Yea...but this was from Ocooch Hardwoods. The tape was 1 1/2 - 2 yrs old so I just got a fresh roll, and I got clear shelf liner. We'll see how that works.
-
That's a good idea Ron! I didn't think of that. I think I've got a router bit for that somewhere in the shop. Would you just stain the edges the same...dark stain...or paint chamfer black? I'm no good yet on finishes.

Yea, Jimmie's not having a good year. He didn't look too bad today All 4 of Mr. H's teams made the top 10! With Elliot winning!

1/4" B/BB plywood . I got some clear shelf liner and fresh blue tape today.

Check this out. Make your own patterns!

it's a modern version of a opaque projector. We had them in high school . I had to make a drawing using it for a class...so I put a pack of cigarettes on the table taped the paper on the wall and drew it perfectly. Now days if a high school kid pulled out a pack they would get in trouble. -
Run Kevin...run far away...lol Yup china phone number.

For my first segmentation I thought I would try something simple. This "Yin Yang Cats" is by unknown on the internet. Alex Fox did a very good video on it a while back. After watching it a couple of times I thought...why not! I started with a FD UR #1 on one whisker, one ear, and one nose. Then I switched to a Pegas #5 and did the rest...much easier. I can't believe the rest of the whiskers, eyes, and nose cut that well with a #5...when I had a little wander with a #1. Now I've got to round the edges, do the coloring, cut the backer, and mount the whole thing up! It may have to wait till Tuesday...there's a good possibility a trip to KC and Woodcrafter may happen tomorrow...a King 16" just might follow me home

Finished up the second CHIEFS plaque. I enlarged the arrowhead an inch and redid the CHIEFS enlarging and moved the spacing slightly. This one went smooth and quickly! I knew the problems I ran into on the first, thanks for all the help guys, and I used Pegas #5. I think this one's good enough to sell...? Watcha think? Would you sell as is...or do a frame?

Looks great Les! I've got an Alex Fox pattern I'm going to do soon. It's a deer ornament...3 layers. It will be my first layer attempt.
-
Very nice! I like the soldier's colored flag. The pickup looks like a 63 Chevy. I had a red one while stationed at Ft Sill OK.
-
No wood lathe here...some day I'll get a small one as I would like to try turning pens. But that's another time I may try to come up with something on Inkscape for a frig magnet. I could take a state ornament and shrink the center part...? How do you stick the magnet on...epoxy ?
-
When I saw the title of the thread that was the first thought through my head! I can get magnets and scroll frig magnets! lol Do you have any photos of yours...or a pattern? Where do you get patterns that small?
-
Thank you. I see some of the works you folks do...and my mind never stops thinking of the possibilities. I think I'm coming down with scroll fever...
-
That's very cool Ray! I don't think I have the patience to do that...lol
-
Thanks Les! I never noticed different types. I just grabbed a roll of blue tape and went to painting...I HATE to paint! I'll look for that also tomorrow.
-
WOW! that's some piece of work! Beautiful.
-
It was only taped up last night and cut. Didn't peal till today. That is a partial roll of tape I've had about 1 1/2 yrs. when we bought this house and repainted the inside. You think if I got a fresh roll it might not do it that bad? Does blue tape or frog tape make any difference? I'm still going to look for your clear shelf liner.
-
That's beautiful work Jim. And thanks for the tips! I knew the drill bit was way too big, but was to lazy to change it on a scrap test. Just wanted to see if I could do it with a tilting table...or at all lol. I will probably get a King 16' with a tilting head. I do love your "cat box" and I saw a photo Jim Finn put up of a bunch of boxes...the possibilities are endless! How do you make your boxes? He glues them solid and I think finishes them then cuts the lid off with a band saw. I don't have a band saw...yet.
-
I use the blue painters tape...spray glue the pattern method. Once I get the wood cut to size and trim the pattern to size, I give it a sanding...I think I've got 220 in the sander. Then I put on the tape overlapping each piece slightly. Then I give the back of the pattern a LIGHT spray of glue (I think I'm using Loctite brand) and let it sit 30 - 40 sec. then place it on the blue tape and smooth. I let it set 5-10 min, to get a drink, then start. The piece soothes out with a little sanding afterward, but I didn't think you needed to sand a second time. Also what's with the tape pulling up wood? What am I doing wrong...or is this normal?
-
Yea...I'm going to have to dig those two titles up again and start a scroller's library. Also watch that Dave Monk video again...and pay attention this time...lol. First time I saw it I thought...maybe in a year or so. Now I'm thinking my timetable just got moved up!
-
I want to spend some time and get fairly good at it. I really like the inlay boxes Jim Finn makes. I saw a pattern of Willie Nelson done in Intarsia...I'm thinking maybe I could do it.....in 3-4 years...maybe... It beautiful, but better left to you guys with years of experience I think.
-
Very nice work!! I don't know my tractors real well, as I was born/raised in Tulsa. But that looks like the old Ford 9N grandpa had on the farm when I was little.
-
Looks great! I need to do something with all my scraps...they're taking over my shop!!
-
Awesome piece of art!

2006...I didn't realize it's been that long ago. I watched a lot of his shows.
