  1. I have been using tape/spray adhesive and found it to be much better than gluing pattern to wood. NOW I have started using "full sheet clear label" , I use my Epson printer and am able to resize and print multiple small patterns on one sheet. Try it you might like it.
  2. "Turning over a new leaf!"
  3. Some time my tremor causes unwanted "ripples" in the cut. Have been trying different ways to hand sand. Now I have taken broken sanding belt and cut into narrow strips. Then cut to length install set tension and sand away, no tremors ;-). See the video demo. IMG_0215.mov
  4. On my Mac I drag to desktop, then click and it opens in preview. Then print gives a screen to let me set the % for size. Hope this is clear as M U D.
  5. Rockytime, Thanks for this idea. I'm going to get mine made this afternoon.
  6. Just got my new King 16 set up. Have been putting up with Delta 12, changing blade was taking most of the pleasure away. Seem like King is going much slower speed, but cutting better. Shown is my first project, for great, granddaughter 1 1/4 " poplar. Used Olson spiral #4, I'm thinking another choice would have been better. ??? Looks rough to me. Hoping some of you delightful (already been reading for a few days) people will pass on some good advice. I do have a slight problem from time to time with tremors, but if I take a short break and try to keep my hands resting on the work piece or table thing go better.
