  1. Nice job! I love working with oak.
  2. Sweet!
  3. I dyed some poplar orange yesterday with this stuff. Looks great and still shows the grain. Would look great on this. Amazon has it.
  4. There's an idea I will be stealing! Very cool.
  5. I was going to say great "piece of art". Two already beat me to it, so I must be right. Just beautiful.
  6. Very cute ornaments. Nice job!
  7. Glad none of you guys live around here. I let the cat out of the bag!
  8. You should! I find lots of deals on paint brushes, stain, little things for the shop.
  9. I think it's more fun since you don't always find stuff. I'll probably go back and buy more oil. Doesn't seem like I'm spending as much if I do it a little at a time. I buy all my brushes for staining there. They have really decent brushers for less than a dollar.
  10. No one in my family understands so I'll brag here. We have a local store named Ollie's that carries overstocks and close outs and occasionally they have stuff us wood people like. Went in today and got 3 shades of Watco Danish oil for $3.99 a can and 4 cans of Watco Butcher Block oil for 99 cents a can. There, now I feel better.
  11. Yep. I loved his show. Wish I could have met him. Seemed like a great guy.
  12. Sorry you don't know him. He was a great guy. About as well known as Elvis around here.
  13. Not exactly the spitting image I had hoped for but recognizable I think thanks to his "mate". I thought it only fitting that the backer be khaki.
  14. I'm slow!
  15. I can see that. Not him though. I hope to finish tomorrow. Even if he's not recognizable, which I hope isn't the case, there will be something in the picture that makes it pretty clear who he is.
  16. The actual man is much better looking than me. Also a celebrity.
  17. Anybody wanna venture a guess who this is going to be if I don't turn it into firewood. Not sure I'd know if I weren't cutting it. Hopefully I'll post the finished product in a day or two.
  18. Looking forward to it!
  19. Thanks for posting. I'll be making this form my 5 year old grandson who's already celebrating Halloween!
  20. Nice work Barbara!
  21. Great job on all of those! I love the cat. I use Folkart Ultra Dye which comes in some great colors but is water based also and raises the grain. As far as I can tell there isn't anything considered child safe that isn't water based so I guess there's no way around it.
  22. Nice original work. I especially like the leaves.
  23. Happy looking piece Kevin. Nice job.
  24. That looks great. I played him in a school play 40 something years ago.
  25. Great job on all of it Marg. Makes me smile.
