Hi Larry. It's a Charles Dearing pattern. I did get it legitimately but I don't think it's available anymore.

Very well done! What did you use rounding all those edges? Kids will love it.

Thanks. I used a FDUR #1 blade on everything except the outsides of Gandalf and the stick where I used a FDUR #3. As for the drill size I'm not sure what # it is. I got some small bits from Harbor Freight that aren't numbered. I just know a #1 blade would barely fit through it. I went through over 2 dozen blades on this one. I ruined more by repeatedly bending them while threading them through the holes than breaking them. Thanks again.

Yeah, I'm planning to. I've got Fellowship of the Ring laid out to start on after I finish a couple of others. I read the Hobbit and really liked it. I think he and C S Lewis were friends and I've loved everything I've read by Lewis.

I'm a big fan of the Lord of the Rings movies. So far I've been too lazy to read the books. Love this pattern by Charles Dearing. I cut it in 1/2" Red Oak . It's 8" X 10". The backing is rough cut cedar which I stained English Chestnut then fogged it with flat black from a rattle can to darken it a bit. I planed one side to get it to 1/8" thickness and cut 1 1/2" planks and glued them to 1/4" BB rough side up.

Cool puzzle. I use FDUR blades and don't like the 2/0s either.

Great job. Nice patterns cutting and frames.

First project! The would be like learning Classical Gas at your first guitar lesson. Great job, and welcome!
-
Great job! I like the live edge too. I'd be having John Wayne nightmares.
-
No reason to hate.

I'd say your super powers are patience and persistence. Breath taking accomplishments! Congrats!

Those all look great. Love the rustic look.

That is such a cool piece Dave! Great idea and beautifully done.

That's a great looking piece. I know he'll like that.

Those look sharp! Cowboy/girl up!!!

Thanks. I'm usually one who would say forget the warranty, but with the warranty being 7 years and considering the cost of the saw I'm not planning on doing it any time soon.
-
Very nice job! So real my nose itches. It is fun cutting a quality pattern!
-
Great looking boxes Melanie!

Nice job! Those are cool.

Very cute. Bitter half, Sweatheart, whatever.

Amazing work!
-
Beautiful job cutting those. I hate working with MDF!
-
Had not heard of that. Yeah I'd have to know what that did to the warranty but, tempting.

I've had my new Hegner a couple of months now and this is where I have it set up, mostly because that's where my Dewalt was. I plan to build a tilted base to put under it but keep it where it is. I had to add the post on the front of my bench under the saw to stop vibration. I really like the Hegner. The only thing at all I wish was different is how much the arm raises. I'm a bottom feeder so I don't mind that you can't top feed but I'm working on an intricate fretwork piece and it definitely slows me down having to hit lots of tiny holes with limited space underneath. I removed the rubber grommet to gain the extra fraction. Still I would buy one again. It purrs like a kitten and is obviously well built, but then it should for the money shouldn't it. I'm thankful I had the nice trumpet to sell to pay for most of it.
