  1. That's why I DON'T get much done!
  2. That is a lovely pattern and you did a great job of cutting it.
  3. That's really true! It is very nice and I'm sure it will find a prominent place in their home.
  4. Love that kitty!
  5. Kinda hard to know what to say. Beautiful, excellent, splendid? Difficult to find the right word. Such a great piece!
  6. Seems you do awfully nice work very quickly. My three grown grandsons were big into hockey when young. I have a son-in-law who still coaches youth hockey.
  7. Those crosses are beautiful. I can understand why they sold so quickly. Very intricate work well done.
  8. I once knew a couple of schnooks. I avoid those people.
  9. I really enjoyed the video. It's old stuff to Ex21 owners but for someone wanting to buy a new saw the video is invaluable. I am most satisfied with my Hawk and am not in the market for another saw. BUT if I were the video would tell me a lot. There are a lot of suggestions on this forum, and I enjoy reading each one, but for a newbie the video is great. I also appreciate all the responses.
  10. We finally got it, snow that is. Balmy 24 degrees outside. I am unable to shovel and altho my wife has always liked snow shoveling, being Canadian, we just paid someone to do the shoveling. The snow looks nice and fluffy but it is remarkably heavy. Being retired is nice since I don't have to go anywhere. Nice thing is we will be in the high 50's this coming Saturday.
  11. Thank you for the great description Melanie. I have a 9" HF band saw. I just need to get appropriate blades.
  12. Gorgeous work! I have not had the nerve to turn a bowl let alone do the quality you do.
  13. Brenda, you are perpetrating something really cool. Keep it up!
  14. I found I could open it with Internet Explorer. It opened as a very small photo.
  15. Can't open your file.
  16. My dust collection is 4". Adapters down to 2" are available from Woodcraft and Rocklers and many other sources I would think.They are not expensive. I have three gates. One to my scroll saw, one to my lathe and another that I can use on the router and the small HF band saw. My DC is the cheapie from HF. Nothing fancy. Easy to install and effective.
  17. With dust collection I have very little sawdust. What sawdust I have ends up in the large collection bag which includes other materials from my lathe.
  18. That is beautiful! Nice work.
  19. Those look great Melanie! Nice choice of wood too. Was that a 1/4" blade or smaller?
  20. Someone once said, "A clean workspace is the sign of a sick mind." BUT WASN'T ME THAT SAID IT!
  21. Unfortunately it always takes longer if we wait for something.
  22. Thank you all for the kind words.
  23. Yes there are but I'm just curious. My Hawk clamps are great.
  24. I have made pens with purple heart but have never cut it on the saw. You cut five of my favorite hymns. I absolutely love it!
