Thanks Dick for asking the question and thanks everyone else who has chimed in to give different options.

Welcome. Sounds like you are getting ready now that you got a motor. Who would have known! My husband had a friend give him their father/father-in-law's shopsmith when he passed away. It didn't come with a Hawk Scroll Saw attachment though.

Hard to imagine how you cut such great work on a tiny coin. Looks great. Thanks for sharing.

Great job on your first piece. I had some trouble on my first couple of posts around here too. Had issues with my photos showing I think. Looks like you have it figured out now. Good to "see" you as well. Your piece will look good with your Dad's and then one day you will look at them and see how far you have come and how much you have enjoyed sharing this hobby with your dad. Keep up the good work and the sharing!

Lots of projects underway. Glad the massage therapy your friend brought helped you out. Take your time and do the work well. Always good to get deposits on the work before you start it. Hope you take the time to see the Doctor as everyone here has urged you too.

Cool - I will look for the signs as we come down next time - should be in the Fall when my Vols come down to play the Dawgs. and I agree with Falcon - anything and everything someone is cutting is worth posting here. That's how we all learn from each other. It really helps me to "see" what others are cutting and how they are sanding and shaping it. Hopefully you and bronx can meet up soon for you to get the saw from him.

Hey Theresa - a dw788 is a Dewalt 788 scroll saw. That is the saw that I presently have. Have had it a number of years - got it when my kids were small - didn't have the time or patience back then. Especially when I couldn't figure out WHY I couldn't seem to cut a straight line with it. Grown kids, more patience, and learning why it didn't cut straight and how to cut straight - here I am now learning to use it.

See, good things can come to those who wait. Glad she showed and helped you out.

Hi frank. Welcome back from a newbie who joined while you wee away. I see you were missed. I just wanted to say I really like all your projects. I especially like the little people to hold up a phone or iPad. I have recently seen some of those elsewhere and thought they are really cute and want to try and find some patterns or come up with some to make my kids some for Christmas maybe. Thanks for Shang all your photos of your work. I enjoy seeing what others are doing.

Beautiful bird, shown by wonderful cutting. Thanks for sharing.

I agre, excellent work and another take on the idea. I love them both. Thanks for sharing and caring.

You did a great job on the horse. Looks very realistic. Thanks for taking time to share your photo here. I enjoy seeing other people's work and "interpretation."

Very nice looking Ferris wheel. I am sure your daughter will love having it in her shop. Thanks for sharing it.

Ditto what everyone else has said. They all look very nice. Definitely looks like lots of work in Sachs piece. Hope you have a great show and sell a lot. Enjoy the music too.

Looks like you are well on your way to becoming a great Intarsia artist. Looks like the apple didn't fall far from the tree. The horse looks really good and I am sure your daughter will love it. I look forward to seeing more of your work. Thanks for sharing your photo. I like seeing others intarsia work to see how they approach it. Everyone has different ideas which is great to see.

Just wanted to ditto what everyone else said Kevin, see a Dr. - have them check your meds and see if there is some thing causing your sleeping a lot, etc. only you can decide that you can take care of you. We will be here to cheer you on, but you have to take the steps needed to help you get to better, happier health. That starts with seeing a dr who can help you figure out the best path for you. Good luck, prayers being said for you.

Creating A Pattern From A Photo Using Photoshop or Elements
meflick replied to CharleyL's topic in General Scroll Sawing
Hi Charley, any friend of NCScroller, Scott, is a friend of mine. (Scott, Fibber, and myself and several others took an Intarsia class together back in May.) thanks for sharing how you create portrait patterns. I know several will find that information useful. Your newest job sounds very nice and glad it is totally fun for you. The carousel sounds like it will be great fun as well. Enjoy the season.
