  1. Nice work Becky!
  2. Cool job!
  3. Or better yet, cut it free hand! I've done several jigsaw puzzles, none with a pattern. Before I cut the first one, I took a sheet of scrap 1/4" ply and did some practice cuts. After a few minutes, I was ready to cut the puzzle. My icon is the first jigsaw puzzle I did!
  4. Yup, that's how I do it!
  5. Nice work!
  6. That's some nice work Tim!
  7. In addition to sacrificing, a thicker stack will give you better control of the work and less chance of the blade digging into the thin board. I never cut anything thinner than 1/4" without stacking.
  8. Looks good Todd!
  9. Great work as usual Rob!
  10. I saw that yesterday in the post from Fox Chapel. Congratulations Rolf, it looks like a fun project!
  11. I don't paint!
  12. I have never used them. With proper blade choice, saw speed, feed rate and good cutting techniques, you shouldn't need them.
  13. Great cutting Jim! I think the details make the portrait!
  14. I like your thinking Brad!
  15. I like your thinking Brad!
  16. I think it came out great!
  17. Those are great Dan!
  18. I too use Aileens tacky glue for all my scroll saw crafts. It grabs and sets up fast, dries clear and usually does not need clamping. I still use Titebond for general woodworking like glueing up wider boards, but for crafts such as you are doing, I would use Aileens tacky glue. You can find it at craft stores like Hobby Lobby and Miacheal's.
  19. Bummer Nathan! Chalk it up to experience, you'll know better next time.
  20. Hey Monti, you sure like those hard, dense woods don't cha? So do I! It looks great, nice job!
  21. Edward, what blade and wood are you using? I use strictly hardwoods for ornaments, 3/16", three layers with no problems. Usually use FD UR or Olson R blades. I never have chip out on the bottom one. Maybe some fuzzies, but no chip out.
  22. Looks good Rob!
  23. Welcome to the Village Larry, it's a pleasure to meet you! Where in California are you? I'm in Moorpark in Ventura Co. It looks like you have a lot to offer, so come on in and join the fun!
  24. Great job Dan, it will surely please!
  25. Nice one Ralph!
