  1. Welcome to the village. Good to have you here.
  2. I relate to the last picture. I have experience and have done that!
  3. Welcome from Colorado. How is the walleye fishing. I miss the boundary waters.
  4. I'd sure give it a try.
  5. I think PS Woods saw is not real popular because a lack of advertising. DeWalt, Excaliber, Hawk, Heagner are advertised a lot. They are discusse a lot here. Therefore they are more familiar. I have only seen the PS woods on the internet.It appeared to be a very sturdy machine and I thought the belt drive foolproof. But it is rarely seen on this site.
  6. Interesting. There are also several others that look interesting.
  7. I have a system made in the UK made for sharpening small number drills. I have hardly used it. It is very fiddley and time consuming. I bought it about 25 years ago. I buy new from MSC 10 at a time. Fractional at Home Depot.
  8. I was drilling holes with a Dremel plunge router using a 1/16" bit. The Dremel was running full speed whatever that speed is. The drill bit started smoking on the first hole and turned blue. Still kept drilling though. I pressed the drill down quite quickly. Is this common? The wood is 5 ply flooring under-layment. Very nice clear wood. I don't care about the bit, they are cheap. I does not hurt the pattern or piece to be cut. Just wondered. Use bee's wax on the bit, drill slower? Not a big deal though.
  9. Even though I'm nearly deaf, even with my hearing aids turned off a continuous running vacuum would drive nuts.
  10. Great cutting station. I like the three legged construction. It is always stable. Enjoy!
  11. What a beautiful piece.
  12. I likr the font and the 3D look. The burning looks great. Hooray for pallets.
  13. Looks great! You done good.
  14. Really great cutting. Something I should aspire to. The shelf paper and design set off your cutting beautifully. Thank you for the video.
  15. This worked for me: https://www.dafont.com/
  16. If you are familiar with craig's list I'm sure you will find any number of scroll saws. Delta, DeWalt, Heagner, Hawk, Excalibur saws are the ones to look at. They are the ones most used by the scrollers here. I may have missed a brand. Lots of good advise here.
  17. Congratulations on 56 years. Ours is a measly 54 years this New Years eve. I like the skeleton on the bike. Makes me glad I sold mine this June so I won't be a skeleton a bike.
  18. Those are stunning!
  19. Great cutting. I"m exhausted just thinking about cutting that.
  20. Nice cutting Kevin. You are the alpha master. In 30 years of business I had several lowlifes.That's business. However, when doing things on a more personal basis that's nasty. I hope he comes through for you.
  21. Nice cutting, nice mounting and really nice pattern. I like it.
  22. Beautiful work!
  23. Good video. I'm Hawkish about my old Hawk.
  24. Welcome back. I noticed your absence on another site.
  25. Really super job on your cutting! Your choice of patterns is nice too.
