  1. Excellent work Dick, nice frame and all. She will love it for sure.
  2. You sure did not loose your touch it is beautiful,excellent choice of wood
  3. We should be there around December 17 or 18 looking forward to get together for some good times.
  4. Weather getting pretty cold up here so I made some stuff for the coming season, nice and warm in my basement. Halloween and Xmas decoration from Steve Good, leaves from Sue Mey (compound cut) and of course I had to make some more bird houses to get rid of some scrap wood.
  5. Welcome aboard, if you started with spiral blades, you will find straight blades will be boring for you.
  6. Welcome to the best place for new and old scrollers lot’s of very knowledgeable and friendly folks here to help,
  7. Another convert, glad you liked them.
  8. Bought this filter about one year ago and you will not believe the amount of dust this unit collected, I vacuumed the paper filter monthly and the material filter inside is still like new, nothing seems to go through. The only bit of problem that I had with it, it seems that the remote was affected by another remote, they send me a new remote and all is well now. Will recommend the unit and give it 5 stars.
  9. I have used MInwax Tung Oil on lot's of oak and pine live edge and they turned out great.
  10. That's a beauty you're the man
  11. I also agree with Ray
  12. Very nice gift I'm sure they will appreciate
  13. The patterns are from Diana Thompson, I understand that she might be ill, but you can get her patterns on Pinterest
  14. No just my hands, never had any problems and using either FDUR5 or Pegas GT5
  15. Big welcome back
  16. They are not too deep but the one using 1 1/8" thick wood has a pretty good size and you can always play with the cut angle. The turkey napking holders are from Steve Good.
  17. Made a couple of collapsible basket on using 3/4" oak and the other 1 1/8" Douglas fir, also since Thanksgiving is getting close here in Canada made some napkin holders. Also I got a few holders for the bird houses or other things. Busy in the shop.
  18. He always wanted to see the wood prior to cutting my 3D bird houses, well here it is. I used pieces of scrap and glue them together to get the proper dimensions either 1 1/4" or 1 1/2" square, next glue the pattern to the wood, drill 1/8" hole for the perch, 1/2" Forster bit for the entry to the house. Now we move to cutting I start with the face of the bird house and then re tape it together and cut the other side of the pattern. Take it apart and you have the end products.
  19. I had the Pegas clamps for over 2 months now and they are far better than the original from Excalibur, no complaints at all.
  20. My vote goes to Freud also, I have them on my table saw and miter saw, also they can be sharpen many times and still worked to perfection.
  21. That is a beautiful pattern and you really did it justice, great job.
  22. That is really nice piece of work
  23. Dick they are really easy to cut, the sanding shaping part can be a bit tedious but if the cutting angle is right, the shaping and sanding are not bad. The angle depends on the thickness of the wood and the number of rings.
  24. Had some pieces of scrap Wenge that was always in my way, so I decided to glue it together with cherry and cut a bowl. It did turn out not too bad, a little bit out of line because after I applied the pressure it moved a little bit well nobody I saw perfect. LOL
  25. Great news so far I hope it does not get worse for you and also your property
