those are pretty nice.

Nice write up. You included pictures and village people.

I have tasted strawberry ever clear boy did it burn going down. Smelled just like strawberries. Borax soap is still available.

also call your local Rockler shop. or woodcrafters

Dancing M & M's would be good for many holidays, or the weekends or football days or . . .

Looks good. Now if the pie was cherry instead of apple it would be better. Thanks for the pics. Enjoy your new toys, food and the new year.

Just read the tutorial. Thanks for the suggestion. I will glue on the backer first. Then make sure the seal from each circle to backer. Maybe spray clear coat spray so wood is not going from bubble layer. I will do the smaller circles first. If stuff goes wrong, I can easily cut smaller failure out. I chose the polyester resin which can be tricky to figure out how many drops of catalyst to use. My wood is 3/8", so the instructions say do resin in layers. Oh more ways to screw it up.

nice way to hide screws. Nice artwork to show action of the player.

Looks pretty good. The curves in the fingers are NOT jagged. The forearm curves and hair are also smooth. This a really nice project.

My goal is to create a plaque that 1)holds and protects an 8 inch silicon wafer. It is like a thin sheet of glass. 2) Has Co-workers name with a title of Technical Product Lead "TPL". project in work... All wood shown is Myrtle also known as pepper wood. Our project name has "pepper" in its name. 2 pics shows the un-stained full concept. Notice top portion of pic shows the pattern and concept. Kinda a saturn ring the label TPL. Yes this is a play on letters "JPL". 2 moons symbolize his two Jr engineers. When this guy holds his weekly meetings he has a calming effect of the whole team. He really deserves recognition. His background on his computer shows space pictures. next 2 pics shows stained plaque and contrast of his name letters. I will be pouring polyester resin over the whole 8 inch wafer. Also the moons will have cut wafer material cover with resin. My last progress was Dec 18th. I got an unwanted b-day present that paused my progress. I like the font choice but when choosing a font, I forgot to think about angle cuts. See last picture. This small thin piece of wood was a concern but overall it came out great. Need to make BB plywood backer, glue letters in, seal and finish boards. Then add wafer material and pour polyester resin. If there is any cool things I can do before finishing it I would love ideas.

This meant as encouragement to get the saw What a nice intarsia project for the new hawk., an apple pie. Full size not those small ones from Wal-Mart. Ok maybe a scrollsaw MarieC Bobble head as a pie topper ornament. Looking forward for the pictures. .

@OCtoolguy I thought you retired being a tool sales guy. Printer is a tool right.

my 26" hawk fit into my prius. But I had to remove the legs. Careful with the cord. The frame may cut or damage the cord. I stuck something under the frame so the cord was not under pressure.

So that is how he fits down the chimney. He splits into 6 Santa's. Nice and cute projects. Is that a long mustache?

I see a lady with a bad hair day. I also see a great project completed and nice work.

Welcome to the village. I am Mark from California. I too have the 26" Hawk. Nice choice. With your introduction, you will pick up scrollsaw fast. Then we can see some of your ideas. It is always fun to learn from masters Feel free to ask dumb questions. I did a lot. I still do. But this village likes to help.

My opinion... get it. This picture looks a bit better than the used one I picked up a few years ago 2020. I paid $400. I am the 3rd owner. I have had no issues with this saw at all. My table has some deep scratches from other metal propably being dropped. The one your looking at the boot to blow air looks really black maybe it has been replaced or just cleaned. It also has the lockline already installed mine did not. Definitely ask for all parts. The bottom clamps cost $25. I bought spares the year. Me. Mark Eason

One day a sasquatch was lurking near some green trees. He was approaching a small home. He wanted to see what the stone structure is used for. Then all of a sudden a big red Rigid came from the sky and scared him away.

yep my cabinent has lots -o- stuff. top shelf: skillsaw , spotting scope , fishing box is a jewelry tool box, and the travel tool bag is equipped with mostly electrical fix it tools. next shelf down: electronic components. including fasteners next shelf: miter saw. bottom shelf: Microscope and other heavy stuff.

My brother owns a guitar parts store so I'm going to check with him to see if he has any of them...... Most potentiometers for audio equipment are non-linear.

The pots in my cabinent are all 10k. 4 are non-linear. I have qty 10 total. So this anchor link is a good choice. https://anchor-electronics.com/product/single-turn-panel-mount-pot/ A Jameco link ..... https://www.jameco.com/z/RV24AF-10-40R1-B5K-Taiwan-Alpha-5K-Ohm-500-mW-24-mm-20-1-315-Inch-Round-Shaft-Solder-Lugs-Linear-Taper-Potentiometer_2268919.html

that has a long lead time. I might have 1 in my cabinent. Let me check. If not there is another electronic component store in San jose.

Nice pieces and the gift of peace was a good decision. Thank you for sharing this story. Me. Mark Eason

Pot features.. ohms, linear vs non-liner, watts. Physical size is part of the watts. when you have it apart send me or us a picture. If you have an ohmeter, Measure the ohms across the widest pins. digikey.com mouser.com

human powered Reindeer, I love it.
