  1. Had a go at making a scroll saw shell, there's a few bits that didn't go quite to plan but for a first attempt I'm quite pleased with how it came out. It just needs a few coats of shellac.
  2. Here's mine, plastic test tubes and the rack was made out of scraps.
  3. That looks great, nice clean cuts, very well done, if I can make a suggestion, As the names are attached to a base when cut you don't need to have the letters so close together, touching each other, if you know what I mean?.
  4. Nicely done, love the inlay part then the writing,
  5. Very nice, excellent cutting
  6. Awesome work there.
  7. Very nice dick, just the right amount of colour
  8. Thankyou all for your comments
  9. Made this one for my wife, added the rest of her name and a mirror to finish it off, just needs to be treated now.
  10. Now that is beautiful, I'm sure she'll be over the moon to receive this.
  11. Wow! What a awesome piece, hope it raises enough to help your daughter and best of luck to her with the fundraising.
  12. Excellent work, I have always loved that pattern, it's been in my todo folder now for months
  13. Thank you, I had thought about that but everyone has different tastes and you can't keep everyone happy.
  14. Thank you Kevin, they are never ending, but I am in the process of making a special one with something extra (sssshhh its a secret) will post pix soon.
  15. Hi Dave the box is 72mm (about 3 inch) deep, I did explain how to build these a while back, they are similar to bandsaw boxes except the draw segments have to be cut out on a scroll saw in two parts as its too thick to go in the saw.
  16. I just received a pic from a lady who ordered a letter box for her daughter after she had decorated and I think it looks great. I'm glad they are happy with it.
  17. I love doing portraits also, yours are looking good
  18. Great work Kevin, love that colour blue
  19. Hi Denny there are numerous videos on Youtube doing reviews on the dust deputy, you should check them out
  20. Hi Roly, before I built this I just had the vac in the shed and was about as loud as any normal vac but because I had limited Hoover hose I have relocated to behind the shed next to the cyclone and I can hardly hear it now, having the cyclone attached doesn't make it any louder.
  21. Hi Len, i think it must have been the suction but I was only using an old draper wet and dry vac I had given to me.
  22. Hi Kevin, the suction pipe is about 3/4 of the way down the cone so it doesn't suck the dust straight in, I haven't used any water in it I just used an old water butt as my collection tub as it was a lot thicker than any bucket or bin I had.
  23. Very nice work
  24. Love it, I loved the movie and this project is done to perfection
  25. I was given a draper what and dry vac a while ago but the casing was broken so I had to mount it on a piece of wood. So I desired I would have a go at making I cyclonic dust collection system, after watching numerous videos on YouTube on how to build these so I got to work and built my first but the water butt I was using kept collapsing in on itself , So I went back to the drawing board(YouTube) and found a video using a traffic cone so I got me a cone and had to build a frame around the come to stop it collapsing in on itself, but the water butt kept collapsing so I got hold of a steel oil drum and mounted the cone onto that and it works a treat.
