  1. Welcome back! Looking forward to seeing what you cut.
  2. Thank you Joe, I agree completely. Happy to be back.
  3. Pretty sure other things would be burned first!
  4. Take her up on it, go do a tandem! You'll love it, and then come back and thank me later.
  5. I've put a little gallery up here. I've been cutting all kinds of things. My goal is to get to doing intarsia. I really like this Bill's type of Intarsia. https://www.youtube.com/@NewtonMakesArt I enjoy fret work as well. I'd like to do some pet portraits and even human portraits if possible. I just bought a scroll saw puzzle book on Amazon. I have a granddaughter in GA that needs some GPops made toys. Mostly I'm just having fun finding patterns and giving them a go. Trying everything I can. I'm a dabbler.
  6. Likewise, welcome. What is your favorite type of scroll'n so far?
  7. What a timely thread. I just ordered a headband magnifier. Fingers crossed this works better than what I have currently.
  8. Hi Marie, welcome from another newbie on there too. I wish I could have found a great saw like that when starting out. You are going to love that machine! Have you started cutting some pieces yet?
  9. I haven’t been on a message board or forum in years and years. I must say, y'all are absolutely amazing! This is a wonderful community here and I really appreciate it. Thank you again @CharleyL!
  10. Thx Bill! Bill’s are gathering...
  11. I can't complain. The Asheville VA has taken pretty good care of me. I tore my rotator cuff and my bicep in my left shoulder. I'm on the tail end of that recovery now, but the surgeon overthere fixed me right up. Nowhere near the pain I was in before. Recovery has been rough, but I'm nearly done. Next up my hearing.
  12. That drill sounds awesome. You use it to good effect.
  13. This one is a partial Steve Good design I cut a few days ago. I modified it with a pencil and then cut it.
  14. Awesome! Thank you!
  15. For my needs, this looks nice and seems a medium price point. I don't need the rails and things with the broader kit. $94 is easier for me to bite off than $199. https://www.leevalley.com/en-us/shop/tools/power-tool-accessories/router-accessories/101544-veritas-plunge-base-for-rotary-tools?item=05J6501 The mini tools line: https://www.leevalley.com/en-us/tools/brand/veritas/miniature-tools What are those used for? i've never seen such tools. Had NO idea the existed. They appear to be serious tool though. So I assume there is a market. What are people making with these?
  16. Do you happen to have any pictures of this in use with your dremel?
  17. Thank you for your service brother. My last civilian flying was as a Capt in CAP. I was doing cadet O rides. That was a lot of fun. It was at that airport that I was introduced to skydiving. My hearing is damaged, but nothing close to what you have going on. I have some ringing most all the time. The VA was in the process of getting me into hearing aids when COVID started. It’s been paused for a bit now. Eventually I will do it. Kinda resistant and stubborn.
  18. Hey Bruce, I am a commercial pilot and CFI/I as well. I have not been current or given any dual in over 15 years though. When I made my first skydive it was like a heroin addiction. It was all I did for the better part of 12 years. Now I just try to live a quiet life in the woods out of the way and hopefully mostly out of mind. Bill
  19. Welcome from another newb in NC.
  20. Can I adopt you to be my favorite rich aunt? It should hold up forever at that price though. Nice looking kit.
  21. This is like my 4th project that I've cut since returning to scrolling. All have been his patterns so far. This one is a mess, but it's the only one I feel comfortable sharing. *blush*
  22. We are not far apart. We are in WNC about an hour west of Trashville. There is a lady that runs an Intarsia class over near Sevierville, TN. Hoping to be able to go check that out someday soon. Are you near there? Do you know the school I'm talking about by chance? Ever been?
  23. Excellent work. This old soldier is partial to that top right one.
