Quality of the photo is about right in the scrolling world...folks like to 'borrow patterns without permission' Is the acrylic a 'clear/translucent' material? I'd think it would be cool with the sun hitting it! Scott (what kind of size too) B

Very neat! Never thought about bowls with a scroll..... already have the lathe and a ringmaster 723, maybe I can talk her into a few for the craft table? Scott (inspiring) B

Very cool! Scott (showing this to her) B

All great advise! It was one of the 'starter packs' containing 12ea in three different sizes. Not sure what size she handed me to 'flatten' but I know now....a way not to do it. She reloaded with a #5 UR FD and went to town. I'll order more tomorrow(personal thing about ordering on a weekend).... And try again. Scott (she was having too much fun) B

I'll know next time to get flat ends, or at least look to be sure the ends are flat. I just whacked a spiral with a hammer on some steel I have. Well, not so good...before the thing became 'flat ended'....it snapped. Scott (errrrr.......order some more) B

Amazing! The two tone back is definitely a winner! Scott (just chillin', waitin' on the grillin') B

The "one-that-must-be-obeyed" requested some spiral blades to try-out. No problem! I ordered them and she received them. Problem is, the yelling..... She puts the blades in and tightens the blade into place, starts the cut, and BING....blades are popping out almost immediately on touching wood. She wants to smash them so the set screw will hold better.... I need to know if taking a hammer and beating the 'spiral' on the end flat is going to make the blades 'weak' or anything? Scott (I hate the rain....no milling for me) B

"Free wood supplier"? Tell us more.... Love the grain use and the finish looks to be great! Scott (I'm cheap but not free) B

Can see those sitting on a dining room table with pride during this upcoming Christmas season! Scott (I don't like shoveling that stuff though) B

Nice use of the grain too! Scott (very cool slingin') B

Sorry, should have mentioned the timber type. It is Eastern Red Cedar or even Aromatic Cedar, but I like to call it juniperus virginiana that I harvested from a farmers field(he wanted more grass growing, and I wanted his trees for my sawmill, win-win!) Thanks everyone! She sure did great....and the sign has already started 'working'. Have four going out to Iowa on Monday! Scott (I like sales) B

Completely completed. I've taken the time to photo each duck call and then post them on a FaceBook page I set up. The page is still just an 'infant' in the world od FaceBook pages, so I'll just have to keep promoting it and see where it goes. So proud of my wife and the great job....errrr, I mean fun she had doing this one. BTW, if anyone is looking..... Scott (did you hear about the Whooper making folks poop green) B

In the pen turning world, we use vacuum to get total penetration...and it doesn't matter the tint, stain, or dye used. I have a 5 gallon chamber and can draw almost 28inches of mercury(a lot of vacuum in my location). I get my dyes from Blick Scott (it's nice outside today) B

This is the very reason I started my website. I was upset with the local HD/Lowes/three other 'small' stores in the area. Now I'm a week away from taking delivery on another sawmill that can cut 21ft long and 23in wide, in increments of as little as 1/16th inch thickness! Woohoo!!!!! Scott (need me a sawdust fix) B

Inspiring for sure!!!! ONLY 18 hours? I'm looking at this and seeing a month for me. Then again, I don't get that much time on the saw.... For those of us not in the know(yet), are the plans for this available as 'mailed to you plans' or 'downloads'? And where do you advise to get Charles plans from? Scott (awesome stuff) B
