  1. Wot? No vinyl?? Rob
  2. Best of luck Scott. Keep at it, you'll get there. Rob
  3. What a fantastic piece. That's right up my alley and your cutting is beautiful. I am not an expert on finishing. Usually I dip my pieces in 50/50 BLO and turpentine but sometimes find the wood absorbs more through the end grain and end up with a result I don't like. Whatever you decide, experiment on scrap offcuts first. Rob

    Fretwork Tray

    Thanks, It is 10" x 6" x 3" tall approx. or 25 x 15 x 7.5cm Rob
  5. Great work as always Dave. It looks so fragile in places and yet the inner circle round the initial is so well cut it is perfectly round. Very well done. Rob
  6. Wow that's great Paul. I love the contrasting woods. Rob
  7. Wow Steve, those are great. I love the cherry, I hope they sell well for you. Rob : )
  8. Two for the price of one. Great cutting. Rob

    Thanks Ralph, The sides are 5/16ths so not too bad to stack cut. 50/50 BLO changes the colour dramatically. Here is a picture of it on the saw for comparison. You wouldn't think it was the same piece! Rob

    Fretwork Tray

    Thanks Jeff, I'm lucky to be able to find bits of rimu at the dump fairly regularly but there's lots we can't get here, like Baltic Birch ply and our DIY stores only carry pine generally. The choice you guys have is amazing! Rob
  12. Fretwork tray designed by Steve Good cut from some rimu tongue and groove from the back of an old wardrobe and a piece of drawer side for the base. One coat of 50/50 BLO and mineral turpentine. I will give it a coat of beeswax once it is fully dry. This was fun to cut and I was able to stack cut the sides and ends which saved time. Rob
  13. Great cutting Marg what a likeness. Rob
  14. Well that ought to get you some free TV advertising! Not sure you need it at the moment though Rob

    Beatles Plaque

    Good idea, it is quite small. Would be easier to cut a bit larger too. Rob
  16. I have been wanting to cut this for some time and finally got around to it. Pattern is by Steve Good. Rob
  17. That is a labour of love but so worth it. Fantastic result. Rob
  18. Very nice Jerry. Love it. Rob
  19. Maybe Mahendra (Multitom) might be able to help? Rob
  20. That might just be your best yet. Very nice indeed. Rob
  21. Stunning pyrography. Really beautiful. Rob
  22. Yikes. That's a wake up call. Get better soon Ron. Rob
  23. Astonishing Randy. Just astonishing! Rob
  24. Beautiful job Jay. I love the contrast between the BB and the wood. Really makes them stand out. Rob
