  1. My Walmart carries it. I bought two rolls. I'll have to go back and see what they have left. Maybe buy another 1/2 dozen rolls if they have that many.
  2. Thanks Alex. I'll check that out. Not sure I had the fiber going that way. I'll try again.
  3. Nice job on that. A lot of kids will want that.
  4. I'm amazed on how you know what piece goes where. Great video.
  5. WoW Kevin, I didn't know you knew how to do intarsia. Gives me hope now. Great job on that.
  6. Well Alex, I tried making this today with no luck. I used 1/8 inch stock and stacked cut 3 at a time with no problem. I had enough to make 3 of them (18 gears). The problem I had was when I tried to cut the space out on the bottom, the first cut went through fine but when I made the second cut, everyone of them snapped off .The plans call for 4mm which is 1/8 inch by the chart I have. What am I doing wrong. I made them the size of the pattern.
  7. That came out great. Are those 1 x 6 boards glued together.
  8. I mpaid $800.00 for my Ex 21 and glad I did. I love it. You can't go wrong and if you can get the same thing for $550.0, go fo it. I also have a 788 which I never use now that I have the Ex21.
  9. That's what I paid for mine a couple years ago, everything included.
  10. Hang in there. Remember, we were all beginners at one point. Buy some good blades to. Blades that come with the saw are junk. Trow them away. If your going to use 1/8 or 1/4 inch wood, stack cut 2 or 3 pieces together and tape them together. A # 5 blade is good on 3/4 or larger. I use a #3 for most of my cutting and a # 2. Give them a try and you'll see a big difference. Don't be afraid to experiment on scrap wood..
  11. WoW Dave, that is just stunning. I'm still trying to figure out how to do the different colors of wood.
  12. I love the two tone wood. How did you manage that and what type of wood is it.
  13. That came out good. I never think of those 40% coupons
  14. Hi, the old saying, practice makes perfect. Don't give up. If your cutting 1/4 inch ply, try and stack cut two or three together and use a #3UR blade. Tape the pieces together with clear box tape. That will also help lubricate the blade. It's harder to control 1/4 inch ply if your only cutting one at a time. I would also try and cut a little faster so the blade cuts better. You shouldn't have a lot of sanding. Don't be afraid to change your blades if they seem to start cutting rough. Hope that helps a little.
  15. Great job on that. Looks a little tedious. I might give it a try. Can this be stacked cut or do you have to do one at a time. Thanks for the pattern.
  16. Thiose came out good. A little different way to do names. I like it.
  17. Kevin, it looks like you did a little more than piddle around. I love the Jesus ones.
  18. Nice cutting on that Kevin. Looks pretty big.
  19. Looks great. Love Oak.
  20. Those came out good. I like the different woods you used.
  21. Looks good Wayne. Great color combination.
  22. Looks like mine. Made mine the other day. Giving it to my Granddaughter today. Looks good on the base.
  23. Thanks everyone for the compliments.
  24. Dick, those are all awesome. There's a lot of work on that Lord's Prayer. Do you stack cut any of that.
