Welcome to the forum from TN. As mentioned, we like pictures.
-
Very well done, Dave. A work of art.
-
Thanks for all the nice comments.
-
You got a great saw, Iggy.
-
Very well done.

Hey Don, you need to stop at ArtCrafters. My wife is into card making and she has card stock on most any color.
-
Lots of good ideas. Thanks.

I buy the Shellac and alcohol in cans by the quart and mix 50%.
-
That is my go to process. I call it a sanding sealer using Shellac diluted 50% with denatured alcohol. On puzzle pieces, after a dip and dry, buff with a Mac Mop and a second dip and dry.

Thanks Rob. Thimbles would work great. The selves are between 1 3/4" to 2 1/4" high.
-
I keep the good pattern side to the left of the blade and cut pushing the wood counter clockwise. I guess this makes the blade go clockwise.
-
I used the 50% BLO and Mineral Spirits for dipping. I now use 50% Shellac and Denatured Alcohol.
-
I bought my Mac Mop from Klingspor. 240 grit and it was complete with the spindle for about $40.
-
Thanks for the comments. Any ideas what might be displayed on the shelf?

I finished this project this weekend. The pattern is by Sue Mey and found in CWWC August 2013. I wanted to make this project for some time, but didn't have the right wood. I used 1 1/4" Maple discarded by the local La-Z-Boy chair manufacturer. The trim is 1/8" Walnut and the backing is Red Oak plywood. I used FD Polar #9 blades and finished with spray Shellac. Ideal for displaying small items. Any ideas? Comments welcome.

Welcome to the forum from Tennessee. The owl is a beautiful work of art.
-
Welcome to the forum. As said, show some of your work.
-
Thanks for all the nice comments. I am not sure if I will use this process again.
-
Welcome to the forum. Sorry, I have no experience with that saw.
-
Thanks Don. The shape is unusual.
-
Thanks DW. The Western Red Cedar does look pretty.
-
Thanks Randy. I made several of Carole Rothman's bowls, but this is a different process.
-
I finished the 'Wonder Bowl' found in SWWC Fall 2017 issue #68. The pattern is by Dave Van Ess. There are several bowl making changes, most dramatic is no drilling. I used 5/8" Western Red Cedar and FD Polar #3 blades. The finish is spray Shellac. Comments welcome.

Thanks Alex. I also captured the pattern.

It was a great time several years ago at the SWWC Event meeting you, Carole, Judy and others on the forum. Too bad there isn't another, but I understand the time and cost involved.
