    Great job for certain.

    Wonderful job on that for sure. Thanks for sharing your work. Seeing folks cut the things I try to design keeps me inspired to make more patterns.

    Wow. Really well done. Looks like you have the hang of adding a little color. Those pencils are quite easy to work with and as you experiment a little, shading and blending colors can really make project pop.

    John, Slightly tighten the main pivot bolt on your Dewalt which will apply slight pressure and the arm will stay up on it's own. Should need 2 7/16' wrenches. Have done that for over 25 years on my old Dewalt 788 and only needed to tweak it a couple of times over the years.

    I can't possibly say how impressed I am with this project, especially since you cut it on a fixed arm saw. You Da Man Rodney.

    Very Impressive for certain.

    Thanks Pard. I just reoiled it and also put it on a black matt backer, and it stands out better.

    Spectacular, pattern and cut.

    Well done pard. The touch of color adds a great deal to the portrait, even though it began as an accident. And the rough wood frame fits the portrait perfectly. As to fuzzies, I use FD Ultra Reverse blades for just about everything I cut, and there are almost no fuzzies. That style of blade is 2 down and 1 up in repetition throughout the entire blade length, so the up-cut teeth keep the fuzzies to a minimum. The few that are still present can easily be removed with a Mouse. I have uesd a torch at times in the past and while it is an effective way to remove fuzzies, you just have to be cautious.

    My little buddy, Rocky, long hair apple head chihuahua, follows me everywhere though never gets under my feet.

    TY very much for the pattern. You did an awesome job on it and I will certainly enjoy cutting it. Walter Brennan was an amazing character actor. As to the font, I have had that happen with fonts too, so we are in good company. I have that font loaded on my computer so not a problem.

    Now that is a project that is perfect in every way. Well done. If you are sharing that pattern, I would love to cut it.

    Slow and steady wins the race they say. But then too, since when is scrolling a race? I don't count anything these days, time spent, number of pilot holes, blades used per project, etc. I do count the number of things on the honey do list though. Need to keep that number under 100. LOL
  19. Jim Blume
    Very well done for sure.

    I often tell folks that patterns are only a guide and that once you decide to cut it and adapt or modify it to fit with your ideas, then you will open the door to your own special creativity. I absolutely love what you did with this. Amazing results.

    Well done on those for sure. If interested in doing more once those sell, the files here in the Village have many more Indian designs. If you have trouble finding them, let me know. A couple of Native girl images are quite popular at my shows.
  22. Jim Blume
    WOW. Looking great. Can't wait to see it completed. Insane sawers need insane patterns. LOL

    Remembering all who served.

    TY. That sculpture is so meaningful. I hope I did it justice in making the image scrollable.
  25. Jim Blume
    Absolutely stunning.
