  1. Nicely done, does look much larger in the pic. Jeff
  2. Looks great. Jeff
  3. Nothing fancy, just a 13' X 15' room. I do all the major sawing and planeing in the garage. Picture one is from the door showing the sanding and drilling area. Second one shows cutting and layout area. Third picture shows wood burning and clutter area Jeff
  4. Much the same as most of the people here. Dad was a registered carpenter so always was around wood and enjoyed working with it. Jan moved in summer of '98 and that Christmas wanted to build something for her nieces. My nephew's uncle had given him a maypole animal carousel as a present, so decided I would make three of them (two for the new nieces and one for me). Had an old 15" Delta single speed scrollsaw in the shop (not sure where or why I bought it) and used it to cut the animals out. At the same time, was in one of our local drugstores and saw a wolf (real weakness for wolf patterns) on the cover of a CWW&C magazine and thought I should try that. That was the beginning and am still loving it. It is my escape and gives me pleasure when projects are done. Like many others, do a yearly Xmas ornament and people have asked for the years they have missed for one reason or another, makes one feel good. We (or I should say Jan) gives more away than we ever sell, but not in it for the money. I just keep cutting and the "inventory" just keeps cluttering up the house. Getting the first Excalibur really changed things, was cutting crazy projects with the old Delta, but the EX made it MUCH more enjoyable and easy. Jeff

  7. Another amazing cut Randy, thanks for the pic. I can see the eyes just fine. Jeff
  8. Neat idea, well done. Jeff
  9. It was a nice cut. Typical Alex Fox pattern, clean and easy. Only tricky spot was the water tower. Jeff
  10. Here you go Paul, Jan finally took a break from quilting and painted the burrowing owls. She also did a few of the other recent projects. Enjoy. Jeff
  11. Showed Dad a pic of this pattern and he rattled off what year the truck was and how the scene reminded him of growing up. It is his birthday on the 20th of this month, so decided to cut it for him. Alex Fox pattern, stack cut three 1/8th BB ply, 11 X 14 using mainly #3 Sawbird ultra reverse blades. Jeff
  12. Super combination, works for me. Great job. Jeff
  13. Great assortment there and the painting really brings them to life. I agree, compound cuts are fun to do. Jeff
  14. Great job on all three, but really like the first one. I think they will fetch a higher dollar than you think Dick. Jeff
  15. Awesome job on the pieces and the board. Jeff
  16. Great job on both Katie. Have cut a few baskets over the years and they are fun to cut and always a big hit. Jeff
