  1. Well the Craft Show was this last weekend. Saturday is Always the biggest crowd. Sunday its only just after Church is over. Not as many.... So total after Paying back the Booth Fee I made a Grant total of $483.00. YeePeeYea.... :+} Was a little lower than the Normal from years gone by, but I am Always Thankful and we Always enjoy our time dealing with the Customers. ............... I forgot to snap pictures BEFORE THINGS GOT UNDER WAY and only remembered in the Afternoon. Its against Policy to take any Pictures during the show times. So I noticed a gal snapping pics of our table and asked Politely if she would snap some pis and Email them to me. She Happily said she would. Here are some of Her pics. Not excited about the Clarity, but will have to do. By the time I asked her I had pretty well sold Lots.... Thanks for being here....Danny :+}
  2. Well My First Look I Felt your Displays Looked Rich and Very well made. You gave me some thoughts about my next show. Congrats. Danny :+}
  3. Thanks to ALL for your comments. I did Learn a thing or two with your comments. One is the setting of the Light and also where your sitting (yes I sit to scroll) Old Legs just aren't like the used to be. I never learned to use the Magnifier that comes along with the Light. I am still going to Experiment with cutting on a Red Line. Thanks again My Friends..................Danny :+}
  4. Actually I was just wanting to read Others feelings about Their Favorite color to make the Cutting line. And I did get my answer. Majority cut on Black..........................Cool.......................Danny :+}
  5. What is your color line to cut on? I have Always used a Black line. Read in another Post that cutting on a Red Line is more Relaxing. Pros n Cons Please......................Danny :+}
  6. And I want to put in a bit or two too.... Stool at first as saw on work bench. Bunch of years this way. Was Younger so all was OK. Then was introduced to setting down lower. So a measured table I built along with a Fold up chair with cushion. Was so much better than before. Then and still is a Office chair. No arm rests. Just a roll around Cushioned with back. Works Good. :+}
  7. A Big Thanks to ALL. I did Experiment. John B. Your description is about right. In a way this piece has a look of its own. ............I will attach a Picture. Danny :+}
  8. Hoping to read posts Pro or Con on using Spray Poly Shades. It is a Stain and Polyurethane in a Spray can. My Very First Thoughts was Wow! Just Spray and wait to dry. Look Forward to Reading your Comments. Thanks Danny :+}
  9. Hey Jerry I buy my BB at Sloans too. Very rarely will the wood be what its stated to be. EXAMPLE 12 X 24" Always shy up to a 1/16" both ways. I just have learned to deal with it. Not a Big thing to me. Anyway...................................Danny :+}
  10. Thanks Bill.... Your bring back Many Memories of just never to worry about the Spray Glue and apply the pattern directly to the wood. I keep a spray bottle of Mineral Spirits and when the Cutting is done I just give the pattern a quick spray and within a Minute the pattern lifts off pretty as you please. Like you said just a good rub with the MS and not much sanding with 220 grit does the trick. Thanks to Everyone for their comments...........Love this Forum.......................Danny :+}
  11. What is the Brand Name for this spray glue? Thanks............Danny :+}
  12. Been using Walmart clear shelf paper since the first of this year. Have Always had some (very little) wood fibers that were lifted when removing the Pattern. So I say its the Sticky on the back of the Shelf Paper. Blue Tape had this problem as to why I stopped using it. Just Wondering if there has been invented a Better Removable adhesive paper that Will not lift the Fibers? A Proven method I used for a long time was to just Spray g;ue the back of the pattern and apply straight to the Wood blank. Only hang up I didn't like was using the Mineral Spirits to lift the pattern off. Worked Great, but was some Clean up of the Wood blank. SO MY INQUIRY IS WHAT DO ALL OF YOU USE NOW? Thanks for your reply...................Danny :+}
  13. Being off for a while I missed the story on these Beautiful Trophies. Thanks in Advance..............Danny :+}
  14. I do a similar pattern This one looks Outstanding. Wonderful Design. Me also would Love to cut it. Hint.... Danny :+}
  15. In Progress at this time. First 2 layers off the Hegner. Yes this will be a Great looking Cross. Will show later...........Danny :+}
  16. You did a Outstanding job of cutting each piece. I am also into Alex's patterns. This one you showed I just couldn't think of anything I could do with it. What are your plans for this one and say the Bumble Bee one? I have been into his Bowls which I find so Beautiful. Danny :+}
  17. Great Sales Scott. I am into Similar jigsaw pieces. By any chance can you give me your asking price for say the Dogs? Danny :+}
  18. Beautiful looking Pattern and Super cutting. Clean looking. Excellent Looking. Hey guess what? I LIKE THAT BOX. Funny story. Say 5 or so years back I got into that type boxes. Yes Crafts Show thing. Only ONE....Well I carted them boxes back home that first year. Lots of Looks and Likes and Many Compliments. I was Only asking $40.00. I had an assortment of a Dozen of them. Different sizes. Well the second year Still no Buyers. Even did the thing of marking the price down to $35.00. SAD. Well the THIRD YEAR CAME. Was in November. Kept the price at $35.00. One lady was Really liking them and wanted to buy FOUR. Said my price was To Cheap. Said her husband has been working with Wood Hobbies forever. So she did buy Four and Paid me $50.00 each! Wow! Double Wow! Oh yea her husband never got into Scrolling. OK nuff Boring Story.........................Danny :+}
  19. I clicked on your Posts and when I saw the Picture I think my mouth dropped open a bit. LOL I did also buy his pattern and at present, I have only left the final TWO pieces. Then the Fun will begin. Have viewed his video a few times and should be able to complete mine and Hopefully look as Clean cut and Elegant as yours................... Danny :+}
