Since the Granddaughters got rubber band revolvers for Christmas, I had to make me one.
I went with the double barrel rubberband gun. After all there is 2 of them and only one of me!
My Brother Barry has taken an interest in scroll sawing. He came over yesterday and cut his first piece.
He was worried about his fingers being so close to the blade. I told him not to worry about it since all his right hand fingers have already been cut off. LOL
WOW, you are absolutely correct. I think I might need to recut that one.
The great thing about that is my brother and I will get a huge laugh out of that. There is always some sort of mishap when we do things and we roll on the floor laughing!!!!!
My Brother Barry moved here from Denver at the beginning of September. He is also a woodworker.
This is our first joint project. I did the scrolling and he did the frames and finishing. I wish I could make frames 1/4 the quality that he does.
I couldn't decide which photo I liked best so here are both of them.
Jesus is for my Wife.
Geronimo is for my son.
The Native American is for my Step Mother Inlaw.
The recipe holder is for my mother inlaw
The Double stack box is for my father inlaw
The God box is for my ex wife.
The big "Sure enough treasure box is for my Daughter-in-law to keep one of my granddaughters most precious things.
The Fairy Princess wands and the rubber band guns are for my 2 Granddaughters.
Months and months have been put into these gifts of love.
Cut your 45's then set the table saw at a 45. Put your fence close to the blade, set the blade for the depth you want them in the frame and then run them through the correct direction. Normally a joint for boxes but I wanted to do it on that frame.
This is for my wife for Christmas.
The portrait is from an Acadia Cutting Board.
The frame is OLD OLD wormy oak with Walnut Splines.
The acadia was 3/4 thick so I made a slightly larger underframe out of oak so it would match the thickness of the portrait and add a little dimension to the square frame.
The last push block I made, I gave to my brother. This one I made for myself unless someone buys it.
Poplar and alder handle, Rough cut oak base, replaceable cedar cleat. Finished with satin poly.
Since I cut my finger almost all the was off, I have been a fan of pushbocks for the tablesaw. I usually just use a leftover stick or my plastic one.
Here is the first one that I made in my shop. I have another one in the works.
