    Amos

    meflick replied to Charlie E's topic in Bragging Rights

    Ditto to what everyone else said. What a cute guy Amos is. He smiles with his whole face including those eyes for sure. I can only imagine how happy the family is with it. I hope you cut several because you need at least one for his mom, your wife and probably the other grandmother as well.

    Nice work for playtime Kevin. You need to make a sign to remind you to take photos before taking stuff out of the shop for delivery.

    I think the main key is to add lots and lots of the flocking and when you think you have enough, add some more. then make sure you let it set for the full period they say before removing the excess. Remember, you can collect the excess that does not stick and reuse it again so it does not hurt anything to use a LOT when flocking. Ithe. Use a paint brush as suggested to help smooth it out and get out excess. Interestingly enough, unlike Jim, the one time I didn’t have very good results and thought it was streaky and not very thick and looked bad was the time I used craft acrylic paint rather than the color adhesive you can get with the flocking. Was never really sure either why that was the case. I wondered if it was the paint, too thick of paint, not thick enough, Inconsistent on thickness, color I was using. It was the orange. What color were you using?

    Scott. I was thinking and my thought was maybe just putting an “order” in that really was not an order, but was a donation to Harvey. Was going to check out your site to see if there was a way to do it. Maybe as a special order somehow? If we did it that way, it might work.

    I do have one and have used it. However, my husband is a general woodworker and he has a drill press and I tend to prefer to use it. You are right though, it should work for a lot of work. However, it can be difficult to get into the middle area of a larger piece and the plunger router attachment would probably lay be better as Fred noted.

    I thought those were so cute when I saw them in the magazine. I have the pattern copied. Will get to them hopefully before Halloween. I have been out of the shop for a bit, we were out of town last week, getting ready for that trip week before thst, and catching up on appointments and such this week. Maybe next week. Last I was in the shop, I left several projects in progress I know so will need to get those finished up first.

    A work of art that should be treasured and an extra special treasure for your daughter. Always good to have such treasures from a special family member.

    What an awesome pattern and great work by you on cutting and crafting the frame for it. Your son and his friend will love it.

    Glad you had a good weekend Scott. I had been wondering how you were doing with your summer sales since we hadn't seen you here in a while.

    I would suggest listening to your wife. much easier and cheaper to get a. new girlfriend then to go through a divorce with the wife. (Especially if the wife finds out about the girlfriend. )

    Nice work Lawson. Glad you are healing and getting time back in the shop.

    Nice work. As far as color for the flocking, I think it really depends on several factors. For me, I decide based on the coloring of the overall project so in this case, I think the red ties in with the overall look of the wood.

    Welcome back. Nice work. Thanks for showing.

    I wouldn’t call one day a successor failure for them at that price.
  21. meflick
    Yes, it can be edited and info. added later as best I recall. I am pretty sure I have done so.
  22. meflick
    Glad it works well for you and is relatively quiet. As to what else you “need”, don’t worry somebody will post something new we all need and can’t live without sooner then later.
  23. meflick
    Beautiful piece of art you have crafted to welcome your new neighbors. They will love it. Thanks for showing.
  24. meflick
    Will check it out when I get some extra time to really look. Glad you got it working.
