    My sister used to run a church sale. Her definition of a success was making the table cost! I guess I was a success!

    Did a "summer" market today. Debated going because of the weather. Decided to go because they were doing, and did, a lot of advertising. Shoulda stayed home. Glad I wore my down vest with rain jacket and had gloves. Would have prefered the winter coat. Temperature was 10 celcius with wind gusting to 60 kph and intermittentrain showers. The cinder blocks held the borrowed canopy. Couldn't do the setup as planned because of the wind. Sales wise, I made table cost plus $20. The bragging right is I survived the sh*t weather.

    Don, It isn't all that bad to cut. I probably should have used different blades. I find the open "sides" difficult to finish. I typically dip in Tung Oil and it doesn't finish the edges very well. I should probably be putting a sealer on first but it is hard on a fret work piece.

    Sounds tasty.

    I did stack cut. I am not a fan of the material I used. There was a fair bit of breakout on the back side.

    Very nice. What are Grinder sandwiches?

    John, I just cut some scrap book paper (card stock) to fit the spaces. The rest is a dark blue. I have read your article in adding colour and will give it a try on another project.

    Thanks for the link. Spent some time looking through the freebies. Grabbed a few to cut.

    Finally got these finished in time for my sale on Thursday. Framed with cheap frames because I have no idea how to make frames! lol! Colour is just scrap booking paper taped to the back. The wood is craft mdf plywood from KJP Select Hardwoods.

    So, just cause I can't seem to wrap my head around this, the "puzzle" is a picture that you glued to the wood then cut into the puzzle!?

    Excellent cut. Try a pizza box for shipping.

    Beautiful job. The inlay really pops and the purple heart compliments the inlay nicely.

    Yes, $50 each. I am like you in the thought of "if it doesn't interest me, how can it excite anyone else."

    About a month ago I was at an event and started discussing scroll saw stuff. Was showing someone some of my pictures (because I always have my phone/photo album with me). He really liked the pendant sized gear heart I had made and asked about the larger size. Said he would buy. Went home and made a couple, thinking if he didn't buy I could always put them in my inventory for craft sales. I did send him an email but never heard back. Saw him yesterday and showing him the picture of the two I cut. He wants a third. Luckily I have just enough of the Sapelle (free from another friend) to do a third heart. All sold at $50 each. Wood is sapele & maple. All gifted from another woodworking friend - they were his "scraps".

    I will second Ray - recovering isn't difficult at all.

    One of my favorite songs. Great cutting.
