  1. Congratulations! Adoption is awesome!
  2. Do these look like the ones you have.
  3. I fortunately have an outdoor closet behind the shop. I ran 1 1/2” PVC from the saw through the wall into the closet to a 4 Gallon 5.5 hp Shop Vac.The light switch below the saw turns it on. I can’t really hear the shop vac but the suction noise at the saw is loud enough I’ll be in the market for some blue tooth headphones. Anybody have any you recommend?
  4. Nice job!
  5. Thank you. Yes. Thanks to a great tutorial by @Travis.
  6. Since I'm charging for this one I suppose a that makes me a pro.
  7. So nice to have a hobby that allows you to create things fairly easily that you once would have thought near impossible. Request from a friend to give as a Christmas gift. Happy Halloween everybody!
  8. Really nice!
  9. Those look great Melanie! Can't pick a favorite because I like them all. I'd love to have some of those on the tree.
  10. I may have to fix that. I really like Reba and don’t have near enough women on the walls. Her song, “Greatest Man I Never Knew” is one of my favorites.
  11. I have highs and lows in my scrolling addiction. Hoss got me hooked on portraits. Glad you shared him. Sometimes I look at all of them and wonder why, but I think, I enjoy it, is reason enough. I think most everyone enjoys creating something.
  12. I don’t dislike frames, I just like cutting thicker wood and I like the finished project to look like what it is. A picture cut in a chunk of wood.
  13. Nice job!
  14. Great job. Sorry for your loss. Our neighbors have a Great Dane named Luna. They say it's short for Lunatic.
  15. Excellent job on a great idea!
  16. Cool idea! Nice job!
  17. Beautiful job!
  18. Some, but it’s filling up.
  19. If I remember correctly the first one was Hoss from Bonanza, pattern by @Dan, about 4 years ago.
  20. Exactly what'll probably happen to mine. I hope they at least look on the back first because I've put their names of a few of them if it's a singer or actor they like. I'm planning to be cremated so maybe they can just throw them in with me and save time.
  21. I hung the 100th portrait in my shop today. There are a few I didn't count since they aren't really portraits, like Groot, The Weeping Angel and a couple of signs. If I counted correctly there are 146 individual faces in the 100 portraits. So glad I somehow stumbled into this hobby. So many hours of fun, frustration , and therapy.
  22. Couple of my favorite lyrics of his.-The yellow haired lady was buried at sunset, the stranger went free of course. For you can't hang a man for killing a woman who's trying to steal your horse. And-I heard you told him that you'd love him till the end of time. That's the same thing that you told me, seems like only yesterday. Ain't it funny how time slips away.
  23. Tribute to my all time favorite musician and his faithful guitar, Trigger. Willie may surprise us all and hang around a lot longer, but I made this as a kind of farewell piece. "Funny How Time Slips Away" was first recorded in 1961 so Willie wrote it sometime before that. If you're familiar with his signature red, white, and blue guitar strap there's a glimpse of it between his braid and fingers. I worked my initials, CKE into his braid also. Let me know if you'd like a copy of the pattern.
  24. Nice job! I love Celtic designs. Great colors.
