That's excellent because every one needs fiber and sawdust is fiber and better than chewing on a broom!

Just a little this and that. Yesterday my wife started rearranging things in my shop. The things I cut are just in a pile. I really have no use for most of the stuff. She says I'm wasting space and need to be more efficient. Anyway my wife being a nest freak started moving things. Somethings went to the trash, somethings for white elephant gifts and some things for those I don't really appreciate. That'll show 'em. Another thing, she swept my shop complaining the little pieces of wood hurt when she walks around my shop barefoot. Wear shoes and you don't need to sweep. But what do I know? I have a small pancake compressor I purchased long ago from HF. I paid $30 for it. It had been returned but they would allow me to return it if not satisfied. Noisy little sucker. When needing to use my nail gun or stapler I would wheel my much larger compressor into the shop. It's a pain just to put drive just a few small nails. I dug out the little pancake compressor to see if it would drive the nail gun. Surprisingly It did. I can't lift much and I don't like dragging things. I spent a little time making a base with kind of wheels. I got these things from HF. I go there a lot as they are only minutes from my home. They are like big ball bearings and only $1.99 each. The screws I used on them were just a trifle long and I did not want to go to ACE for just 8 screws. I cut off the extended screws with a Dremel tool. It ain't purdy and makes noise when rolling along the floor. I guess the plywood sort of amplifies the sound. When I use the little bugger I take out my hearing aids and put on ear protection. I do the same when using my little router. Both are noisy little suckers. Hope I haven't bored anyone too badly.

Thanks all for the suggestions. I'll do some shopping and in the meantime I'll use the elbow method.

Your boxes are always uniquely wonderful.

Super looking puzzle!

Thanks. I'll have to do some shopping.

After receiving lots of input on this site I made a terrible mistake and purchased a cheap palm sander from HF. That was a couple of months or so ago. I tried it for the first time today. That sucker is wild. I tried it on a project today and all it did was break a couple of parts on the project. It is cheap and totally useless. I need to find a more gentle sander.

A specific place to paint is awesome. I have a paint booth. It is a garbage can.

Great looking clock. Did you scroll the circle or use a circle cutting jig? It looks perfect.

That is excellent! I like it.

I love the old song. I especially like the choice of wood. The grain almost looks like an open sea.

Great design and great cutting and display! My daughter is a middle school secretary. The stories she tells are frightening.

I would like the pattern.

Great design and well executed. Good job!

Great cutting on a cool pattern!

That looks pretty cool! I can't do that with an aluminum table.

You are doing a beautiful job cutting those earrings! I don't think I can cut things that small.

Your patterns are inspiring as welll as beautiful!

That is so beautiful especially the message!

Those are definitely cool cuttings!

That is a great pattern and you surely did it justice with your cutting! Love the buffalo.

Very, very nice. I never heard of the book but I look at patterns in books or on line and am not impressed. Then someone posts in the bragging section and I immediately think, "Wow, I want to cut that." I do not have an artist's intuitiveness.

Those are beautiful! Great patterns and cutting.

WOW, that looks huge. Very interesing.

Nice pattern and cutting too!
