  1. He just bought it and got it for $80. Not a major loss even if it ends up not working.
  2. Thank you I’ll pass it on to my brother.
  3. My brother is thinking about buying this at an auction. Can anyone tell me how it looks, what shape it's in? He says the folks who had it didn't use it much. How old is this one? How much would you ask for it if it could be cleaned up and worked ok. Thanks for any input.
  4. 321 3oz of mineral spirits, two oz. of polyurethane, one oz of BLO.
  5. Great job! That is a beautiful cross. Can you tell me where I could find the pattern?
  6. Thanks.
  7. Thanks everyone.
  8. Great work!
  9. Nice work. Beautiful piece of wood too.
  10. My brother gave me this piece awhile back. I’ve seen this drawing of a cross before. Cindy did the pattern drawing it on the wood for me. Pretty piece of cherry. Semi gloss poly for the finish. The walnut piece, we did the same thing. I’ve had that walnut since about 1992. It came from some rotting worm eaten trees on my sisters property. If you give that wood long enough it will tell you what it wants. Thanks for looking.
  11. They all look great! I think those patterns would definitely sell. So would the finished product.
  12. Very nice work. You always get so much detail in your work. It’s always fun to see what you do next.
  13. It seemed like the blades lasted a little longer. I was using a FD #1
  14. I was looking for some good birch and couldn't find any. All I had found was not very good, to much grain or too many patches. I did find this at Menards. Half a sheet was $25. I got it on sale for $17. It has a better center filler and much better and cleaner surface. I don't know if Lowes or other stores have it. They didn't have it at the lumber yard I went to. The back side is much darker and not as clean but it may do something for some folks. I talked to an old friend and am going to do ten of these for his retired friends, I did him one quite some time ago. It has a perfect clean face to it. Hope this helps others trying to find some wood.
  15. Great job. First place for sure!
  16. That looks great. I’d love to try one like that.
  17. Very nice work!
