Popular Post Rockytime Posted March 10, 2019 Popular Post Report Posted March 10, 2019 A common occurrence with some of us old folks. This pattern by Blaughn in the pattern library was posted here by someone else. I really liked the pattern and tried cutting it from the bottom of a serving tray which I think is 1/2" Poplar. I lost a bridge at the top which I caught and could have glued. The "V" was the flatulence part. Have no idea what was going on there. I re-cut the pattern from 3/4" hardwood. Don't know what kind. In the upper right I ran into a nasty knot in back of the material I had not planned on. I rarely post what I have cut but I'm bored today. Oh well. spotsdad, Charlie E, amazingkevin and 12 others 15 Quote
GPscroller Posted March 11, 2019 Report Posted March 11, 2019 Turned out really well Les. At one time or another I am sure the same thing has happened to us all, part of the "fun". lol Jeff Rockytime 1 Quote

Charlie E Posted March 11, 2019 Report Posted March 11, 2019 Nice job. Cool font on Redeemer. There was recently a flatulence occurrence in my shop that registered a 4.5 on the rectum scale! RabidAlien, GPscroller and Rockytime 1 2 Quote
RabidAlien Posted March 11, 2019 Report Posted March 11, 2019 Oh, if I had a dollar for every " was I thinking?!?" moment....I'd have a lot of dollars. Love the "Jenius at Work" one, as well! Rockytime 1 Quote
meflick Posted March 11, 2019 Report Posted March 11, 2019 I like them both. Really like the Redemeer one. You need to get bored more and share more of your work. Rockytime 1 Quote

Fab4 Posted March 11, 2019 Report Posted March 11, 2019 Hi Les: Just an observation here, but if the wood grain would be going the other way I think these pieces may have survived I know sometimes we don't have much choice, Just a thought Fab4 Quote
amazingkevin Posted March 11, 2019 Report Posted March 11, 2019 If a mistake happens sometimes i can modifie the other letters a little to make it blend in with the rest!!! Great job cutting you did, Rocky Quote

Rob Posted March 12, 2019 Report Posted March 12, 2019 Such beautiful sharp cutting Les, it would be a shame to waste it. Could you somehow save the word Redeemer and use it again somehow? You've got nothing to lose. Rob Quote
heppnerguy Posted March 13, 2019 Report Posted March 13, 2019 I always like to remember that scrolling is an ever learning process. Just about the time you think you have everything figured out, something happens to make you understand you don't. I guess that is the kind of lesson that God shows us now and then when we are trying to do everything on our own and are ignoring Him. The plaque turned our really beautiful. I still have that one on my to do list Dick heppnerguy Quote
wombatie Posted March 13, 2019 Report Posted March 13, 2019 It gives you extra practice when you have to cut something twice even though you weren't going to. It's happened to all of us. Looked good in the end, well done. Marg Quote
