I'm a stander, but would rather be a sitter

Hi Gary You print the pattern and then use the adhesive to glue it to the wood, I think 3M do it along with a few other brand names. Gary

Hi, a few of the guys on a UK forum recommend; Mirka Abranet Starter Kit http://www.agwoodcare.co.uk/Item/mirka_abranet_starter_kit they say it leaves a great finish and lasts a long time, providing you use the vacuum adapter on the pad. I think having a tube fitted to the pad would hinder your control over it, but each to their own. I'm not sure, but would guess you would get it over there in the US. Gary

Hi Toniho You could try this for your 'other' projects (not puzzles) - Cover the marine ply wood with white masking tape first. Then spray adhesive on your pattern and stick this to your wood. Then use sellotape / clear tape over the top. I think that using reverse blades also helps eliminate splinters When you have cut your pattern the white masking tape should peel off easily leaving no residue. I am not sure, but I think people who make puzzles use a spray varnish and cut with special blades, but I think they leave the pattern on the wood. Gary -
lovely! or should I say grotesque? Rick would be proud Gary

very nice, it's good to see a piece that has a 'setting' Gary

me! me! me! my sister and BIL look in any skips they come across, they are in there 70's so usually the pieces they bring are on the small side. I too am a hoarder, I have tried the patches but they bring me out in splinters. Gary

NEED ADVISE Ink Jet Transferes Directly to Wood
Scrappy Scroller replied to kcortese's topic in General Scroll Sawing
Hi Karen This is a theory, but I would say that photo type paper would be best, as it is shiny and when ever I've printed a photo, I have to be careful not to smudge the ink. Also I would have the printer set to 'best quality' as it uses more ink I think, then have the wooden blank as close to the printer and do the 'transfering' as quick as possible. A paint roller or ink roller might be good too. Hope this works, (if you try it) I think it's a great idea. Would you show some oictures if you do it please? Gary -
Looks great, I'm sure your grandson will love it. Gary
