  1. That is fantastic! Looks simply wonderful!
  2. Marge is 3/4" and a #5 Pegas Modified Geometry. Stacking at this thickness, does not work, unfortunately, as I always get blade bending and then the pieces don't fit. But I love the thickness for the puzzles. So its a Catch22, really. Thanks all for your encouraging words. It's always so rewarding to show projects here! It's a great place to be for sure!
  3. These are so much fun to make!
  4. Maybe after I graduate from Scrollsaw university...
  5. I do, Roly! Kevin, I teach, when I don't scroll ;-)
  6. http://www2.woodcraft.com/PDF/Olson-scrollblade-chart.pdf here is the chart from Olson showing which blade to use for what - maybe that will help?
  7. added a knob... I like it - the birthday boy did too!
  8. Your puzzle looks nice, good job! As far as photos goes you can got to https://www.flickr.comand there choose the option creative commons and then select the licence from which to choose then you should always be on the safe side!
  9. Thanks Marg. Both girls were celebrating their 30th birthday...
  10. Looking good there!
  11. thank your for the encouraging words. I much appreciate them!
  12. I used a #5 on the greyhound and a #3 on the cocker spaniel. the wood is 3/4". think I can go smaller?
  13. Thank you. The cocker spaniel is from her book. The greyhound is actually from the pattern gallery in our forum. But I have another question: in the German scroll saw forum I was critiqued (I am not offended, but want to get better) about problems with the cutting. In my defense I would like to say that the dogs are standing up and not laying down so that there are shadows where the pieces are not exactly flat i.e. in line with each other. I would appreciate, however, feedback from you guys, too. thanks
  14. Thanks guys! I love scrolling!
  15. Since both birthday girls are dog owners...
  16. if you have reverse teeth blades, there is a small gap before the start - which makes it easy to figure out the bottom. Magnifying glass to help finding it?
  17. Welcome from Clarksville!
  18. bought the coolest handle for the lid - can't wait to show a mounted pic
  19. it's about yeay long and yeay high. Does that help`?
  20. Hubby always told the kids when they were little that he would turn them into a wombat if they didn't listen ;-)
  21. My daughter had the glorious idea to have me saw her patterns out of a piece of plexiglas. I was a little apprehensive, but it worked out. #5 Olson reverse blade and medium speed. 0 problems.
