  1. Ahh Tacos! Yummm.
  2. What a cute little bugger!
  3. Look'n really good.
  4. A pattern everyone loves. Really nice.
  5. I love cowboy stuff.
  6. Beautiful basket! Would it not have been easier and faster to weave a basket. I can't imagine that cutting.
  7. These will have sentimental value for a very long time. Beautiful!
  8. I just ordered 25 5" x 3/4" plastic craft test tubes with caps for $6.99, free shipping, from Amazon. I wouldn't have posted this but wondered how long this thread will go. :>)
  9. I have only owned a Ryobi before getting my Hawks. The saws are older and tension is adjusted at the rear of the saw. Once my tension is set it never varies. The upper clamp has a hard stop for the blade and blade clamping is the same every time.
  10. I did not know one side is sharper than another. Your suggestion makes sense.
  11. Welcome. Really great carvings. I can operate a saw but never a carving knife. You have a great talent. Hegner has a good reputation and being in Europe access to a German saw makes sense.
  12. WOW. A really popular subject. Thanks.
  13. WOW! You do it really nice. I like the clear tubes. What diameter are they?
  14. I'm sure this has been asked many times but here it goes again. I have about 15 different blades and need a convenient way to store them. I currently store then in 1/2" PVC tubes. It works. I presume they will narrow down to just a few favorites after experimenting a while. Just curious what other scrollers are doing.
  15. Beautiful piece.
  16. I don't have an EX but from looking at the photo on the Seyco web site the clamp looks to be made of pot metal and cast instead of machined steel.
  17. Your cutting and pattern and cutting are great. I hope you'll to be up to scrolling real soon.
  18. What a wonderful thing to do. I think your daughter will appreciate what you have done especially after she is an adult. I often reflect on things my parents did for me. They are gone but I have things that remind me of them.
  19. I love burls and yours is beautiful. Great subject you picked too.
  20. I ordered three 3" dome type mops on ebay. $11.99 for the three. They are 180 grit which is quite coarse but they are cheap enough to try. Hopefully they will work OK.
  21. I don't have an EX but I am wondering what the black, rectangular thing hovering over the table is. Is it a light? If so what kind is it?
  22. CO Springs must be a hot spot for used scroll saws. I bought my two Hawks there recently. Sorry to see you giving up scrolling.
  23. That's a great project. I like the painted. Makes it more Christmasy. Children love color.
  24. Really nice. Great pattern.
  25. Beautiful work. The time and patience required is amazing.
