat. We had a few days where it felt like 100, with the humidity.
  13. I had found the Unicorn Spit at a wholesaler here in the city. It was great! Unfortunately, the warehouse has closed here. Not sure where I will buy now!
  14. That is a beautiful piece.
  15. Both are well done.
  16. Finally got some shop time this week. I was able to get this cute little guy done. Cut from Aspen with a #1 mg blade. The colour is done with Unicorn Spit. Backer is BB ply, about 6" diameter. Finished with Walrus Oil. Pattern was from https://www.sg-patterns.com/slides/Glass pattern 002 Dragonfly Delight.html via a posting on one of the FB pages I subscribe to. I was also able to get a number of other cut, but not finished, projects finished!
  17. Very cute. I also like @heppnerguy's suggestion for it to be the exhaust pipe.
  18. Here a just a couple of many. The bears were for my grand kids at valentines.
  19. The finished pieces look great. Sorry it was such a journey to get there.
  20. I have a cardboard tube, from wrapping paper, that I use for old blades. Taped one end. Still filling it!
  21. Beautiful work @MarieC
  22. Such a stunning piece. Another heirloom piece.
