Popular Post Denny Knappen Posted August 16 Popular Post Report Share Posted August 16 Puzzle Black Lab - Cooper. Yes, the dog's name is Cooper. Cut on the Pegas Scroll Saw using Pegas #3 MGT blades. The puzzle is made from 3/4" Poplar and the base is 3/4" Eastern Red Cedar. After a very light sanding with a Mac Mop, dipped in diluted Shellac and after drying, another light sanding. I glued the puzzle pieces together as this will be a shelf sitter. Comments welcome. Dak0ta52, heppnerguy, BadBob and 7 others 10 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
heppnerguy Posted August 16 Report Share Posted August 16 Nicely done. I just can't get into these dog puzzles as they don't turn my on but they sure are popular and yours is very nicely made. I just need to be a little more open minded about things I am not very interested in as I fully understand that many, many people love them a lot. I sort of feel that way about simple wood toys too. I know it is just me. I need to relax about things like this. Keep up your great work Dick heppnerguy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She is the city attorney. heppnerguy 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jerry I hope you did not see my comment as being a put down as it certainly was not what I was trying to say. It's just that there are certain items that do not appeal to me much so I don't bother to spend my time cutting them. I find them amazingly sought after and I guess I push them aside and loose a few sales as a result. I just do not wish to cut them so it is my loss. Again I have to say that your work on this is shows a lot of skills on your part. I love how it came out. I am sorry I made the comment I did because I meant to express that I do not prefer to cut these myself. I also do not care much for simple cut vehicles for kids as I prefer to make one that is more like a model. Kids like them a lot and again, my choice, my loss.

Dick heppnerguy Hey Dick, in no way was my comment an insult. Your comment on Denny's dog puzzle was not seen as a put down. I commented on your intarsia bear that I cannot get into intarsia. Again, it's different strokes for different folks. Wouldn't this be a boring world if we all wanted to do the same thing. We were all made to do different things. Please accept my apology if I insulted you because I certainly did not mean to. I'm not that type of person. If you got to know me, you would think I'm a pretty nice guy. At least that would be my hope. Jerry Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
