Lucky2 Posted December 19, 2016 Report Posted December 19, 2016 Kevin, I'm a bit disappointed in you with this posting, I never thought that you would give out sub-par work. If the piece you dropped and broke was supposed to be a piece he ordered, then you owe it to him to cut another one. Giving it to him for free doesn't wash in my book, he obviously wanted it to give to someone or have it to show. I doubt that he wants something that isn't just so, especially if its for showing other people. Plus, don't forget, it will carry your name, do you want people to think that it is the best you can do? I'm pleased as punch that you're getting the extra work, but, do you think people will keep buying if your work is sub-par? If you can't or don't want to cut him another one, don't give him the sub-par one. That's not what he wanted, and he'll probably just discard it if the mistakes are noticeable. Stop and think for a moment. If it was you, would you want a marriage plaque that was sub-par? Something that you want to display with pride, I know I wouldn't. You can do better, slow down and take your time and do things right. Yes I know you have issues, but that's no reason to put out sub-par work. OK I'm sorry, I'll get off of my high horse, it's just that you made me a bit cross with what you posted. I know you can do better, and I think that you do also. And here's something to keep in mind, customers won't return for sub-par work.. Len tomsteve 1 Quote

DWSUDEKUM Posted December 21, 2016 Report Posted December 21, 2016 Those all look good Kevin. As for the plaque if you make it out of 3mm ply / 1/4 BB then the dropping and exploding thing will be in the past. Thanks for sharing these with us. DW Quote
