  3. Very nice work Joe!!
  4. Beautiful work Dale! As soon as I saw it, I knew it was a Berry Basket Pattern. You did a real nice job. My shop is my garage. I always have the garage door open when I spray lacquer.wearing a respirator is mandatory.
  5. Same here Jim! Have never been disappointed by them!
  6. That looks great Kris! Did you plan the layers or were they random? I’m sorry for your loss. My little buddy has been gone for about five years now, and I still miss him every day.
  7. Very creative and very nice work!
  8. Nice looking sign Edward!

  16. Here’s mine. 36”x24”. Hangs from joist above to keep out of the way when not in use. Been using this setup for about fifteen years. After the holiday season, I’ll replace the liner as it’s pretty worn.
  17. Beautiful gift Wayne!
  18. YOU’RE BACK!!! Looks good Brenda! Maybe some glitter spray paint, but make sure you wear a good filter mask.

    Yes, it is store bought. I was going to make my own, but found this antique solution at Lowe’s. I don’t remember the brand, I’ll have to check when I get a chance.
  20. Happy to see you back to your saw Brenda! Just take care of yourself and listen to what your body tells you.
  21. Nice!

    This is a Steve Good pattern. Made four sets. Three sets sold for $250 each. The fourth was gifted to my Mother- in law. All figures made from solid hardwoods including Aspen, Yellowheart, Purpleheart, Sapele Red Oak Walnut and Mahogany. The stable is laminated pine with an antique solution. The base is 3/8 Baltic Birch.
  23. It is readily available Ray. I can find it at Woodcraft. There are two hardwood dealers in Ventura County that carry it: Conejo Hardwoods and stone in Thousand Oaks and Myan hardwoods in Camarillo. Also there is an online wood dealer in Arizona called Woodworkers Source. Of course these sources only sell 4/4 thick boards, so you have to mill to the thickness you need. Just today, I needed 1/4” board for Christmas gifts. I had a 4’ Sapele board that I resawed on my table saw then planed to 1/4”. Out of that 4’ board I got 8 1/4” blanks!
  24. An easy way to eliminate staining entirely is to us hardwoods to cut your ornaments. I use Cherry, Maple, Mahogany, Red Oak, walnut, Sapele and what ever I have on hand. Applying an oil based topcoat will bring out the natural color and grain of the woods. I sell hundreds of ornaments a year, not a single one stained or painted!
  25. Well, I’ve known Marg for a long time, and I’m pretty sure she doesn’t leak. And she definitely isn’t a Lurker, she has near 20000 posts!
