  1. Had the board done and it was just hanging out on the bench. So I figured had better finish an make some checkers for it. Board is 16x16 made with walnut & poplar. Checkers are stained dowel rod, rosewood & ebony.
  2. Great ideas! Going to use dowel rod cutting on a bandsaw. I don’t have a lathe. Thanks!
  3. I have a checker board that I made awhile back. Now I need to make a set of checkers to go with it. I was thinking about 1 1/4” around. Now the question, what would be some of your ideas on best way to make them? Thanks
  4. Think maybe he was meaning after doing a bevel cut forgot to reset.
  5. Thanks Roly for the pattern. Wasn’t sure about changing it, some people get thin skinned about that. I gave it to my barber today and he really liked it. Said people are always asking when they can get a free haircut Lol Thanks for all the comments!
  6. Phantom posted the pattern with scissors in the middle. Steve Good had a pattern with the comb, scissors and barber pole. So I used both to come up with this. Made with red oak and walnut overlay.
  7. Looks like he is saying “what ever “ lol
  8. Just the other day I needed a piece and would you know I found one that the pattern fit on just right. This is what causes a person to keep from throwing out the small stuff. LOL
  9. Sometimes I will use a propane torch on very small flame. Takes the fuzziness off fast. By the way you sure married up! LOL
  10. Thanks for the info!
  11. Phantom Scroller’s pattern that he loaded into the pattern vault.
  12. Found this pattern made by Phantom Scroller and was thinking there needs to be some bridges in the O's and R's. But not sure if I am just not seeing right (happened before lol) Going to make this for my barber.
  13. Very nice display and honor! My wife has the bee & hive pattern for making a stained glass window. Didn’t think about cutting it in wood.
  14. The dove is a Sue Mey pattern. Made using hickory & walnut. The man cave is a Steve Good pattern. Made out of quarter sawed red oak with a painted plywood backer.
  15. Nice video! Never seen someone use there hold down foot. Mine went from box to trash can.
  16. When I paint a backer I will use painters tape around the edges so it leaves a boarder of bear wood for the glue. Then I will use a roller to apply glue to the piece.
  17. Madd soccer player?
  18. I have used the 77 3M on colored paper for backer attached to plywood but after about a year the paper came detatched from the wood. Maybe I didn’t do something right.
  19. I cut one out of popular using a #5 MG Pegas blade. Which is my go to blade for anything 1/2” or more.
  20. Don't see the trophies anymore, Travis take them away?
  21. Went to Alex's site but couldn't find the pattern. Can you help to point out were to find it? Thanks
  22. Don’t know how you bend blades to the point of breaking them. You can feel if the blade is not over the table hole if it stops going down. If not over the hole move the blank a hair. When I started scroll sawing I tried both ways an right away seen that it was much easier to see the hole on top instead of raising blank for each hole. I will sometimes not pick up the blank until the pattern is cut.
  23. With the blade pointing down it will be over the hole in the table. Just move blank hole under the blade.
  24. Never heard of silky oak, very pretty wood. Good looking box!
