  1. Welcome, sounds like you got a good deal , good deal with the mag's also
  2. UPDATE.... Well I hope to order my saw this week end But between doctor, dentist, and optometrist it's going to be close. I spoke with the guy who has the excalibur. Offered 150. He said he could live with that.... good or bad it's more then I can do or care to get involved with. So it will be the Delta, I may be wrong but with all my reading I feel the extra $80 that DeWalt would cost me is better spent on wood/ glue/ patterns/ blades ECT. This is just a light duty hobby now, if the saw will handel fret work 75% as well as my old RBI (without having to fight it ) that should do.
  3. WELCOME to the village and Congratulations on the saw I hear it was a steel😉 Only way to buy !!
  4. Cream rise's to the top... Very nicely done with great detail.
  5. Always a pleasure looking at you work
  6. And think you did not even need a gun to steel that one. 🙌 Nice find, nice saw
  7. I never thought of lessons but then with me it was a hobby I just fell in love with the first time I saw my new neighbor using his, he made a living at art shows ect.I have sold a few projects along the way but never enjoyed it. Thinking back by the time I got involved I had built two houses and had almost 15 years in my own business., By then tools and small wooden parts, sanding. refinishing were old friends 😀 I guess we all had to learn somewhere and not everyone learned on there father's knee..
  8. Well I book/marked it when I get set up I will give them a try. Never tried Pegasus was mostl happy with Olson from Cherry Tree, but you can reach this old dog new tricks 😉
  9. Beautiful work, I can not tell if each piece is cut and glued or inlays which I guess adds to the appeal
  10. Welcome. Wish I had been smart enough to ask questions when I started.
  11. Thank you all ....your advice and thoughts have made me think . If I was in better condition then I would go for it but I'm not. I doubt if I could even change parts even if they were available. With my limited mobility even going to see it is a hassle, and it works to day does not mean it will work tomorrow. I am going with the Delta... I just want to do light work , using a credit card I can pay it off without much extra charge, if it does not work or I don't like it I can return ..and again by advice gotten here I most likely would not me happy with any thing cheaper. I don't expect it to run like my old RBI but hopefully it will do. This forum has a great bunch of people on it !!!
  12. Welcome, I also find sawing relaxing and I would swear it lowers my BP ☕
  13. A true case of one picture being worth a thousand words. The word elegant comes to mind. Someone should get that pattern out to the public , Very nice job.
  14. You got to be thinking WAY out side the box to come up with just the idea . Sure has the talent to put it off I!
  15. Welcome from Texas, I'm new also but can tell you we have a GREAT community here with a lot talented folks willing to help. As far as moving to Texas... I think we got room 😂
  16. I have back and leg problems which prevents me from doing a lot, sounds to me like your doing the right thing fight the frustration don't let it get u down. I guess the idea is be happy with what u can do not mad at what u can't.. my self and many others have no expectations of getting better but you don't give up. You live with it See that.... I FEEL BETTER ALREADY 🙆🙆🙆
  17. Your doing good work, and yes sellable if you like, post more
  18. One option this group gave me (.I never thought of it) was Craigslist heard of it but never went there, well I tried being computer handicapped did not help 😣 I found a 18" excalibur (he says good condition) for $ 250 it's about 30 miles from here . So what are your thoughts,
  19. Very nice, different enough to be a real eye catcher
