  1. Their great Kevin, what a nice selection.
  2. Very nice. Did you do the pattern and the cut? The way you have completed your nephew's portratit, Pick a nomber...$40 to $80 I'm sorry for you and your family's loss.
  3. I do like the wood, that is good looking Oak. Your scrollwork is outstanding. Good choice of fonts. Question, is the last word in the Searle sign how it is normally spelled?
  4. Looks like you were itching to go. Haven't lost your touch after having a weekend off. Another day off and you may have only been able to cut 10 pieces. Hey Kevin, super job again.
  5. Damian, Welcome. I'm surprised you had a problem finding SSV. Scroll Saw Village is know around the world. There are many streets and alleys to explore and when you get tired and want a rest, stop in the Cafe for a fresh cup o whatUlike. Good place to chat with us.
  6. I could critique if the origin of this beautiful portrait were shown also. Good work.
  7. That looks good, hope it draws customers. I'm bad at pricing.
  8. You're all right, but wouldn't you drop the price by $40 to $50 without a stand?
  9. Which boat is yours? Just looking at this picture, I see loads of possible scroll patterns. I haven't looked at your profile but it should say something about 'fishing'. Welcome to SSV and adding another beautiful section of the world to our family here. We welcome advice and love new ideas. As Kevin says, ask and you will receive an answer. Oh, breakfast is your treat tomorrow (or today if you want). I take my coffee with just 1/2 fn 1/2 Remenber to fix tea and chai. Again, welcome 'HERE'.
  10. It's less than 20 miles, I'd pick up or he'd deliver. THere are three others within 50 miles on Craigslist ... 1) $450, 2) $350, 3) $325 I'm going to irritate them all... and offer $175 Never know what may happen.
  11. A show cage and not only a bird cage, also a decorative piece.
  12. What price does a new Dewalt 788 go for now days? This guy wants $350 for used, without a stand. Thought I would tell him Amazon has new for $399 with stand. And Grizzly has them for $450 and I'll give him $175. He'll probably be insulted and not reply. Got nothing to lose I guess. Use it for backup and do what Jim Finn does. Set it up for inlay meantime. Thanks all.
  13. You got a winner! It looks great. The tray is a good addition. But, picture #1 looks like you might get bit if you reach for the gumball. I made one once and the gumballs would sometimes hang up. I didn't make the prize dispensor correct. It was a little hard to turn.
  14. Dick, that was a good try. I need the diagram of the switch. I have item 64 in 4 parts. The on/off switch, a plastic rocker, a small copper plate that the rocker uses for contact and the bottom housing that has the connectors. It's the small copper plate that I have to determine which way it goes in the housing. I put it all together once and when I turned it on, I blew a fuse. New fuse and I'll try again. Oh, I ordered a new switch... snail return, delivery in 15 to 20 days. I want to get it running or ...uh,,,twittle my thumbs for 3 weeks
  15. Very good and that deserves repeating, Very good.
  16. Said before.......Brushes
  17. Tindi Cindi you are welcome here. What kind is your new saw? We are reasonable folk here, don't expect much except for you to take your turn fixing tea and coffee some mornings. If you can cook, breakfast would be good. Remember, breakfast could be anytime since we are multi-national. If you fix eggs, some have to be fried upside down for our Australian and New Zealand members. Some in the southern zones like hot sauce. Make a 'Full English' for guess who. A Scottish breakfast is... well, porridge, sausage, pies and beer. But most of all...participate and show pictures.
  18. Congratulations! Make sure the table is set at 90 degrees with a compass or other method. Then look at the table tilt guage. See how close they match. Wax the table before you use it and wax frequently. Check and tighten all screws/bolts. Keep the sawdust under control...if that is possible with a new saw.
  19. Paul, Yes that looks exactly right. I took my switch apart and the cause of the problem was extra,extra fine collection of dust. I cleaned it up but made a amateur mistake. Didn't notice how to put it back together. I made a guess and blew a fuse. Now I need a fuse.
  20. Yes, Yes, Yes Praise God. With a jumper, it runs,
  21. This is the culprit. Thanks everyone for your help. And thank you Dick for the instructions. So now I have to go on a switch hunt. But I will not go to Salem, Mass,,, har har Do you know who might carry them. Oh, I don't want a foot switch.
  22. Looks good Roly. I guess most people like their name.
  23. I think this will inspire more ideas.... Like " Scroll a keyring that is a name"
  24. A grand picture frame. Beautifully done.
  25. I checked the fuse. I have all the side plates and covers off. Now I have to get my Bro-in-Law over to check power to switch. I could try Dicks suggestion ( take the on/off switch loose and jump the wires and if that makes the saw run, it is in your switch) ..if I trusted myself to do it right. Well, it is either the switch or the motor.........(I think)
