    Good Job Kevin. i am fully aware of that problem. I used to make toys and purchased my paint in 4 litre tins, then decant it into 1;litre or 500ml jars. After not doing anything for a number of years, I had to chuck litres of the stuff out,it stank. I did save some, but it was a waste.

    Absolutely beautiful. Are the hearts photo frames?

    Now, If you were in Western Australia, I'd snap it up at $500. Before you purchase you Pegas from Bear Woods try @Denny Knappen he is a Pegas distributor. I've got one more move ahead of me and hopefully that will my last. Just looking in my shed makes me shudder.

    A bit late to the party, I loved Klingspoor. I purchased 200 of the 360, 220 and 180 and 120 quite a few years ago. Have run out iof a few now and have been getting Diablo from the local hardware. If our Dollar improves a bit, I'll be placing another order with klingsore. I also use their paper for my Drum sander and their rolls for the oscillating drum sander.

    Don't trash the dog, package him up and take him to your shows. I bet there is somebody out there who has this bread with the name. You could even give it to a nipper at your stall.

    Very nice cutting. I don't usually go much for the burnt look, but the border really suits this.

    Wishing you a speedy recovery Ralph and a happy and uneventful move.

    I have an air brush, actually a couple of cheapies. I used them for painting my toys, Stripes on Tigers and Zebras etc, with my big compressor. No worries. What I would suggest are some cheap touch up guns. I have 4 of them and use them for different coloured paints etc. but they should work fine for any other finishes.

    Good tip Mike. I will have to try that.

    A great idea and nice looking job. Just a thought, I do occasionally have good ones. This may or may not be that time Placing a hack saw blade on the wood strip with the teeth just proud so you would not need to cut the paper. You could then hang it on a wall. Just thinking out loud.

    Good enough for me. I just keep on scrolling if I see something I don't agree with, Just like I wouldn't stop the car and complain or spray paint a reply on a bill board I never agreed with, just keep on keeping on. People are going to have a hard job changing my mind about a lot of things and I reckon I would have the same problem with them, so I'd rather have a beer then stress about immovable objects.

    Just hang in their mate. When I started making things a while ago after quite a few years of staying away from shed, I'd come across a pattern or jig and Think "What in the hell did I make this for". I'll even see a few toys I have made and wonder" How did I make that do that etc" It comes back after a while, or the upside is you can discover a whole new and different way of doing things

    I have a supply of #1, 2 and 3's. spirals. Depending upon how fine the cut is or the width of the lines as to which blade I use. Just have fun
  19. John B
    He'll be kicking that Devils arse again Nice cutting. I often use both flat and spiral blades, just for that sort of thing. Long straight, looping cuts the flat lots of twists and turns = Spiral

    A Helda Botas Pattern. He made this when we had the bushfires in Oz. I love it. Very well executed

    Very nice Denny. Money boxes are great gifts. I used to make a few. I purchased about 20 musical inserts, that you set into the top. They have the money slot in them and play a tune as the money passes though. Sadly I never used any as the slot is to narrow for our 50 cent piece.
  24. John B
    Really neat.

    You are bound to enjoy your new saw Ike. My worst fear is that when I die the missus will sell all my tools for price I told her I paid for them
