Thank you! Yes you are correct regarding the saw that I have. Thanks again

Welcome from The Evergree state - Washington.

Kevin @kmmcrafts, I did what you said with the allen wrench and oiling it and it worked....now time will tell. I will check the sharpness of the trangular shaped thing in the back....Thanks again for the tip...so glad you are part of the village!
-
Barb @barb.j.enders, thank so much! I took calligraphy in college so I tried to remember all the directions the letters were shaped. I goofed on a few but for the most part I think I remember correctly. It was really not too hard to do. Thanks again!
-
Thanks Paul. It was difficult to photograph. The background is really sparkly but it didn't come out. I will try to remember it bring it with me when I come down and see you....
-
Thanks Charlie! I haven't been to an irish pub either but I hope she feels the irish vibe from it!
-
This a modified Charlie @Charlie E rendition. Thank you Charlie! I changed the pattern he sent me because I wanted an Irish look (since they love Ireland) I had to actually cut and paste the letters and used white-out to make the pattern I wanted, plus she likes plants/trees so I added some leaves. Attached is the pattern Charlie made me as well as my final work. I also decided to do some hand carving since I wanted a bit more depth. I used green satin fabric in epoxy for the background over a thin sheet of Paruvian walnut.

Wow, I missed seeing this one....I was out of the area for a bit....I am so glad I got to see it....very wonderful work. -
Paul, I will have to see how that works when I come over to see you and Patti....

@kmmcrafts Kevin, As you may know already I am a rookie when it comes to the scrollsaws in need of repair......So, when you say "I will say if your front tension cam isn't adjusted properly and or worn out that it'll make that lever pop up and not hold the blade correctly" I am unsure what the front tension cam is. I have the Hawk G4 26 could you take a picture of what that looks like. I got my Hawk used so I do not have a manual to look at. My back knob pops up once in a while so was wondering why it is doing that....thank you.

Pretty!

Charlie, what a great idea....plus an excellent quote! Very nice job on cutting that font!
-
Do you know if it would fit on this thing. We sell these at Woodcraft....https://www.woodworkingshop.com/product/KX11307/?gad_source=1&gclid=CjwKCAjw-qi_BhBxEiwAkxvbkKAaRhETwHOmhlum9PI8Z5VS47TNw304hwFkbYuYlx0jnyveLGrpdxoCVLMQAvD_BwE

Paul do you mount it on a drill press then as well?
-
Fantastic! Great job!
-
Very cool! I love Willie....also, nice truck! I had a red one like that and wish I never traded it in.
-
Yes they do. I think I just got lucky and a bit compulsive obsessive I just kept turning it back and forth and then when I got it... I marked them with a pencil.
-
I love them all but I do feel that dragon fly box is my favorite. I love how you did the wings. What kind of wood did you use for the wings anyway? Holly?
-
Thanks Dave. So regarding the glue up....It would have been difficult but after I cut out the inside hole first and did not cut out the outside oval, I glued the bottom on (it was just a rectangular piece of wood) (I also pin nailed it in the corners that were going to be thrown away) let it dry over night. Then I cut the sides with the bottom all at once. I did the same for the top. Does that make sense?
-
Judy, could you post a picture of your wood. I am not familiar with that species. Thanks
-
Thank you! great glue up! When I make it I can put it in my drum sander which usually works pretty good on flattening as well because my glue ups usually do not turn out as well as yours!
-
Excellent! I too would like to make one as well. Hopefully this year... Where did you get your pattern for this one?
-
Wow! really nicely done. Amazing!
-
Thank you Charlie, so I decided to do the ribbon cutting because I am trying to figure out a way to do something similar with the Celtic Heart you sent me....but I cannot yet figure out how to do that. I have a couple ideas...I need to hurry up since their anniversary is coming up. Thanks again.
