  1. This is the second one I made. I had a piece of 1/2" Yellowheart just perfect for this project. The pattern is by Jacb Fowler and found in CWWC April 2007. I used FD UR #1 blades and ons coat of 50% BLO as the finish. There are 75 holes, so a lot of cutting. Comments welcome.
  2. This pattern caught my eye and just had to be made. The pattern is by Chuck Petrovich and found in SWWC Summer 2012 issue #47. I was not sure of the Red Oak, but when I applied the Samen stain to the base, it really stands out. I used Fd Polar #5 blade. I really enjoyed making this project. Comments welcome.
  3. I finished the final four patterns of these Standing Miniature Birdhouses. I used Aromatic Red Cedar for the birdhouses and Yellowheart for the birds. I used FD Polar #5 & #7 blades and one coat of spray Shellac for the finish. Thanks to Diana Thompson for the wonderful patterns. Comments welcome.
  4. That is some fine cutting.
  5. Wow, you have been busy. They all look great.
  6. Len, I consider the blades as disposable at less than 25 cents. I don't like pushing, so changing blades. I also use some hardwoods and it does make a difference.
  7. Very nice cutting on both. I am sure well appreciated.
  8. Kevin, I use FD Polar #7 almost exclusively on the birdhouses and #5 on the birds. Also one blade per birdhouse.
  9. Welcome to the forum from TN. A great looking plaque. Well done on the donation.
  10. Nicely cut and finished.
  11. Well done, Steve. Very nice cutting of a wonderful pattern.
  12. A very well done project. Great work on the design, Russell.
  13. Thanks Roly. Maybe four more this weekend.
  14. Those really look great. I love the addition of the pink color.
  15. Very nice word art. Personally, I would use a backer.
  16. Very nice, Dick. The cutting is extremely sharp. Who is the pattern designer?
  17. Thanks Dan. The standing one was bought for her mother in a nursing home. No place to hang one.
  18. Hi Rolf. Welcome to the forum. Like many of us, I look at both forums every day.
  19. The colors on that one came out just right.
  20. Yes, those look great.
  21. Thanks for all the comments. Looks like I will have to make the last four of the set.
  22. Thanks Rob, they are a fun cut.
  23. Very nice cutting of a good pattern.
  24. Thanks, Jim, yes I found them on Diana's website. $5.95 for the set of eight patterns. As a follow up, one sold today at ArtCrafters and I gave one to my wife, Dianne. Now only two left on the display.
  25. Sure do like it, Larry. The colors adds a great touch.
