  1. Welcome to the forum from TN. Lots of friendly folks here.
  2. As said many times, buy the best within your budget. I have a DeWalt I used and still use for 10 years. My go to saw is an EX21.
  3. Very well done. It looks like rather than a puzzle, you kept it one piece with veining.
  4. Both pattern and cutting are right one.
  5. A truly beautiful work of art, Jerry.
  6. Very well done. Is it your pattern?
  7. Those puzzles are great.
  8. Sure like the colors on the cheese cutting boards.
  9. Well done on both pattern and cutting.
  10. Sounds like you are trying to follow the pattern exactly. With puzzle patterns, you don't need to be on the line like in other work. If the blade starts to stray, just continue ntil you are back on the line. The puzzle will work and no one will notice.
  11. Never thought about it. I use contact paper and the pattern goes on to fit the wood. No problems with the contact paper.
  12. Well done on the assembly. Replace some fluids and start cutting.
  13. Those like great on the railing.
  14. Welcome to the forum from TN. As mentioned, we like pictures.
  15. Very well done, Dave. A work of art.
  16. Thanks for all the nice comments.
  17. You got a great saw, Iggy.
  18. Very well done.
  19. Hey Don, you need to stop at ArtCrafters. My wife is into card making and she has card stock on most any color.
  20. Lots of good ideas. Thanks.
  21. I buy the Shellac and alcohol in cans by the quart and mix 50%.
  22. 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.
  23. Thanks Rob. Thimbles would work great. The selves are between 1 3/4" to 2 1/4" high.
  24. 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.
  25. I used the 50% BLO and Mineral Spirits for dipping. I now use 50% Shellac and Denatured Alcohol.
