Very nicely done and a fantastic wood rescue too.
-
Very nicely cut.

AS I was " Nort DeColder" - born and raised; I do like this project. We lived next door-- (well next farm over to "Ole & Swen" too.) Seriously, the small town we lived near -- Norwegian was spoken on the street all the time when I was in grade school. I can do the Norse accent well; but CANNOT do the German which is my full heritage at all!

Both are pretty and artistic too! Very good work. I am a fan of roses and also of western art; so you interested me twice!
-
Looks like it came straight out of northern MN! Very well done!
-
Nothing special, but it has an interesting story.

Agree 100%! -
A very nice job on it.
-
Just a reminder that is how addictions begin! I was addicted by lawn ornaments 65years ago now! A like the unusual and that is a great example of it! Wonderful job !
-
Neat A total project from rescued wood makes it even better!
-
Nicely done. I have never tried one-- might at some future time though.
-
I like it well. Good luck. It is a very nice pattern too.

I have bent wood with a wet cloth and a steam iron uing 1-by 2 stock to make a curved railing. It was slow but worked. I am sure the cut 2 pieces and clamping it between them when hot will work. It might take a couple of tries to get it where you want. A little less presure the first time; so bing careful not to crack it.

looks very fine to me.

Use rescued wood for the things that are just experiments anyway and have a BLAST! Somebody is always throwing away an old dresser or something else with a lot of real wood to use for the initial attempts. I use "rescued" wood for many things. Some local fencing companies will let you raid their dumpsters and some of what I get from there is totally new. It is just cut-offs and scraps to them; but very usable to me. Make things that you want to --"Just Because!" and enjoy doing it YOUR WAY!

I have to agree with Dick! And I make them too; just not as good as that one.
-
AGAIN A.K. being A.K.!
-
Yes, it does. Thanks for the answer too.
-
Very well done and not a just rectangular shape either; I like the more unique shape too.
-
I like them all. Did you cut on an angle on the trees and then glue them together?
-
Great Job! Hey; We can make what we want just for us === at least some oft he time.
-
Very neat.

When my DW 788 started to act very erratic; I looked at having it repaired and had sticker shock. It had to be thumped to get it to start sometimes and the speed would very noticeably surge up or down while cutting with out any reason. SO I bought one of these P-C ,s I thought that I would just use it and get the DW redone. Well I like it better than I actually liked the DW-. Speed remains more constant, MUCH better light situation, and a dust collector too. I have not used it quite as hard as I did the DW, but have cut 2 by (4-6) things many times and it has had excellent power too. To me the blade change is easier than it was on the DW also. The DW has the advantage of a 2 inch larger throat, that was the only thing better so far that I have found. I am actually looking at buying another like it to take in the 5th wheel trailer when we go.

I had bought (used) and then re-sold one of those saws. t was a good enough saw, BUT, I did not like the blade tension knob under the saw. For me it was awkward to reach. Some one else may prefer it there. It was powerful enough and light enough to move around easily too. I have become used to the blade tension on top and like that on any scrollsaw.
