Popular Post jerry walters Posted Thursday at 11:35 PM Popular Post Report Posted Thursday at 11:35 PM (edited) Watching a video by Tyler @artisanpirate where he made a candle holder I had to try it. Many time he closes his video with "If I can do it, you can do it". So I gave it a try. Came out pretty good, but the leaves are fragile. Broke two of them, one when gluing it, the other when staining. Fortunately you can't see where I repaired the breaks. Made this with pine, stained with Minwax gunstock. The second is a small clock with shelves from a pattern book I had by Diana Thompson, Compound Scroll Saw Creations. All the clock patterns call for small clock inserts which I could not find anywhere, so using inkscape I increased the size of the pattern to accept the 1 7/16-inch clock inserts. This was made with poplar and stained Minwax cherry. I'm pleased with both. Jerry Edited Friday at 01:32 PM by jerry walters Dave Monk, flarud, preprius and 10 others 13 Quote

The guest was a slow-talking country gentleman from Arkansas who sold jewelry made with Quail droppings. I called Johnny "MR. Carson" because he was raised to address any man senior to him with "Mr.", a sign of respect. So, like it or not, you are a tiny bit older than me. Just showing respect! barb.j.enders and jerry walters 2 Quote
