  1. Just finished this clock, pattern from Sheila Landry, could not resist to count the holes as I drilled them on the drill press. So there are 158 entry holes in this clock and lot's of them it took longer to get the blade in and out then to cut the holes. LOL Since the wife loves butterflies I guess it was worth it.
  2. Your scrollsaw does not need any oil or grease, I have mine for 3 years maybe 500 hours of cutting and I never did a thing to it.
  3. Sorry boys no more reno for me I had enough and if mother Nature look at the calendar it is time for golf season soon I hope.
  4. Sheila Landry pattern # SLD 513 and you get the 3 leaves
  5. Just about done with house renovations, installed two sinks in master suite, replaced hardwood floor with tiles in the kitchen, tiled the fire place from floor to ceiling, got all the kitchen cabinets refaced and the complete main floor of the house has been repainted. Just manage a few hours here and there in the hobby shop in the basement.
  6. I have made lot's of mini birdhouses, everybody loved them. I used 1/8 dowel for the perch to hold the bird and also I used lint from the dryer to put in the hole with a little bit of dried grass, just put a little bit of glue in the hole and then put the lint and grass in. Attached are some finish products and some are still in the unfinish state.

  12. Hi Denny Welcome to the village I moved from SSW also too much hassle with the change to the site. You will find lot's of nice people here very friendly and quite busy, please post some of your works because you are an artist with the scrollsaw.

  16. I made myself a room in the basement for my hobby shop, got 2 dust filters on when I'm using the saw.
  17. I used Tung oil on all my trivet and so far no problem at all. Yes mineral oil not spirits unless you want them to catch fire. LOL
  18. Bird houses, bird houses birds houses also Christmas ornaments
  19. Very nice work, must have lot's of patience because the sanding part takes a long time. I made one out of a 2"x4" and I know that the shaping and sanding is a lot of work but the end result is really worth it. This is a master piece that you have.
  20. Very nice it looks sharp excellent cutting. Will look good anywhere ins house.
  21. This is beautiful, excellent cutting you should be proud to have created such a piece.
  22. I think I will stick to wood for the scroll saw. Thanks for all the replies.
  23. I have been scrolling for approx. 20 + years, started with Craftsman,Ryobi, now Excalibur. Enjoy every minutes of it.
  24. I use an adjustable office chair, castors still on it, sonI can roll around. I have a very small shop in the basement and I made my own stand for my Excalibur. I agree with the other it is what you prefer, I started with a stool but I found the office chair more comfy.
  25. We are lucky here in Ontario, we have a place where you can get ink for most printer at a fraction of the cost. I have an Epson printer at Staples the cartridges are approx. $20 to $25 dollars, I get the same cartridge for less than $5 at this place. I agree with everybody the ink is more expensive than the printer. We are the throw away society.
