That looks great Paul and a great idea! How big is the hole? It might make a good clock if the hole can be adjusted to 1 3/8” to fit a clock fit up.

Anyone make any of the kinetic sculptures out on the market?

For 3/4 hardwood or BB, I would use a #5 or larger. Saw speed is up to you. I tell my students to start with a medium speed. If you are cutting and it’s dragging, turn up the speed. If you can’t stay on the line because the speed is too fast, slow it down. Saw speed is a matter of comfort. Whatever speed is comfortable, is the right speed. Before you start on good wood, practice on scrap wood. -
Nice!

Looks good to me Charlie!

Hey Clyde, glad to see you back! So sorry about your Wife, but life goes on. Looking forward to your participation.

Have you tried disconnecting the foot switch?

The pieces don’t have to look alike, as long as you have good keys and slots.

They look great Ken but, save yourself some steps and cut the pieces free hand. You don’t have to attach a pattern if you cut free hand. My avatar is my first puzzle. It was cut completely freehand, no pattern. It is also a calendar page. When I decided to do this puzzle, I practiced on a scrap piece of 1/4” BB. Once I got the hang of it, I went for it. I think it came out great!

They are very nice Ron, but I think we need just a little more information.

I have a Pegas on order, expected to ship at the end of the month. Obviously, I haven’t used it yet, but I expect it to perform and last better than my DeWALTS have.

Well Charlie, you look pretty young! I figured you were bald like Charlie Brown, but you have a full head of hair! You did an excellent job on the pattern and the cutting!

I use Red Oak. Although thin oak can be fragile, I have no problem using it in certain applications, like as an overlay with a backer board. I’m getting ready to cut some dream catchers out of 3/4” Red Oak.

All great looking work Jim!

You know he is working on it as we speak.

I have meet Paul Schurch and have seen some of his work. He did a presentation at our woodworking club, then held a class in his Santa Barbara studio. I didn’t attend the class as I could not afford it at the time, but I wish I had. He does some amazing work!

Ray @octoolguy took a marquetry class, and he is as old as you, Paul. I’m sure he will chime in here shortly.
