I am having difficulty finding certain woods in the dimensions I use. Suppliers I’ve bought from online don’t have the width selection I have used occasionally. Right now I am searching for 1/4 inch white oak with 8 or 10 inch width. Do any of my fellow woodworkers know of a supplier for me? Thanks

Our daughter was here with family last Thanksgiving. She admired the Jewel Box I had made a few years earlier. Guess I’ll make her one.

Thanks. I have my wood spacers, top & bottom boards cut. Waiting on my next order to arrive.

Thin Wood Humidor?

I live in a typically dry, arid climate in the US. The woods I order will start warping in a couple of days after I receive them. Has anyone made a device to store wood to prevent warping?

I started late Spring of ‘21 and just finished. I take breaks for periods of time for other interests. When I do cutting it may be for 1 to 3 hours each time. The detail work takes so much focus and slow speed cutting I get eye strain sometimes. -

Replying to Merlin’s question: The rear wheel diameter is 8 3/4 inches. Actually, I reduced the patterns to 70% of original due to thin wood sizes available. It made detail cuts a little harder though. The overall coach dimensions are 25”L X 25” H X 10.5” W. -
A lot of detail work, assembly and finish but finally completed the largest project I have ever done. Walnut and maple of various thickness, 1/8" to 3/8". The curved end panels ended up being a 1/32" wood used for craft projects. It's the only thickness that would make the bend of about 30 degrees. Had to stack cut with 1/8" ply and a #2 blade at low speed. IMG_.HEICIMG_1085.HEIC

Hi folks. I,be run across a lack of supply for some thin dimensional woods. In the 12" wide and also some 10" wide species. I.ve planned out a project that I will need 1/8" x 12" x 24" walnut and maple. I contacted Ocooch and it will be a couple of months at the earliest they will have stock. Anybody have thoughts obout availability problems? Finished the last winter project: IMG_0460.HEIC IMG_0460.HEIC IMG_0459.HEIC

I always have warping problems with nearly all woods. My area climate can be low humidity and wood warps days after receipt. Is there a source of kiln dried thin woods? I,ve used methods to straighten but it's a hassle that may or may not work.

I,m needing thin stock plexiglass sheets, 1/8" or less. Colored and textured. Anyone know who might supply this? Thanks

I still have no luck trying to contact Pedro at finescrollsaw.com. The site is still up. I’m hoping all is well with him. -
Just wondering. Has anyone tried using the finescrollsaw site lately. I can't seem to get any response from Pedro there.

That is some really nice work! Adding mini led to some projects make a great display.
