i was just doing the sanding between coats this morning. I also was thinking is there a better way. Thanks. Now you gave me the answer ! !.

very clever. hah, for the next one... you could put winter harvest on one side (oranges) and summer crop on otherside.

Where is the lasagne?

so I stacked cut purple heart and Myrtle. purple heart janka hardness 2520 lb. Myrtle janka hardness 1270 lb. 1.0625 inches in total. Thrn for the center double stacked Myrtle. for a total of 1.125in thick.

That is so beautiful. The high contrast from edges to white background make it stand out. Therefor the edges have to be perfect. And they ARE. !!! Beautiful.

Some guy at my work is leaving. So I made him a farewell gift. The D and S are the logo. Attached are two pics. The tiny logos are my first attempt at angled cut for easy inlay. The purple heart should have dropped into the brown wood. But it didn't go all the way down. So I filed sanded until it fit. I had a setting of 1.8 deg angle. I should have accounted for 2x the blade thickness. The purple heart was 1/16th inch less thickness (1/2 vs 9/16.). So i played with fitting the brown wood into the purple heart hole. Ok I knew it would have gaps. I could put I could put a led light behind it and hilight the S. Also I can enhance the S by leaving the 1/16" above the D... I think that is called "relief". Anyway I was playing. The 2 big pieces I did not use angled cut. So I planned on making the inverse coloring. Why waste wood? On the boxes, they came out ok. One was better than the other. Both are acceptable. I will add 3 tiny magnets to hold the top on. Also I need to add semi-gloss finish. Maybe 4 coats. The tiny logos have Satin finish 3 coats. Mark.

Why hasn't anybody discussed this https://www.amazon.com/20-Roll-Stick-Release-Scroll/dp/B00I51270M page down to the description.

The state Kentucky quarter in the state inlay. Oooh, So you have an inlay in an inlay.

If he does not like it send it to me. I like it. Was it the painting that got you upset ? The cuts on the script word "storm" looks very clean cut.

details are interesting... Did anybody see the front grill?

Welcome. I'm Mark. I live 50 miles south of San Jose, Ca. I graduated high school in Camarillo just about 15 miles from Moorpark. Used to ride my bicycle to Pt Mugu.

The choice of blue sidelines was absolutely great.

Has anyone done bowls from wood slices?. Angle cut and still have bark on top of the rim. I thought about this 2 nights ago.

oh so nice. Details on the sheild is great. The horses faces and manes looks like should pet them.

wow a specialty gadget. Just think you could put a straight branch in it. Have the live bark still on the outer edge. Then you can watch the branch spiral to the ground. Maybe they can try a baseball bat? Why did the they need spiral cut?

I like your cowboy themes. You do have a good eye for that. Your bowls are also pretty cool. I was just thinking last night about what type of bowl to try for the first time. I agree, the best thing is to get sober. I stopped drinking in 1992.

Now on to Mars territories. Then we can jump to hubble pics.

beautiful red throated hummingbird.

very cool.

Interesting using cloth as a backer. I will keep that in mind. Good job on the eagle seal.

I see you live in the white loading zone. Loads of snow.

very nice vase. What angle of the table was the solid bowl done with?

So did cutting this take less time than looking for the previous one? Sometimes I look for hours for something my wife threw out years ago.

looks pretty mean and pretty.

Did the yellow rabbit taste like bananna? I see you took a bite out of it.
