    That's right Les. It's with all the tile.

    You used to be able to buy it by the piece at Lowes but now they only sell it by the case which is 10 or 12 pieces I think so it's not that bad. I went there to buy some a couple of weeks ago and ran into a friend who told me he had lots of it left over from his kitchen stacked outside his garage. So I've got a great supplier but it may be a long drive for you.

    Some of you are probably already familiar with this lady's work but I just stumbled onto it. Beautiful stuff. I'm curious if she cut this on an angle, on one side it looks like you're looking at it from the left, vise versa on the other. Here's a link to her page. https://www.kimberleyfrancis.com/samples.html

    Cut this great pattern by @baggetta today. Sadly I think I used the last useable piece of spalted oak I have on this one. Used slate as a base again. I'm using epoxy to mount it.

    By far the cutest giraffe I've seen. Great job. I went to my shop for the same reason. Most of the time things are brighter when I leave.

    Good deal!

    Yes it is. It came off the same board as the Live In The Moment piece from yesterday. The pattern for this one is in the pattern library.

    Thanks to @joscrolls for a simple but beautiful pattern. Aptly mounted on slate. Just noticed the tennis racket in the corner. It's for swatting Carpenter Bee's, not tennis balls.

    Great job!

    Great looking pieces. Love the Buffalo.

    Nice job. Got the theme song playing in my head right now.

    I agree with everybody. Not a one day job for me. Beautiful!

    Pretty sure it's White Oak, with some spalting on the top edge.

    Now if I can just do it.
  15. Charlie E
    Yes, it' slate tile. I have a wet saw for tile.

    Simple project that should have been fairly quick took me most of the day. After cutting sanding and finishing the wood part I dropped it and it broke pretty much in half. I was able to prune a couple of limbs and glue it back together. Tried four different backers. Wound up with a slate backer and base. Glad I'm not trying to make a living at this!

    Great job! Last one is my favorite.
  18. Charlie E
    Thanks! I'll give that a try!

    Great job! And yes she has!

    Very cool! High quality work there. How do you glue the picture to the plywood. Any secret to not having white lines on the cuts. I haven't tried puzzles, this makes me want to. My grandson loves them.

    Beautiful!

    Well thank you very much. I appreciate the kind words. God bless you as well.

    Thank you. Didn't mean to fish for a compliment. I just really can't draw a good stick man, or write neatly for that matter. Very envious of people who can draw well. Don't think that's something that can be taught when you've got nothing to build on.

    Obviously inspired by Fiona Kingdon's art I thought this piece of spalted oak with worm holes had a story to tell. While cutting the scene and listening to my Daughter's Echo Dot the old hymn He Leadeth Me Came on. I think this line from the song fits the piece very well. I don't have any artistic ability so I used 3 pieces of clip art to get an outline of the ship, lighthouse, and birds. It is about 6" X 11".

    Absolutely! I need to fix a couple of islands I left in it and I will send it your way tomorrow. Glad you like it.
