  1. Never saw the movie but nice cutting.
  2. Welcome to the Village Michael. Lots of friendly people to meet here. Just jump right in. Questions are always welcome.
  3. She as it solved. I saw her post on Facebook. She said it's running.
  4. Thank you. I just ordered and received that pattern It's a "got to cut" pattern! I see where the eyebrow and ear can be challenging but which of Charles Dearing's patterns are not. Don't usually cut them as they are large. I'm enlarging by 165% making the pattern approximately 9-1/2" X 11-1/4". I hate cutting large pieces as when necessary to swing the BB I interfere with it as I sit very close to the saw. Usually I limit myself to a 10X13 inch piece. I'll give it a whirl. I'm sure I lose more pieces than you did.
  5. Great job cutting one of my favorite people! What size is it?
  6. I think elegant can only describe it. Those are very beautiful. Always enjoy your work!
  7. Your patterns are so very lifelike. Great pattern design and wonderful cutting.
  8. Looks great!
  9. Looks like you are on your way!
  10. I suggest you speak with Denny at Artcrafters. He is on this forum and is a Pegas dealer. He can advise you on Pegas blades. I don't know about international shipping but He will guide you about sample pics.
  11. Very nice cutting. I love the pattern!
  12. Your patterns are absolutely dynamic!
  13. Great looking little lanterns, at least what I think of them as. I like both of them. You did a great job!
  14. Just curious. Why do you say there are no stores supporting model railroading. There may be fewer as ebay has cut into it.
  15. Actually I was never 1% but patched with Church in The Wind, a biker church. As a result I rode with my pastor, an old biker from Southern California where he was in a club. He then left the life style and became a pastor. I had the privilege of associating with many 1%ers. Hells Angels, Bandidos, Valiants, Sons of Silence, Mongols and others. We were members of the COC, Confederation of Clubs and at their monthly meetings my church provided breakfast for them. Would ride to Mule Creek Junction, WY, about 100 miles South of Sturgis where I helped distribute as many as 20,000 bottles of cold water to bikers going to Sturgis. Gave assistance to bike wreck victims, Biker breakdowns, etc. Did this after I retired and had to quit riding in 2017 when I sold my ride. Old age gets in the way! Met a lot of people some of which became friends. Through it all I knew the tough 1%ers loyalty and brotherhood is crap. I still have lunch with several of them. When they get away from their club members they are pretty much like everyone else.
  16. First of all Pad. I hope you take no offense for me calling you that. I welcome you to our Village. I hope you will make many friends here. We are eager to help you with whatever you need.
  17. That hurt me Paul! Just because all my old fart friends are retired Hells Angel's and Bandidos is no reason you can't trust me with your money. Shesss.
  18. Thing is, one can't make a bearing but, if necessary, a new bushing can be easy machined from sintered bronze by any machine shop.
  19. Let's avoid all this and buy a Hegner!
  20. Beautifully done and beautifully presented!
  21. You have that right! God Bless America!
  22. Curious, but what Hegner bearing are you speaking of? My Hegner has bronze sleeves on the rocker arms and bearings on the pitman. At least mine does.
  23. I've used 3M 45 and liked it but Amazon sells it for $16.23. 3M77 is $10.09 so I ordered two. 3M is confusing. there are several different 3M 77 sellong for over $30 per can. I have no idea what the different ones are for. I liked 3M 45 but Im using 3M 77 because it's cheaper. Both seem to work foe me.
  24. I haven't either. It was a brain f...a senior moment. Should have been 4X8. Good catch. HD does cut in half or quarters for me.
