Wow! It looks great! Paul, where did you get the piece that he welded to in the first place? Was that from Grizzly? -
I love your bear ....As you mentioned, I am not sure about the background either. Perhaps the grain of the frame and the grain of the background are distracting me...not sure. Maybe more of a lighter boring colored background. Here is a painting of a horse that I thought looked good with the background. If you had a bigger background, and since you airbrush very well, you could do a moon so that is what is lighting his fir like this picture I found on etsy but maybe you don't really want the silhouette look... Not sure if this helps. marie

Very nice! I love the colors as well!

Great cutting. I know all those straight lines are hard to cut. Wonderful design!
-
I really like it! I wouldn't change a thing now.

Welcome from Washington State! Yes, if you have any questions about scrolling you can post them in the General scroll saw section of the forum or the Q&A section. Folks are very helpful. Great work on your Green Bay logo!

Ray, lucky you for finding a 12 inch disk sander for that price....Great find!

I just went up in size from my EX 21 to now a Hawk G426 (so 26") I really did like the extra space to swing around my boards. I think going big just gives you more options. I want to eventually do scroll work on some furniture as well as doing larger pieces so I needed the extra size. The Seyco 24 does have a nice big table but I am sure either the King or the Pegas would also be wonderful saws....I really do like the Hawk G4... it is a beast compared to my Excalibur. By the way, I just love the picture of your daughter and you...thanks for sharing!

Very nice! I miss Idaho....graduated from Coeur d'Alene HS and North Idaho College. Really nice work. And your idea for using a counter weight is an excellent idea. I will be using that on my current project as well. Thanks for the idea! Marie

Dick, I bet she really did like it. It is really colorful and it has a vintage look to it as well. Reminds me of some of my dresses I wore as a little kid.... Really nice!
-
Wow, thanks for those tips. Especially the one from Home Depot. I won't be doing any fretwork on this project but I have had problems in the past with length of drill bits so this is very helpful. Thanks again! Marie

@Rolf Very nice!...so you don't get any drifting of your blade? What size of blade do you use!
-
Happy birthday Paul! Glad you could share it with your family! Wishing you many more wonderful birthdays!

Barb. Really nice and springy! What was your wood for the leaves?

Bob, I actually did that by accident fairly recently too.... but it was a bit scary in that I thought it might explode into a gazillion pieces...but thankfully it didn't.

RJ, from what everyone said it just doesn't go as slow as I would like. So I am considering the the one here by Foredom: https://intarsia.com/collections/hardware/products/foredom-variable-speed-bench-lathe?variant=31902373806123 But I like the option that Dave has of putting on a chuck to change to a larger diameter shaft...so I just don't know. I know with Dave's idea it would require a machinist to make a piece, which I am not oppose to having done. It's just that it still runs at 1750 RPMs where as the Foredom goes down to 500 RPMs..... I decided that the Bauer could work that way and it can go faster (which I am not interested in) and I really like the quality of Rikon....I have a few of their tools...Would like to know your thoughts?
-
Yes, my EX 21 is set up that way....I guess I will have to build another shelf for my Hawk...No problem...I like shelves
-
Nice work. Thanks for the reminder when Easter is.
-
Charlie, Always fun to see your work. I love the thistle, did you have that on the previous one...I can't remember it. Also, you really did a nice job on his eyes. Pretty intense gaze.
-
Okay, I got it. Thanks so very much!
-
Thank you for the tip especially regarding keeping the pieces of boards the same size if at all possible if taping and if not the use of pinning etc....and I will work hard on taking my time. Thanks again!
-
Thanks Jim for the tips and for the reminder to keep everything straight and look at the blade. I don't want to screw this up if at all possible
