  1. Great work. Both are very nice!
  2. Dick, what a very special project...really nice designing on your part. I also have been working on a project and am making things up as I go along...so I can understand that what you just made must have taken many hours of designing, looking at it three dimensionly and then cutting it. Wow! Really makes you exercise you brain!....Good for you!

    I have a G4 and Kevin has helped me @kmmcrafts. He may be able to help. Marie
  4. Paul, That is amazing! It looks like it is ready to move right out of the picture frame. I can't believe the detail. Excellent work...Now I hope you get to buy your new lawn mower and start mowing. I see it has been quite warm down in your neck of the woods. ....Also, to get those longer straight lines, did use a razor or something to score the wood before cutting it?
  5. Barb that is so perfect for this time of year. Makes me want spring to come soon! Very beautiful!
  6. Let us know what you think of it. I am looking for something for dust collection for my lathe right now as well. Marie
  7. Really nice....I didn't know you painted like that. Nice selection of colors and blending almost looked like you airbrushed it. Very pretty, I can see why you wife and daughter want one as well...
  8. Dick, you should never hang up scrolling, you do such fantastic work....I think I missed your 57 Chevy...But this moose is wonderful...what a lot of fret work. What type/size of blades did you use? it doesn't look like those spiral ones were used. Also I really like your frame with this one.
  9. Welcome from Washington State! I use clear spray lacquer when I am not sure what to use. Great videos on YouTube on how to use it. Easy-peasy
  10. Wow! Excellent work and very creative! One of your best! Thank you for showing it to us! I love his music and his movies as well! So have you done all the "Outlaws"? I can't remember seeing Willie....
  11. Wow! It looks great! Paul, where did you get the piece that he welded to in the first place? Was that from Grizzly?
  12. 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
  13. Very nice! I love the colors as well!
  14. Great cutting. I know all those straight lines are hard to cut. Wonderful design!
  15. I really like it! I wouldn't change a thing now.
  16. 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!
  17. Ray, lucky you for finding a 12 inch disk sander for that price....Great find!
  18. 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!
  19. 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
  20. 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!
  21. Barb. Really nice and springy! What was your wood for the leaves?
  22. Ralph, This is the first time I can remember seeing a scroll saw ship. Very nice
  23. Reservations in Walla Walla, Washington for some wine tasting
  24. 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?
  25. Nice work. Thanks for the reminder when Easter is.
