  1. I started over in pine. Table square with blade. Don't be economical with blades.
  2. True. Very true.
  3. Those look great!
  4. Love Studies and you did a beautiful job. Loved the Golden Hawks. Too bad they are rarely seen at car shows.
  5. Wow, you are busy. Can't get ready for Christmas too early.
  6. Very nice cutting on nice patterns.
  7. Those hummingbirds are awesome!
  8. Good luck with your move. Here's hoping you come across some scrollers.
  9. MDF cuts nice, no fuzzies, affordable but in humble opinion the dust is so much finer than sawdust that without air filtration, a good respirator and really good dust control the fine dust permeates everything. With proper equipment I would love cutting it. Unfortunately I do not have most of those things. Wish I did.
  10. You bet Ray. My wife says the same thing.
  11. Three PM and I'm disgusted. At myself, who else. I made a rookie mistake. Probably because I am a rookie. My first mistake was MDF. It cuts beautifully but it is messy. I won't cut any longer. I do have dust collection at the bottom of the saw but not on top. The whole one end of my shop is a mess. Everything has to be individually dusted. The dust is pervasive and very unhealthy. Rookie mistake was not having my blade perpendicular to the table. I was so used to using my 16" saw I never bothered checking my new saw. As a result some parts fit from the bottom and some from the top. The last piece partially fits from the top and partially from the bottom, therefore not fitting at all. Tomorrow I'll be picking up some Poplar and start over. I may do it in Pine. That would make it thicker.
  12. Ahh, the Hawk. It is great. I love the saw. Like goin' from a Yugo to a Lamborghini. My Ryobi to a Hawk. Wonderful machines. I am now cutting the Case logo from 3/4" MDF. I had the pattern resized 195% to 16" tall. Don't know how I'll paint it but will find someone to do it for me.
  13. Shucks, I watch Swamp People on the History channel and here is the cadaver.
  14. Very nice. I like the cutting and the pattern.
  15. Such beautiful work. Don't think I would paint it.
  16. Very nice cutting. I love the subject too.
  17. For two sons- in-law and three grandsons. 1/2" Poplar. Have not decided whether to paint or 50/50 BLO. Still thinking about it.
  18. Good video. Cinematography well done.
  19. Love those Crescent wrenches.
  20. Really great cutting. I think that would look good painted.
  21. Great cutting and good re-purposing.
  22. You've done well on that.
  23. Beautiful thoughts and beautiful cutting.
