Just because...

[Foxfold]

I didn't have a good day at the saw today. I tried cutting something way beyond my capabilities. I tried 4 times to no avail.

So tonight I cut something small and simple just because I needed to cheer myself up.

Looks good!

 

Keep pushing your limits.  Just because you didn't get it this time doesn't mean you won't get it next week!  Remember, it was a #KnownFact that a human being could not run a mile in under 4 minutes until Sir Roger Bannister blew that away.  Hitler KNEW the Aryans were superior to all others until Jesse Owens quietly burst that little bubble in the '36 Olympics.  Keep at it, and soon your "beyond my limits" will be your "warmup".

What you couldn't get right today you will probably get right tomorrow, we have all had days like that, we just take a deep breath have a break and off we go again.  I love this piece that you did, I always think of sitting in a park quietly and watching the birds.    Fabulous work Brenda.

I like this piece a lot.  Looks like swallows to me.    I used to have a woodburning stove in my shop, when I had a large shop.  I called it the "Eraser"; it erased all of my errors!

It was when I tried to cut with thicker wood

Brenda, I think we all have those days. I know I do. Some days you wouldn't want to be standing next to my saw as the language is enough to make a sailor blush. Others it all just seems to do what I want and I sail along.
