  1. Thanks - I will remember that!
  2. Thanks guys - I ordered both the tape and the finger cots - will see what works best.
  3. It's my go-to blade!
  4. What do you guy use do protect your hands/fingers when sanding intarsia pieces? I have yet to find the right thing. At minimum, I scrape a knuckle and break fingernails every time Suggestions?
  5. I dont know any turners and my daughter is flying back to Germany tomorrow, taking it with her. So we will figure something out, today. Thank you for the idea, though.
  6. purple heart. So tell me why with this hard hard wood, the angel broke off, while I was still cutting that curve at the bottom right, just from the vibration. I glued it back on, and hope it will keep now. Still need to find knobs - that match.
  7. Carol Rothmann, the bowl-lady, recommends the Flying Dutchman #5 POLAR for bowl cutting.
  8. thanks - I am not selling them. But a guy in Germany is selling them for 7 Euro per letter - so your Elijah would be 42 Euro or 50 bucks - that's without the train ;-)
  9. Knobs not attached yet.
  10. That is a wonderful idea! Especially, if you are getting him more income that way! Good for you! I shared in the German forum. Hope that is ok!
  11. Fantastic.
  12. Looks lovely. Use it for mints! Will look fantastic!
  13. Did you ask if she doesn't like chains? I am sure there is a variety of chains out there. Copper wire?
  14. They were boards that came in that thickness - bought at the hardwood store. I like the thickness, but one could do thinner, if one preferred.
  15. Thanks all - it was a fun project, a fast project and because of the sizing it made an high-impact gift. The recipients loved it.
  16. 3/4" cherry only mineral oil, because if will be used with food items - you can also use butcher block oil
  17. 4 little ones, or 1 big one, or two oblong ones use a trivet - or hold one and hang your glass of wine into it, while you pile you food on top 16 x 16"
  18. Hope you are using a mask scrolling MDF, cause that stuff is nothing but bad for your lungs!
  19. I just got the ultra reverse, after using Pegas Modified #5 forever. I will go back to the Pegas - much better with hard and thick wood.
  20. fantastic idea and execution!
  21. Thanks guys. Len, I think it needs a black backer. Still working on it.
  22. I call it painting by the numbers using wood. I use a drum and belt sander after cutting!
  23. For the lupine lover in our family
  24. Thanks!
  25. Great idea, Spirithorse!
