  1. Wow! that is beautiful! I love Peacocks...really well done!
  2. Very nice and a great story! It really is very beautiful
  3. Very Nice Tbow! @Charlie E makes great patterns!
  4. Yes, I get it....I really try to get good old wood from estate sales...it seems like all the really old pieces are better quality if you can get them...I have bought wood at Ocooch at your recommendation and so far so good....I have not bought plywood from them. I heard Intermountain Wood Products BB in Spokane has better plywood than Windsor. I may check them out soon.
  5. Jimmy, I too do not like crummy plywood. I guess it pays to get the good stuff. I actually do not use plywood anymore for my cuttings even thought alot of folks do (mostly baltic birch). I love cutting non-processsed wood...maple, walnut, aspen even exotic woods....much more fulfilling for me. But I do love the pattern you are cutting...it will be really nice when you are done and I can't wait to see it!
  6. Welcome from Washington State! Can't wait to see what you are making on your Ryobi.
  7. Bo, Welcome to the village from Washington State where we are having quite the snowstorm! Scroll sawing can be such a wonderful art form....Can't wait to see your work especially if it has that Swedish influence. Marie
  8. Almost all the very fine sanding I do, I use a Foredom rotary tool with multiple hand pieces that I can use with pretty much any Dremel or Kutzall burrs/sanding items or others. I bought mine on craigslist but here is an example of it: https://www.woodcraft.com/products/foredom-5200-deluxe-kit?gclid=CjwKCAiA04arBhAkEiwAuNOsIoedfaJnI9NNuSpZ8scwF4ufXxUUWvxhVWNJaHfOJ_fUMKRWAxL2zRoC8qEQAvD_BwE&gclsrc=aw.ds I also have a multi tool but it is so bulky for some of my fine work that I have trouble using it. My favorite sanders are these EZ lock by dremel: They are like minnie mop sanders...they don't last too long but they have the different grits.
  9. I believe it was a miss-spelling....So I tried this SCROLLSAWINSPIRATIONS.COM But even at that, I just checked and when you click on the patterns it takes you to Target of all things....
  10. Thanks so much Travis, I am so excited to look through these. I will be using them I am sure, so will donate to one of my favorite Charities. Thanks again!
  11. Ray, thanks...I will try either my hair dryer or my heat gun on really low....thanks for the tip
  12. Those are cute!...I am curious, why did your put the plexiglass on as a backer? To keep them more stable?
  13. Wow, I love the eyes on your bee! really nice work as always!
  14. Wow, I have always loved your work... the tool box is really nice and I especially love the "God Box"...definitely could use that one!
  15. @rafairchild2 thank you for letting me know about James. He does still sell them so I ordered one from him. Now I just got my Loc-line today but how do you connect them? I practically stood on them and I can't seem to be able to collect the blue connectors together.
  16. Thank you so much...so there are quite a few James on here...which one makes the bottom vac attachment and does he sell the attachment? If so how do I get a hold of him? That looks like a great idea, especially the dust gate to control the suction. Thank you for taking the time to take pictures and share them....much appreciated!
  17. Thanks again, I would love to see a picture of the underside, and how that hooks up to your suction pipe...thank you!
  18. Rolf, thanks for your picture of the trap you made...a mini cyclone is a great idea. I do have a request, could you take a picture of your entire dust set up, I can't figure out where your pivot piece would be on your unit (that @Scrappile mentioned and took a picture of) in relation to your trap. Thank you! Marie
  19. Thanks Paul, It looks like you can...remind me of putting together legos!
  20. Nice idea. I am sure they will love them!
  21. Thank you...would you recommend two kits or is one kit long enough? Thanks again
  22. Richard, Where did you get your locline and the connection you added to your dust gate? Thank you, Marie
  23. Charlie, That is really a nice piece. I really love how simplistic it is...especially on the Cherry wood.... Very artistic.
  24. Paul. That is awesome! You really captured him well.
  25. Barb, nice work...really an interesting piece.
