  1. Wow! Really beautiful! Love everything about it. Very much worth the time and effort.
  2. Dick, you are so sweet to say that...I am just learning...I kind of just make things up as I go along...sometimes they turn out okay and other times not so much...but if we don't try, how would we ever know? Thank you again for your kind words. You do amazing work!
  3. Welcome from Eastern Washington!..nice work, thank you for sharing!
  4. Really nice, I also think the frame looks lovely with it.
  5. Lovely!
  6. Really nice! I Love the dream catcher especially!
  7. Happy Anniversary! Cute little Gnome!
  8. Ray, if you get a minute, could you take a picture of your slide in/out boxes...are they on the floor or just under the saw table?
  9. Wow, that tree really pops with color. They are both lovely!
  10. Where did you get that board?...it looks like an ostrich! Too Funny! Oh, forgot to answer the question...irises and pansies....
  11. Oh, okay...for some reason it didn't show up as a video on my phone...Dumb phone ...that is very clever and looks tricky to cut...excellent work!
  12. Oh, soooo cute. Great Happy colors! Nice work, I am curious what it looks like all apart....

    roosters

    Well, seeing all those roosters lined up made me happy...thanks for sharing
  15. Ray, what do you mean by "set the tension with the slider"? I also flip the lever for applying and loosening but not sure what the slider is? Thanks, mc
  16. It is a bit hard to tell on my computer....are they a bit lavender grayish in color. I bet it burned some when you cut it since it is such a crazy hard wood. I did see this picture of someone who made a spoon out of lilac....I think I will have to see if I can find some up here in Spokane. Thanks again for the tip
  17. Thank you for the link...wow that is one crazy Hard wood " Janka Hardness: 2,350" compared to Purple heart at 1860.
  18. Rick, I love the Hudson Valley...so pretty there.....Okay, I will look at the big orange box store as well as our local lumber store for purple poplar. Do you know if your finish it with a UV finish if it will keep its purple color? Thank you!
  19. I am so looking forward to it. Is the tree a dark purple lilac. Paul @Scrappile I will definetly believe a scroller over a lathe turner...evem though I do both
  20. I was told by a turner (lathe) that he had a dark purple lilac at his mom's house and said it was lilac...but I never saw it. We have a few Italian prune trees and their wood is kind of a light plum color...but when I saw it, I was not a wood worker so we gave it to a friend...darn. I wish my husband would let me cut one down...but no luck there!
  21. Yes. I thought I heard someone say something about lilacs a long time ago...I do live near the "lilac city". Wow, so hard to find a dead lilac big enough.... I don't need very big pieces though. I really don't do intarsia...not sure what you would call what I do...but kind of like intarsia...so small pieces. I will check on the box elder and the poplar that @Scrappilementioned. Thank you for the suggestions!
  22. Not sure under what topic to put this question...Anyway thought this was an okay spot....so I am looking for a nice light purple wood. Does anyone know if there is a wood that color and where I might find it. I do not need very much....thanks ahead of time.
  23. I love to use the air brush but it can be a pain to keep clean. But I can see where you airbrushed since it really adds depth and so pretty. Very beautiful!
  24. I have a few squares but I really only trust my Groz machinist square.
  25. That is very nice and nice choice of woods!
