I had posted some work in progress pictures a while ago. Now that Mother's Day is past and the gifts have been given, I can post the final. Each heart represents a city where a child lives. They are framed in shadow boxes from Michael's so there is a little glare off the glass. This was a collaborative effort with my wife, who owns almost as much scrapbooking stuff as I own woodworking stuff.

I finally got the most recent copy of SSWC, and I'm a little confused by their review of the Jet. Since they have repeated their comments on their website forum, I will go ahead and say that the issue they had was that it could not accommodate thicker stock. I got a Jet earlier this year (courtesy of a VERY generous mother-in-law), and I have not run into the issues that they had - once I got the top arm adjusted parallel to the table, I could fit a full two inches under the blade without problems. Just barely, but it did fit.
