  1. when thing about not knowing a lot of people in our little village is that I don't get much compeny so seldom wind up giving things away unless I make them to go in the give away box lol iv lived here over 30 years and spikes only been here 15 years yet he knows just about everybody in town lol
  2. ok heres a few more things the light house I made from pieces of a log. lol the base still has the bark on it. lol I cut the light house from in the middle of log I use what ever wood I can find sometimes lol then theres the kids fishing kit...this picture shows the fish inside the box with the fishingpole in front of it and then way down at the bottom is the box closed and a better picture of the fishing pole. now sure whey the computer put the closed box picture way down there....lol I put them in here one right after another but oh well. lol I make a point of never trying to figure out why my computer does certin things lol then theres the deer shelves... there small shelves so I made 2 now the next one is a fret work picture frame from one of my wood magizines that I liked lol the last one is a door sign I made for mom... she had asked me to make her a go away sign lol when I saw this loony toons guy ( easer then trying to spell the first part of sams name ) I just knew it was perfect!! lol mom loved it and so did everyone who ever came to or knocked on her door lol I don't know what happened to it after she died ..but its not on the door anymore... oh well lol I think I made more then one and if not I can always make anotherone some day. lol im hoping to get into the wood shop tomarrow lol but who knows what tomarrow will bring. lol
  3. lol you think that's bad....spike cleaned up my wood shop!! lol its much neater now.....I do however have to either ask spike where some things are or say now If I were spike where would I have put such and such lol but to be honest he put most things in see through containers and labled each continer so it would be easer to find. lol he said he didn't know how I could find anything in that mess before he cleaned it lol hum maybe because I knew where everything was??lol
  4. well went to the top of your message where you tell everybody who each person is lol so now I know. lol love the way you framed them.
  5. oh that is so great!! it looks fantastic!!! and these horror show thimes is a great idea!! now I know alfried hiccok and egar allen poe put whos the other guy?lol I don't watch horror shows myself but I did ad still do have many of alfried hickock books and the complete works of poe. lol spike likes horror shows but I go to my craft room or the wood shop when he wants to watch them lol
  6. yes although I didn't get a chance to work on any of my crafts yesterday or today...… spending to much time talking on the phone. this cronovies is really getting annoying around here. first I talked to my daughter whos birthday was yesterday....then checking on my sister and my youngest brother to see how there doing.....there both doing good, but my sister in law is sick and my brother called 2 different places to see about getting her tested and each place told him to go to the other place!!! no wounder this dang thing is spreading.....my sister in law was staying with there son because my brother didn't want to risk maybe being a carrier to her as hes still working ( which is another reason I didn't get any crafting done..... I was making some masks for him and my sister) anyway now that shes sick with what we are hoping and praying will turn out to be just the flu shes back home and my brother is taking care of her....so now I pray my sister in law dosnt have the viries and that my brother wont catch what ever she has..... both have lung problems soo that makes it even more discerning. oh well...maybe tomarrow i''ll be able to get back to my crafts
  7. thanks!! first i'll just look and dream about getting one as im sure there proubly more money then I can afford lol might have to make a cnc envelope and see how fast I can save for such a great toy !! explation for the envelop.... my mom taught me this system because im so bad at math.... for each bill I have I have an envelope on the envelope first mom and then spike wrote how much money out of my check I need to put into each envelope... that way when the bill comes due I know I have enough money to pay the bills..lol most of the time I have a little left over.....so i'll have to start a cnc envelope and see how long it takes me to get up that much money! lol but all things come to those who wait... I keep telling myself that as I save for the things I want...I don't like it but it works. lol that's how I got my baby lock sewing machine and my baby lock emboridy sewing machine. not the most expensive one of course but not the cheapest either...spike talked to the guy and they figured out which one would be best for me and my budget. lol i'll do the same thing for this....if we both live long enough for me to save up the money!! lol
  8. totally awed by your work !! I try not to envy all you wounderful people who can make your own patterns !!!! if I did't know better I would have thought it was factory made and you bought it from the store.
  9. well its been a nice day. finished my plastic canvas project and started tracing and putting some wood patterns on to the wood. im going to try to make several of steve goods beauty toys... the hair drayer comb perfume bottle sissors…. and the bird in a bird cage. I like both those patterns.. im going to make several of that one too because I want one for me to go with the crocheted one mom made for me and one for my brother who didn't get a crocheted one ( I tried to crochet him one with out the pattern, it was ok and he took it home but it really didn't come out very good) the wood one will look a lot better. if we ever find moms crocheted pattern i'll crochet him another one. iv got all her patterns that we were able to find but of course that one pattern is the one we didn't find. ah well any way im off to do some more tracing in hopes I can do some cutting tomarrow.
  10. love the piece!! hum iv never had any problems with the spiral blades.... but then again I don't really have any idea of what im doing!! lol I learned by just pretending the scroll saw was a big sewing machine!! lol the princable is the same except with one your putting things together and with the other your cutting them apart! lol I really don't know a thing about blade types or sizes or anything like that.... I just look at the wood, look at the pattern and then grab a blade that's not to big or fat for the lines on my board. I like the spiral blades because they make making puzzles easer and getting into tight spots a bit easer too. maybe I should go out and get some beginner scroll saw books and learn how to do it right?? but im not sure id enjoy scrolling as much if I had to figure out all those detail things.
  11. my you have been busy!!! lol and I love everything!! im goig to have to put some of my other projects on hold and back into my wood shop!!lol
  12. such wounderful and perfect projects for our milatary people!! im sure they will love and chearish them
  13. anouther wounderfull project!! seeing all these great pieces makes me think I might want to try something like that some day!!
  14. beautiful work!! im sure it looks great on your wall !!! and a nice teaching message as well. so far all I ever use is pine or Baltic burch lol but should I ever find some cider I will know it breaks easely. lol that's also why I only tend to do segmention projects lol I don't need a lot of different kinds of woods lol but I love looking at other peoples work!! iv thought of cheating once , and using my cheap pine wood then staining the pieces the proper wood colors... but then I thought hum better not even if I tell people its stained pine they might not like the idea lol
