Popular Post jerry walters Posted April 17 Popular Post Report Posted April 17 (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 April 18 by jerry walters Hawk, Dave Monk, ScrollerGuy and 12 others 15 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
