  1. Nicely done, beautiful. Jerry
  2. WHOA--- Those are really nice. Jerry I watched your video. I like seeing how other scrollers cut. I pick up quite a bit watching.
  3. This is very nice. I can see why people are impressed. So many things can be done with the scroll saw. It's a very versatile tool. Jerry
  4. WOW Ron, first post for a while. As Paul said, stepping up a few notches. I was starting to worry about you. Jerry
  5. Very nice Tyler. This is a beautiful pattern. As always enjoy your videos, especially this one. As you were cutting, I tried to image you as a little pirate. I could see the love in your heart for your mother and I am certain she is very proud of her little pirate. You will always be a baby to your mother. It is good to be a momma's boy. Thanks for sharing Tyler. Jerry
  6. Nice cutting Bernd and a beautiful bird. Thanks for sharing. Jerry
  7. Very nice cutting Denny; I found the patterns for these @ : https://www.thewinfieldcollection.com/product/Compound-Cut-Birdhouse-Ornaments-Project-Pattern once the winfield collection site pops up type "mini birdhouse pattern set" in the search box, then scroll all the was down to the bottom. Click on the picture of the standing birdhouses. That should get you there.
  8. WOW Bernd. That is some really smooth cutting. Are you certain this is not the output of AI? Looks too perfect. Jerry
  9. WOW!! Those are really nice Denny. Thank you for sharing. My plan is to cut some of these this year. Jerry
  10. Thank you Marie for your kind words. The wheels do turn. i did take some side pictures, but for some reason just did not turn out and were not very clear. Got tired of trying. When and if I get a decent picture, it will send it to you. Again, thanks for your kind words. Jerry
  11. Welcome to the Village David. Folks here are very helpful. We look forward to seeing your work and as time goes by receiving help from you. Jerry
  12. This is a different type of project. Will have to try it sometime. I have tried to find the disc you mentioned for older issues of the magazine but cannot find were to order. Can you lead me down the right path? As always, I enjoy your videos. Jerry
  13. After seeing Ron Johnson's posting of toys I had to try my luck. Seeing his posing of the F-16 fighter jet I decided to make one for a nephew who is a pilot in this aircraft. Probably not the easiest pattern to choose for my first attempt, but I think it turned out OK. I am pleased with it, hopefully my nephew is and you are too. Jerry
  14. Bernd. you are a pretty COOL guy for sharing your talents. Jerry
  15. Nicely done Charlie and what a great remembrance of your dad to be enjoyed by members of the family. To use parts of the piano for making is wonderful. Everyone gets a piece. Again Charlie, nicely done. Jerry
  16. WOW!!! Very cool Dick. I really like it. Took a lot of work on your part, from beginning to end. Jerry
  17. My only issue is that shipping is twice the price of what I ordered. I think it is what they are charged, don't know for sure. Otherwise I am 100% satisfied with Ocooch. They have quality products and service. Sometimes you just have to bite the bullet. Jerry
  18. That is very nice. Thanks for sharing. Jerry
  19. Man, that is great Paul. Bernd is a great guy and has helped me. Sometimes we all need a shove and a little encouragement, especially when that encouragement comes from a friend. Jerry
  20. This is a Steve Good layered pattern. Cut on 1/4 inch plywood. Reminded me of of the sugar diorama eggs my mother used to have when I was a kid.
  21. WOW Bernd, that looks great. Jerry
  22. I wouldn't even know how to begin a project like this. Simply amazing. Jerry
  23. Barb, I have the same system you have, so far so good and pleased with the Scrollnado. Now, it is not as good as the dust collection system many of our scroller friends and family have. They have built their own or have purchased upgraded systems. A couple of things that may help you is the vacuum you are using. Mine is a very cheap vacuum that I purchased at WalMart. Not very powerful but does OK. The other thing, you may have done this, is that some of the small pieces were sucked up in the tubing plugging it up, so suction is reduced. Result, sawdust falls to your cloths. What you have to do is a little maintenance. Undo the tubing and blow out the pieces stuck in the tubing. Sometimes just a good shake and the pieces will fall out. The main problem I have is the top tubing doesn't want to stay where I put it. When that moves, doesn't pick up all the dust. Sometimes the wood you are cutting creates sawdust that is kind of sticky and that is, I think the vacuum won't suck it up. I do most of my cutting with hardwoods and noticed the system can pick up the sawdust from hardwoods much easier. I have noticed the Scrollnado has a more difficult time with cedar and plywood. One other thing I am thinking getting a more powerful vacuum. Hopefully you understand what I'm saying. Many of my friends tell me, "Jerry, you are always talking but never say anything.". That said I close. I like reading about your projects and comments. Jerry
  24. Jimmy, your frame looks good to me. I recently did a project that requires a frame. Going to frame shop was expensive. Found a ready made frame the fit my project perfectly, but really flimsy. Like you, if found instructions very frustrating, didn't teach me a thing. Also youtube instructions for most things are primarily just showing off their abilities and equipment they have. My shop is very simple and tools I have are very limited, just basic tools for scrolling. I will keep trying. Jerry
