  1. I think she wears "rubber fingers". Like what bank tellers wore when counting money.
  2. Like Ray said, I don't wear gloves, loose tops or even jewelry. Anytime I have tried gloves, they never seem to be snug enough. I have sanded through a few nails over the years. Worst one was the middle of the nail. For small pieces, on the belt sander, I have been taping them to a larger piece for a better grip.
  3. Dick, That is another beautiful piece. Well done!
  4. That looks great. Alex Snodgrass did a similar puzzle box in the shape of an apple. A worm was the key and the stem was the magnet to pull the worm out.
  5. Happy Anniversary! Another great gnome. You are going to have to change your name to "GnomeMan!"
  6. It shows at the end of the video.
  7. First puzzle box. Followed the directions from the latest issue of the Scrollsaw magazine, mostly. It was a block of basswood from KJP woods. Didn't add the 1/4" layer because I knew I was painting it. Finished with beeswax butter (beeswax mixed with mineral oil) 20230612_185413.mp4
  8. So the back is now the front!
  9. A beautiful heirloom piece.
  10. I envy you folks being close to others to get together to meet in person. I feel very isolated at times! Thank goodness for the forum!
  11. Have you tried dollar stores!
  12. That's another beautiful piece. Such love for your wife.
  13. Norm, You could try ordering from Garnet Hall at Sawbird. https://www.sawbird.com/scroll_saw_blades.htm Also a fellow SK person. Unless you are only using Pegas blades.
  14. These would be some of my favourite outdoor projects. I don't have a picture of just the "Welcome to the Lake" sign, but I had one hanging on the boat until this spring when hubby dropped it. Now I need to cut another one. The puzzle is one of the spots we like to get to and anchor at for a couple of days. This is on Lake of the Woods, ON.
  15. Thanks all, for the encouraging words.
  16. They are actually both blues. One is a very dark, almost purple blue.
  17. Latest cuttings. Stack cut 1/4" bb ply. Cut with #3 mg blade. Finish is Danish oil - Fruitwood colour. Backer is card stock.
  18. Another wonderful looking pattern. I am not a country music fan, my tastes lean more towards jazz or soft rock.
  19. You are one step ahead of me. I haven't tried epoxy.
  20. How do you adjust the motor? I purchased a King 21 and still trying to "love" it.
  21. Hopefully this works for you.
