heppnerguy Posted February 28, 2017 Report Share Posted February 28, 2017 My wife and I do respite care for foster kids and I try to find out what interests they have and try to make something for them to take with them when they leave. Sometimes it might be only their name cut into wood. The person we have with us now is a skate boarder so i asked in a post to have help finding a skateboard pattern but I was unable to find one that I was hoping for, even though several people responded with some helpful links. i thank everyone for their help in searching for the pattern and just know I really appreciated every one that did post a link for me. I ended up making my own pattern and cut it last night and just finished it.

jerry1939 Posted March 1, 2017 Report Share Posted March 1, 2017 Great job Dick. How often in the lives of us old geezers have we found out that sometimes it's easier and better just to tackle a task by ourselves. Personally, I have lost count. jerry Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rob Posted March 1, 2017 Report Share Posted March 1, 2017 I don't know which is better, the pattern or the cutting? I really like that. Please add the pattern to the library if you would be so kind. I'd love to cut that sometime. Rob Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
