  2. Not a problem. It is actually a Steve Good pattern that I modified. If you send me the name I can do If you want with out name just let me know. Don
  3. I was doing key tags for my grandson's baseball team and got to thinking that this is the best pattern program out there. I probably have done a couple hundred for teachers, teams and friends. The Canada one below is reduced to about 3/8 inch high. Many of the more recent scrollers may not know of this program, It is way down nearly at the bottom of the blog. https://scrollsawworkshop.blogspot.com/ There is an online maker that I think will work for Mac's https://stevedgood.com/stencil/ I get more thanks for this as a little gift. Many people have never got anything with their names on anything.
  4. This is not my picture as I can't find the one I did for my nephew. All sorts of stuff in the gift basket but this is the one that got most attention. If you want to give me the name and year I will send you the pattern. I think anything with the name on it is a good gift.
  5. This is a gift for a friend who is retiring. The box is a Steve Good design and the top comes from one of Steve's candle holders. My friend likes hummingbirds Bottom is flocked. ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Design issue. I made a big faux pas. I cut the bottom and then the walnut backer. It did not cover all the cutouts. I then had to alter the pattern and re cut. I should know better to cut the top before the bottom and then I would have seen the error and adjusted the size of the bottom. Funny thing is my wife like version 2 better. I will cut a new bottom when I get more 6/4 maple.
  6. If you join Facebook group Called Just Intarsia there are two funky owls in the files section. They might be real close fo the last one. Ps great group if you are into intarsia
  7. You should be able to open more than one page at a time in 1.3.2. I use import and select pages wanted see below. Once imported you can delete and pages by selecting the page tool in bottom left. for each page select the image and change the stroke to red. (right click on red in bottom left and select set stroke. You can then set the width width of stoke by the number under that. Depends on printer but one PX works fine for me
  8. Should be able to open and print with any PDF viewer. I use either adobe reader. Just need free version at http:// https://get.adobe.com/reader/ I currently use FoxIt Reader free. Don't ahve link but just google. FOXIT PDF Make sure you get free version. You should be able to open and when you print (ctrl p) select SCALE and None and you should be okay.
  9. Had to look up and it is $20 in Ontario for the South African version. Snoop Dog version not available due the tariff wars. Great idea on the box and well done.
  10. Here is my attempt. the PDF has 2 versions. Just let me know if you want any changes to font placement etc. Also, I have not printed out to double check for any floaters so please check. hb jack.pdf
  11. Really cool. Have too look that one up.
  12. I agree with having non reverse teeth blades. I use FD Polar #5 Blades or Pegas #6 super skip. I find that using a lower number blade works better especially in tight turns. Just take it slow. When doing hardwood I wrap in box tap as it seems to keep the blade cooler or gives lubrication. What you have done so far is really nice,
  13. Here is one version. If you want any changes let me know. I tried to check for rivers but I am on the way out so I did not print and double check. drawing.pdf
  14. The Dust hood came from Workshopsupply. Cheap about $13. I also added a bast gate so I can use the dust collection with my Flatmaster. I think Busy Bee carries the same. If you watch the video I added some bird netting to prevent small pieces disappearing when you sand your fingers.
  15. Here is a video of my sanding station. https://youtu.be/43HcrhpynsI?si=_GJYxDc1OBh09j8e In addition to the standing station I also use a Dremel with the flex shaft plus a Mac Mop for final finishing. In the picture the Mac Mop is in front of the sanding station that usually has a wonder wheel on the right end but this picture I have a sanding mop,
