  1. Both look great! Nice job.
  2. Nice! Very clean looking.
  3. All 3 of my orders from Ocooch have been perfect. Give them a try. https://ocoochhardwoods.com/
  4. Nice! Another idea is to not add the hanging ring and attach a magnet to the backs of them and place them on the refrigerator.
  5. Thanks Rodney!
  6. Before reading your description I thought that it looked like a pattern by Don! LOL Very nice pattern, wood, and cut... well done. Don, what font is the script writing?
  7. Thanks! I am the "color picker outer" and my wife is the "color applier" LOL Steve Good's website,, I have included a link. https://www.stevedgood.com/snowmanseg.pdf
  8. Thanks Ron
  9. Thanks!
  10. Thanks Don! It is the small version. I have wanted to make the larger one, just haven't done it yet. This is also the pattern I will use for my first intarsia project if I ever dip my toes in that art form.
  11. I made a few of these last year. My sister saw one that had a red/red scarf and wanted one. So I made her one and one for her friend that likes the Illinois college teams. Made from 3/4" MDF with a 1/8" BBply backer. My wife does the painting.
  12. Awesome job! Loved the movie. Great timing too with the Little League World Series going on. I used to be a huge baseball fan back when I lived in Illinois. Go Cubbies! When I moved to Florida in '89 the Cubs weren't on tv down here, so I lost interest in baseball. But I have always watch the LLWS games,, almost every game each year. One of these days I hope to make it to Williamsport and see some games in person. If not Williamsport, than maybe Warner Robbins, GA to see some of the reginal games,, it's a lot closer too. A team about 10 miles from me, Lake Mary Florida made it to the reginal this year. I usually pull for a Tennessee team as they usually make it to the finals.
  13. I don't think you can ever go wrong with putting Maple and Walnut together,,, especially with you behind the saw!
  14. I was on vacation last week and still have a couple of days left before heading back to work. Decided to make some more jack-o-lanterns. I made some 3 sides, rather large ones several years ago, but I kept finding myself watching Travis' video tutorial on his versions and decided to make some smaller ones. I just made one today to see how everything went and will make more over the next day or so. I used some old Cedar fence boards that I kept after a hurricane knocked down my fence a few years ago... Oh, side story.... I needed to change the blades on my planer before sending anymore boards thru it. So yesterday I took it all apart and reversed the blades and cleaned/lubed everything up.. looks and operates like brand new! Back to Jack... I had some orange paint that I thinned out a little so that the grain and torch marks would show. I just need to order me some LED's to finish it. I made another one of these jack-o-lanterns and received some lights that I ordered. In a couple of the pics I have just some regular tea lights in the bottoms. Another pic I have the LED light strand that I ordered,, I like both lights but the LED's can flash a variety of ways.
  15. Thank you sir, much appreciated.
  16. Thanks Melanie!
  17. All good Denny,, it was very early in the morning when we were on I-75 near you. We go up every year,, maybe next year we can stop by.
  18. Nice work! My wife and I drove past Dayton on our way to Kentucky about 2 weeks ago. I mentioned to her that I wanted to stop at Art Crafters but they weren't open yet when we were passing thru.
  19. Thank you sir!
  20. I think you can buy lengths of the blower tubes,, maybe extend yours and bend it however you need it? Google Loc line.
  21. Seems like all I am making lately are memorial items for friends and family. A good friend up in Kentucky Mom passed away recently. We had trip planned to go North with Kentucky being one of the stops. I saw barbs "Wings" plaque and thought that it would be nice for her. Made from 5/8'' Maple with 1/8" BBply for the backer. Used my go to blade FD UR1. The first pic was when it was laying out to dry, second pic was hanging on my shop wall,, pics didn't turn out well. I swear I spend more time finding the correct placement for patterns than cutting! I was trying to get the birds flying into that "light", ( the lighter spots of grain)
  22. It's open to interpretation.
