  1. That is super !
  2. That's funny. I do the same. I can't wait for them to start to get dull . . . then my cuts are MUCH MORE IMPROVED. It's like ... 2a.m. with a piece of wood. Or - the blade just gets better and better after last call !!! hahahahaha
  3. Working on that Challenger now .. have the base done in walnut .. scored a BEAUTIFUL piece of MAPLE that I will be using for the car/clock .. can't wait.
  4. I'll go up and get a few more pieces soon .. when I do .. I'll send ya some pics of them ..
  5. Yeah .. it's a burl walnut I get locally . about 15 bucks a piece .. Most pieces are about 4-6 inches thick and vary in length and width. I have gotten a bunch of them that area about 10 inches wide and 12 inches or so long. I resaw them as I need 'em. Same thing - and - same piece that the guitar/pics were made out of. So .. I get a lot out of each piece. Happy to share if anyone wants some .. and just pays the shipping ..
  6. Thanks to Kevin for giving me the image and confidence and help to make this - and - to the help everyone else gave out. So - my son got promoted and is now "the man" just under the owner of the company. So - he's still going out on calls in his truck - BUT - he's got a desk. I left space on one side in case he wants one of those pens you mount on name plates. Or his card holder. With the virus I have not been able to visit him or his work. So - here it is - and next up - a Dodge Challenger. I've put both patterns in the library up here. As with building fishing rods - I share all.
  7. That is VERY COOL .. I'm trying to figure out how to do the same thing with my old DEPUTY SHERIFF badge .. and patch ..
  8. Well .. that just sounds fun !!! ONLY .. teach her the computer, too. You'll want to get SOME cutting in once in a while . hahahahaha Getting ready to get my 10 year old grand daughter on the saw a bit more. She's on a tear making little hearts and birds out of my scraps. Good thing I have TWO saws. Well .. those all LOOK GREAT ..
  9. You see many drum Sanders for sale on Craigslist. Some are very cheap. There's a Delta for 400 bucks I have been watching, and it's a 36 incher with lots of new belts. They work great - otherwise I use the one at the club. I also have the dewalt 13 inch planer and a delta 8 inch jointer. But boards have to be a minimum of 13 inches the manuals say - for those. Watch the ads. Someone is always selling something.
  10. OKAY Frank .. here it is with base and lettering
  11. OH DARN IT .. I forgot to put the lettering and the base on it. hahahahaha .. I'll get that done now. Dang !
  12. Frank .. Te gustó mi imagen en otra publicación, todavía no estaba lista, ya está hecha y aquí está si la quieres. Que te diviertas !
  13. oooooh .. cabinet doors .. there's a couple maple ones for give away in the vicinity today .. I better snag 'em .. 'cause that looks good, even if it was pressed ..
  14. There's someone giving away a SOLID CHERRY table in my vicinity !!! Trying to be the first one there to get it .. hahahhahha ... such a scrounge .. hahahaha
  15. BLO ????? I am not sure what that is ... That is a great plaque ! I wonder .. Maybe I can play off of that .. A Police Officer became a Proud Grandpa ? Something like that ? I'll have to think of that ..
  16. great job ! Funny little bird, for sure .. I could sit and watch those little buggers for hours ! Now .. she can ..
  17. Not perfect !?! I see nothing wrong with it .. at all .. gives me a yearning to try one myself .. the miters look perfect ! Good job !
  18. Those are REALLY cool .. Question - When making a trivit out of wood - that's for putting HOT stuff on, right ? What do you do to keep the wood from discoloring or burning when you put .. say .. a hot pan of spaghetti sauce on it, or something. (I chose the sauce just to see if I could spell it right hahhahaha) .... Being in wine country (Sonoma County, California - which is COUNTY ON FIRE country now) I make shapes and put wine corks in them .. afraid to have hot stuff sit on the wood.
  19. NICE SCORE !!!! I like all 3 of those ..
  20. WHOA .. he's staring right at me !!! Makes me think I'm dinner !!!! Great job !
  21. How big did you make those up on top .. ??? I'm thinking about making mine about 12" long .. maybe 15" ...
  22. I like 'em all .. but .. the ones with the masks ----- that's just GREAT !!!!
  23. I LIKE 'EM !!!! Very nice scrolling !
  24. great work - and - I like the take you did on the guitars up on top. I'm a guitar nut. I'm getting ready to make one in layers - and - hoping it turns out that nice. VERY NICE.
