  1. Nice job Ralph well scrolled.
  2. @flarud Welcome to the village. Lots of friendly helpful people here. Nice shop it looks very organized and clean! Yes, a shop is never big enough, no matter how big it is.
  3. @SCROLLSAW703 Thank you Brad. Irene
  4. That looks real good. Love the added tee and ball!!
  5. Glad you did it was necessary. LOL
  6. @SCROLLSAW703 Just reread my response to you. NOT experienced with finishes. OOps, meant very inexperienced. I was wondering why Ray gave my a funny face on my reply. LOL
  7. @trackman I would like to thank you for your valuable advise. I clamped some 80 grit to a flat and leveled surface and with a level and a square I got all my pieces butted up. Just took some determination and patience. Thank you, Thank you!!!
  8. @SCROLLSAW703 I'd like it for human consumtion, just in case thats how she uses it. I thinking just natural oils like for cutting boards and such. Would I be correct wsith that?
  9. Save trip. Enjoy yourself.
  10. Sorry Ray I'd post a picture but I can't figure it out on my laptop. I'd need someone to actually show me anyway I'm a visual learner. Thanks for trying much appreciated.
  11. @SCROLLSAW703 Hi Brad, I know I've heard to many bad stories regarding the table saw. I haven't cut the rings yet I'm still trying to butt the pieces up together to glue before scrolling the rings. I made a couple of bowls with cedar and I really enjoyed that ( that was with one plank of wood no butting required). I wanted to try some thing more creative. Any suggestions on finish would be great, I'm very experienced with finishes. Thanks Irene
  12. Oh I have a power planer. But I have wreaked more wood with that thing then I'd like to admit. No I'm just talking about a hand one.
  13. I have a ROK I've googled how to use it, how to set it up, I've had it apart so many times trying to understand it, but to no avail. Our school won't let adults learn liability reasons. But yes I need to take a course on planers and table saws.
  14. Thats really nice you did a great scroll work. Can't wait to see it finiished.
  15. Thank you It is working much better, I now feel that is is possible.
  16. Thank you now its good. Irene
  17. So I'm making a bowl and using different woods. A strip of walnut and a strip of I think maple total of seven alternating strips in all. I cut the 2" strips with the scroll saw followed the line but still not perfect. We have a table saw, but I've never used it (scared of it, I should get someone to show me the proper way to use it then I would probally be okay).I don't have a table planer, I do have a hand planer but for the life of me I cant figure out how to get the knife to move to adjust it. Any way, I've got my palm sander pressed in the vise upside down trying to even out the edges of these 2" strips and I'm have a heck of a time getting them flat so that the strips will butt up before glueing. My question is am I doing what I can or is there a better way? At the rate I'm going there might not be much left of these strips.LOL. Any suggestions would be very much adppreciated. Thanks Irene
  18. Your edited post is still the same. You are correct No such thing as too many dogs.
  19. Thanks Scrappile. How did you know I was going to ask. Irene
  20. Wow brought back memories. I can still hear Festus speak. God job great character pick.
  21. Super nice job of cutting. Turned out beautiful.
  22. It is nice to be retired. But somehow life gets a lot busier after retirement. Glad you didn’t have to pay for an empty box.
  23. Super cool. Well done Ron and Scrappile.
  24. Very nice projects. You haven’t been laying around.
  25. Well done Jon. And designed it. Good for you!!!
