  1. Just a moose in the woods ;-)
  2. Morning at the desk, afternoon in the shop: didn't want to throw away the cutoffs from the olive wood boards - so I made little crosses. Maybe drill a hole and attach leather bands?
  3. will do! Thank you for some great advice
  4. THat is what I use - but the specific puzzle above just keeps falling apart with that blade.
  5. Very nice - do you have a pattern?
  6. I like the flower, I think the background is too busy. It overpowers the beautiful work you did!
  7. Very nice! I also cannot figure out how to make groves for fur or feathers, despite ruining many pieces of scrapwood
  8. I will try this. Thank you!
  9. Students loved them and were quite touched
  10. My colleagues loved them. I should make some for myself!
  11. I have so many remnants of hard wood. And when I cut with the #5 blade, the nativity puzzles totally fall apart because of the gaps. So I was hoping for a better fit. Alas... no go
  12. Yeah, guilty as charged - no sanding just a little brushing with the Dremel.
  13. Thanks guys. Lesson learned!
  14. I have purchased my first puzzle blades from The Wooden Teddy Bear. Tried to cut this puzzle (3/4" cherry) today, but the blade just kept drifting to the right something ferociously. I could not control it at all, even though I increased the tension and made sure they were tight in the holders. I finally stopped and started over with a #5 Modified Geometry by Pegas. Any suggestions?
  15. same magazine as the last I will give them to my German students. Each gets one!
  16. Also from Feinschnitt Magazine!
  17. Thanks guys!
  18. Thanks guys...
  19. This took way longer that I anticipated.
  20. Thanks everybody. Glad you like them. Rockytime, they are actually not leftover stock, but part of the ensemble.
  21. Basswood, stacked cutting. And a little moose from the newest edition of Feinschnitt Magazine
  22. Thanks guys!
  23. Thanks guys. Daugther was at a fair today in Nashville - barely made her fees back. Tight-fisted bunch of people - i guess.
