  1. Thanks Brenda. The gift will be for a wonderful artist.
  2. Thanks Brenda. I like the looks of the plywood.
  3. Very ell done, Bobby. Are these your patterns?
  4. I have a friend that has an art studio in Custer State park every summer. He is going through some health issues and I thought this would be a nice gift. The pattern is by Gary Browning and found in his book "Wild West Scroll Saw Portraits". I used 1/4" Baltic Birch plywood 12" square. and back with a black mat. Of course framed at ArtCrafters. I used FD New Spiral #1 blades and finished with spray Polyurethane. Comments welcome.
  5. I saw this in his email last week and thought I would make one. I enlarged the pattern by 15% to make the basket just under 6" square and 2 1/2" high. The sides are 1/4" Baltic Birch plywood and the top and bottom are Mahogany. I used FD Polar #5 blades as I stack cut 4 pieces. Finished with spray Shellac. Getting each layer lined up when gluing was the hardest part. Comments welcome.
  6. Congrats on the new saw. As others said, keep us informed.
  7. Very well done. Cutting nice and crisp.

  18. Brian, good work on those signs. What did you use to back?
  19. Charlie, those look wonderful. Great work on the inlay.
  20. I thought the same, JT
  21. Thanks Dave. Not sure about stack cutting. In some areas it is less than 1/8". As for glue up, I use a drop of glue at the points of contact. There still is a small amount of squeeze out which I clean up before it dries.
  22. Cute Kevin. You are full of these sayings.
  23. Very well done.
