Dragonkort Posted May 13, 2020 Report Posted May 13, 2020 well i didnt get any crafting done today... ran into lansing today with spike. lol since its been several months since i last left the house i figured i should proubly go witih him. lol saw my oldest daughter for a few minutes .... any way when we got home spike ordered some scroll saw blades for me, sizes 0, 1. 2, 3, and 5s.... so i can try doing some of the more complex fret cut projects... now that iv learned that most likely the reason so many of my fret work projects tend to break is because i was using the wrong size blades.... now i just have to wait for them to come in and then find a pattern i want to make lol maybe tomarrow i will get a chance to put my sweather together .... iv also started carving on one of the bull dog tooth pick holders....bet it would go faster and look better if i actualy knew what i was doing!!! lol but not knowing what im doing has never stoped me before ! lol im pretty good at winging it with most things lol amazingkevin 1 Quote

Dragonkort Posted May 14, 2020 Author Report Posted May 14, 2020 lol well I don't ever really drum things up ! lol I have to have some kind of a pattern to work from.. right now im atemping to carve one of my bull dog tooth picks... I think im going to put parts of toothpicks in the collar and paint them sliver...iv seen lots of pictures of bull dogs with spikes on there collars. it will be easy enough to do...just drill a small hole for each spike and then insert tooth pick. I haven't decided yet what things i'll start next. i'll take a picture tomarrow of the bull dog in progress and maybe you real woodworkers can give me tips or idea on what I have to do next. other then that I just have to sew my sweater together. layed out all the squares this evening for most of it...just have to lay out the arms and i'll be ready to sew it up. I didn't relize how much iv missed crafting the last 2 years until I was able to start doing it again!! but I cant work on anything for more then half an hour -45 minutes...as it tends to give me one kind of a headace or another...but im not complaining!!! on the contray im thanking God every day and every night that the botox is working to help keep them under control...not sure how id manage to go another few days let alone week, months and years in pain like that again. shudder!! lol but nobody wantsto hear about that!! im just going to enjoy aggravating frustrating and annoying myself half to death lol Quote
