WigWag Workshop Posted November 22, 2010 Report Share Posted November 22, 2010 Good Day Folks! What a difference, some practice will do. I have been learning a lot thanks to the kind folks here. When I first got my saw, I have never did any kind of woodworking. I am having a lot of fun learning, and experimenting. As you can see from the 2 pictures below, the difference between my first attempt, and several projects later. I have also been experimenting with different ways of finishing my projects. The key is, I am having a lot of fun, and I am finding this hobby very relaxing. Steven Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oges Posted November 23, 2010 Report Share Posted November 23, 2010 Great improvement there Steven, well done I cant even remember what my first project was, nor where it would be now, but it would be good to redo it to see how I have improved just like you did.

wombatie Posted November 23, 2010 Report Share Posted November 23, 2010 I remember my first piece. It was a cat with a ball and I but a magnet on the back and it was great for a short while. But then one sad day the ball fell off. The whole family laughed . Now the cat sit near me in shed to remind me. Oh and the second and third things I made, make good fire wood. So well done Steven, you are coming along in leaps and bounds. Marg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WigWag Workshop Posted November 24, 2010 Author Report Share Posted November 24, 2010 Thanks all for the kind words. I am seeing progress in my works, I have been trying different techniques, with every project. I have dated all my projects so far, as well as taken pictures. I can't express in words, how much fun, and relaxing this hobby is. Steven Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
malc Posted November 25, 2010 Report Share Posted November 25, 2010 Funny how it just seems to come right, I would be scared to look at my first attempt, well done. Malc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
