Popular Post bowers25 Posted December 24, 2017 Popular Post Report Posted December 24, 2017 Built this for a good friend, for his grandson. Had a few places that should be better, however for my first go around I was pleased. I can tell ya, it was very relaxing.....nothing to think about except the saw and the wood.....one of my son's came up behind me (I did not notice him) a made a comment on the name.......scared the sh&% out of me. Can't want to get back on the saw.......Thinking about doing a cross for my beautiful bride. Be Safe & Merry Christmas! Lucky2, Scrolling Steve, frankorona and 11 others 12 2 Quote

Rob Posted December 24, 2017 Report Posted December 24, 2017 Very nice, I like the font. Lettering is one of the hardest things to scroll and you did a great job. Rob Quote
lawson56 Posted December 24, 2017 Report Posted December 24, 2017 First cutting?Down Right Fantastic!! Quote
WayneG Posted December 25, 2017 Report Posted December 25, 2017 (edited) Well done and yes there is something to be said about sitting down standing at the saw concentrating on nothing but that. It's why I love it! I had to reposition my new saw due it being a 30", the good thing is that I no longerhave my back to the garage door which is most often open. I can now see the door in my peripheral vision. Edited December 25, 2017 by WayneG Quote

wombatie Posted December 25, 2017 Report Posted December 25, 2017 Congratulations a marvelous first piece. You are certainly on your way. My family know better than to stand behind me and speak, I have threatened them with death. Marg Quote

Marg Nice!, the garage door to the house is a nice barrier from the son and partner in my case and have not resorted to death threats just yet... wombatie 1 Quote

meflick Posted December 25, 2017 Report Posted December 25, 2017 Nice work and sure to be well received. I have my back to the door as well, tried to put up a mirror to see with but it keeps falling down. Need to find a way to get it hooked up. Quote
Dave Monk Posted December 25, 2017 Report Posted December 25, 2017 Wow............super job for your first project. Won't be long and you will be addicted like many of us here. Quote

Wayne said it all. You get into a zone and the next you know, it's dinner time (and you have missed lunch). Quote
