  1. Has anyone tried automotive clear coat?
  2. Terrific cutting. I like the Fender and the lever action.
  3. All very nice. I like the House Divided best. I like what it can imply.
  4. Great cutting on beautiful pieces.
  5. Those are terrific! I'm wondering what you use to drill the starting holes since the drills are very small and you are drilling metal.
  6. Nice thing for your friend. I'm sure he will love and appreciate it.
  7. I have a spoiled CAT!
  8. Yes He does! I love it.
  9. This has nothing really to do with anything but for what it is worth the Hawk is made in the good old USA. That being said I have a lot of imported tools that work well.
  10. Does anyone sand by hand? I have a small hand held Dewalt orbital sander but do not use it.
  11. Kevin, I agree with your assessment. I just scroll so I can admire some nice sawdust. The only things I give away are puzzles I give to my little friend Hope. Hope is a little adopted Chinese girl who unfortunately is missing either an X or Y chromosome. My puzzles are good for a nice hug. I know her through my Bible study. I think I have made a friend for life which probably not be that long. :>)
  12. I also bought turning tools from HF in a wood box. I only use the gouge. I should use the box. Thanks for the reminder.
  13. Haste makes waste for sure.
  14. Very nice!

  16. Thank you for the replies. Gives me an idea on what I am buying. I need to check out the hardwood ply woods. Need to see if they are hardwood on one side or two and how many plies they are. I don't scroll for sales. Most anything I cut will end up in the land fill. I simply scroll for my own amusement. About wood cupping, there is not much of a chance in Colorado. Denver is quite dry. Not like some western states but we have no rust problems either.
  17. Perhaps I should have asked which are the most undesirable for scrolling?
  18. Stopped in Lowes today picking up a board. While perusing I saw Honduras, Alder, Red Oak and Poplar. I've cut poplar but not the others. Which are good for scrolling? I also saw Maple and Oak 1/4" plywood. The stuff looked very nice. If I remember correctly the Maple was $59 for a 4X8 sheet. Pricey for sure.
  19. That would be my library.
  20. That must be kinda uncomfortable
  21. Thanks. Nice wood.
  22. Kevin, you are a master with fonts! I like the dog but my feline buddy brings sunshine in my life. My wife's not so much.
  23. That is some beautiful cutting but what is RIMU?
  24. Dave, you have made a magnificent box!
  25. That is a very cool stand.
