Popular Post preprius Posted November 24, 2022 Popular Post Report Share Posted November 24, 2022 I was playing around (fun) and decided to take a 2x2 and try to make a christmas decorations. Here are my failed (thud) experiments. i set the saw at angle 10 deg. Cut a tiny circle of 1/8 inch diameter about 1 inch from the end. Then cut another circle at 1/2 in diameter over the 1/8 circle. My attempt failed to have perfect stacked cones. But I can make a christmas tree. Some other experiments... 3d cowboy boot.. well the center looks more like a snow boot. I used the sides from the snow boot and shaped them for left and right thin boots. Cones...Notice the 2 cones get cut from alternate sides to save wood. I took the solid cones and painted it like a teepee, and silver paint for a bell. Then got my boots stained. And this was a tiny hat made from BB ply. I tried to belt sand the front and back to get that dip. Have a great thanksgiving. Me.

Jim McDonald Posted November 25, 2022 Report Share Posted November 25, 2022 (edited) Edison had many near misses before the light bulb worked. You tried making compound patterns and probably learned a lot in the process. Keep plugging along.
