  1. Not sure about cranking them out, but when having fun scrolling, why not.
  2. I was not to sure about the walnut, but it turned out nice with the grain. The red oak was a piece in the pile that fit.
  3. Thanks for the comments. I have to qualify, he is my granddaughter's son, so that makes him a great grandson. Boy do I feel OLD.
  4. While making the 'Puppy Coin Bank' there was a lot of gluing and waiting, so I made this 'Grey Wolf' pattern by Jacob Fowler. The project is found in CWWC March 2008. It is approximately 8" in diameter not including the base. I use 1/2" Walnut and 3/4" Red Oak. The blades were FD New Spiral #2/0, UR #1, and Polar #5. There is one coat of sanding sealler and two coats of spray Shellac. The upright fits the slot perfectly, so there is no need for gluing. Comments welcome.
  5. I saw this in SWWC Spring 2017 issue #66 and just had to make it. This will be a gift for our 3 year old great grandson. I will have to make another one for our soon to be born great granddaughter. The pattern is by Paul Meisel and I purchased the parts from his website. I used 3/4" Pine and FD Polar #5 blades. There is one coat of sanding sealer and two coats Shellac. Comments welcome.
  6. Actually, the rings are cut separately. They are intertwined when assembled.
  7. A truly beautiful box. I can see the hours spent on that project.
  8. Very well done. A work of art.
  9. Go for it Dick.
  10. Well done, nice clean cuts.
  11. Thanks for the comments. I am still not sure how to handle this.
  12. Pictures may explain it better than words. The rings have a slot section with small cuts to fit into the ring holder. Dan also asked for a side view. I hope these pictures help.
  13. Thanks everyone for the nice comments. The design is simple and only takes 1/2" x 6" x 12" stock.
  14. Welcome to the forum from TN.
  15. Welcome to the forum from TN. My first, well second as I returned a Hitachi after one week, was and still is a DeWalt 788. I also have an EX21. Enjoy this fun hobby.
  16. Welcome to the forum from TN.I remember Minot! Years ago in April, we stayed in a motel. It snowed and the motel doors were covered in snow. We could see the airport, but couldn't get there.
  17. Thanks for all the nice comments. What happens to a pattern when there is no known designer and the site is down?
  18. Thanks Dan. I should have thought of that. I customer picked it up this morning. I have one on display. Maybe a side view of that one.
  19. Thanks, Gordie. I purchased the pattern many years ago from Woodcraftplans.com. Nothing comes up when I type that in.
  20. Thanks DW. This is the third special order for this customer.
  21. A little correction. They first came out in CWWC May 2011. Diana Thompson's site is down. She had some health issues. I think you can also find them at scrolleronline.com. It may take some doing, but they are there.
  22. Thanks Steve and Kevin.
  23. Thanks, Paul. They are very easy to make.
  24. Gee, I am sorry Frank. As I mentioned, the designer was unknown and the website I purchased it, is not available. Maybe one of our great designers can come up with something similar.
  25. Over the years, I made over forty of these. I make these as a special request with the initials and date. The pattern designer is unknown, in fact the website is unavailable. I used 1/2" Walnut and it stands about 6 1/2" high. Comments welcome.
