    Marie, how much beeswax to you mix it with? Do you think that the shellac could be mixed with only the beeswax and not adding turp & blo?

    Welcome from Winnipeg! (originally from Moose Jaw) Your work looks great.

    I had a few "trees of life" that didn't have all the foliage.
  5. barb.j.enders
    Very nice.

    For those that have an EX - do you wax your table? There is a "coating" on it, so I am not sure it needs a wax.

    Great work.

    Thanks all for the kind and encouraging words.

    Thanks. Struggling with getting the pieces to be tight together. Guess I will just have to get through all 50 fans.

    Just having "fan". Patterns from The Book of Fans - designs for stained glass by Leslie Sharp. Playing around with segmentation and adding shims for height. The boat is coloured with Unicorn Spit and coated with Osmo satin finish. The tulips are acrylic paint and coated with beeswax butter. Not sure what wood the boat is. Tulips cut from red oak. Both cut with #1 MG blade.

    Amazing cutting. You can use the "off cuts" to make another sign!

    I use a bar chair thst isn't on wheels. I am too afraid that, in my sloped room, I would just roll away. I have some challenges at times with it rotating while I am at one of my benches.

    I find, when cutting circles, to cover (with my hand) part of the lines. That way, I am focused on what is right there and not looking too far ahead. I hope this makes sense. Barbara, the other one!

    The painting really brings it to life. Great job.

    Thanks. This is a from a larger piece of wood that has been sitting in my basement for 4ish years. The price tag was still on it - $9.99/bf. I got a friend to plane the rest of it after I did this piece.

    Thanks all.
  17. barb.j.enders
    Thanks. The wood is about an inch thick.

    I am not going to put a hook on it but leave it up to whoever buys it.

    Latest piece. Solid Cherry cut with #3 mg blade. Finished with a coat of shellac then beeswax/mineral oil. I do not remember where I got the pattern

    They all look great
  21. barb.j.enders
    Yes they would be and yes I have searched for them. I find it easier to just turn the vacuum off for the short time instead of the hassle of undoing the strapping for the jar & dealing with the sawdust.

    Dick, You have done an amazing job. The rope around the frame is a great addition. If you do plan to recut and add the rope, my only suggestion would be to put the join in the corner with the anchor there. I would also place that on the right hand corner by the bow of the boat. That is generally where a boat anchors from.

    This isn't a great picture of the scrollnado on my dewalt. I have circled the top hose. I just used the holder that it came with. The lower hose was attached as mentioned above. Underneath is the Seyco "Metro" vac. I have the older style scrollnado. I did lose a couple of small pieces so learned to turn the vacuum off when cutting very tiny pieces. None of the small pieces blocked the hose.
  24. barb.j.enders
    cute.

    I spent a bit of time yesterday and got the Seyco/Scrollnado system hooked up. I did leave the plastic backer in place. The lower hose is just friction fit on the lower blade guard. Works surprisingly well. @jerry waltersI have noise cancelling headphones that i use as well. Thanks to everyone for your replies.
