  1. 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.
  2. That is some amazing cutting, you must have lot's of patience to create such results.
  3. Bottom feeder here with my Excalibur
  4. Very nice it is on my to do pile
  5. I made myself a room in the basement for my hobby shop, got 2 dust filters on when I'm using the saw.
  6. 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
  7. Bird houses, bird houses birds houses also Christmas ornaments
  8. 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.
  9. Very nice it looks sharp excellent cutting. Will look good anywhere ins house.
  10. This is beautiful, excellent cutting you should be proud to have created such a piece.
  11. I think I will stick to wood for the scroll saw. Thanks for all the replies.
  12. I have been scrolling for approx. 20 + years, started with Craftsman,Ryobi, now Excalibur. Enjoy every minutes of it.
  13. 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.
  14. 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.
  15. Now we know, the culprit confessed. Thank you FaB4 seems everybody like the pattern, great job.
  16. Somebody send me this pattern and I cannot remember who it was, I asked Travis permission to post in order for the owner of this pattern to get the proper due to him. It was easy to cut and I really appreciate the effort that was put in making this pattern. Still have to apply finish to it. Please will the owner of this pattern step forward!!!!!!!!
  17. Thank you for the nice comments, might just use a green felt backing on the Irish sign after I apply Tung oil to it.
  18. You can come here, will trade place with you. It is -30 degrees Celsius here with the windchill factor.
  19. Here a couple of trivets and an Irish Sign. Trivets pattern from Steve Good, Irish sign from Bob No finish on them yet, might stain the Irish sign GREEN
  20. The wood is Cherry and it is half inch thick, cut with 3FD PSR blades
  21. Yes I will put 2 or 3 coats of Tung oil on it.
  22. Very nice work, I also glue different pieces of scrap wood together to get the proper thickness. They really came out nice, keep having fun.
  23. Another trivet of a hummingbird, cut from cherry.
  24. I have some tiles but no jeweller's blade, I tried with FD polar # 7 did not work to good, I thought that metal blades might to the trick, if I order some more blades, will have to get a dozen or so of jeweller's blades.
  25. I used all kind of finish, for trivet I use Tung oil, for my bowls inside is mineral oil and bees wax, outside is shellac. I also use spray poly, lacquer and shellac onotherstuff that I cut.
