I cut this last weekend. Pattern design by me using GIMP2. Pegas 2/0 spiral blades on 1/8" Baltic Birch ply.

Howdy all.... Wasn't excited about showing this, but another Good Buddy thot it was worth showing. So here it is after the Cuting, Shaping, Fine sanding, and Painting. Think I will say this project was not among my favorite to do with the time. Took to long. If you have any suggestions for possible future ventures .. Please jot them down here. Thanks for Looking Danny :+}

Still early days but quite pleased with how these have turned out. All made from reclaimed pallet wood.

This is a Sue Mey pattern, I cut 5 of them and have a request for 3 more. Mike

Awhile back my aunt asked me if I could an intarsia of a Charley Russell for my uncle's birthday. Finally finished my take on Russell's "Buckaroos".

Finally finished the coat rack. A lot of firsts for me on this one. First time steam bending, first time turning spindles, first time drawing up plans for a customer, first time learning what an umbrella holder is...... I think it turned out well. Hope the customer likes it as well as I do. All solid Russian Olive, finished with Danish Oil with a couple of coats of poly on top. The braces for the coat hooks were scrolled.

I'm finally back up and running with a new saw and rebuilt shop. Here's something I was wanting to try. It's the Rebel logo from a certain star war movie cut out of the platter from a computer hard drive. Be careful if you attempt this some platters are made of glass coated with a micron thin layer of metal. Most are plated aluminum though.

i scrolled the bottoms of the donation boxes in 3/4" teak and kept the cut outs as pay .he didn't tell me there was no pay as its for his temple ,he's from Thailand but the temple is here .I cut 40 pieces.now tonight he tells me he has 40 to 50 more boxes to cut so that's 40 x 4 or 50 x 4 bottom pieces to cut.in mahogany this time.I'll do something with the scrap i hope.he's very very meticulous and was well pleased with my work for him.and then the big nosey the dragon i made for my doctors secretary ,She put stones as eyes on him .nice touch.and then there's the steve good cross i did in termite infested wood ,but they moved out .The wood was to damaged so i cut the bad parts out and salvaged a Jesus plaque out of it.and then the jppainted cross i droped and it shatterd into 5 pieces on one side of the cross ,So that's another fix and save going on.not sure if i showed olga before.

Totally 'AWESOME' !! Very beautiful intarsia Tim and love the woods.

Cut this piece today. It's 16-1/2" long made 3/4" pine no finish that's the way they wanted it.

Those are a super cool pattern and cutting.

Yep that's him

Those both came out nicely. Thanks for sharing them with us. DW

Really really well done! Those will go fast!

Thanks everybody. Gordster, I drilled a hole through the head

Lol thanks Fab yea I like to keep my posts interesting I wanna see how many think eww mature and not look lol

Hi Frank: I have to think twice before opening your posts You say one thing and something totally different shows up So, I had to open this one and see you're version of a mature Elvis Lo and behold - it's a mature ELvis Well done.. Thank you, thank you very much!!! Fab4

That is why I said the Hawk is very well made saw... it is built for commercial use.. unlike the DeWalt... I got tired of replacing the DeWalts under warranty and took one apart myself and replaced the bearings / sleeves and added my own high quality grease.. I can get about 2 years out of it now before needing the front exposed section rebuilt again.. I've thought about looking into modifying it on this next rebuilt that it desperately needs again.. and looking into replacing those lousy open bearings with some sort of sealed bearings.. that would help a lot especially on the front portion of the saw where the sawdust falls right down onto the top of the needle bearings in the lower rocker assembly... guess you do get what you pay for.. certainly not designed to run 8 hours a day.. I'd like to take a excalibur saw apart or even the new Seyco saw ( basically a modified excalibur ) and see what they use for bearings...as they are the same basic design as a DeWalt as far as the arms and internal parts are very similar.. Probably why excalibur built that little dust collection deal on the bottom of the table.. to help keep dust out of those bearings.. suppose I could build something similar on my DeWalt. I intend to purchase another high end saw.. and intend to take a serious look into the newer Hawks.. with the adjustable lower arm..

Thanks again all. Yeah, i make up 2 same size "wooden canvases" and stain one with a light stain and one with a darker stain which makes a nice contrast and usually flip the bottom one 90 degrees. Cant really see it on the photos i posted. This is a Wales flag i did to show what i mean. Didnt flip this 90 degrees though as i liked how the grain went with the dragon.

Man O Man.Just Down Right Super Cool.Ride em Cowboy. Kickin up Dust!That is Awesome!!! I'm sure it is one gift that will be Cherished forever.

Now they are Super Cool.The Eagle is my Favorite.Awesome job with such hard wood,

You did a very impressive job. Your Uncle will love it. Marg

They look great. You did a marvelous job, well done. Marg

That is certainly one awesome coat rack. You did a fantastic job, one to be proud of. Marg

They all look super, do you ever put a backer on them? Might help all the great detail stand out. Love the burning you have done on them. Thanks for sharing them with us. jim penquin

Wow, beautiful work Kris!

Super job Tim. Definitely a one of a kind.

Outstanding work Tim!

i can smell the salt in the air it looks so good.Your a wiz at patterning i see again! Keep your awesome work coming .

Beautiful portrait Kris and fine cutting.

Great pattern and cutting.Well planned once again as the grain in wood matches the sky.

From reclaimed pallet wood!! Well done Gav and cutting is terrific.

Awesome job! I would definitely have a hard time giving it up!

Super pattern and cutting Chris.

Wow. Great work!

Very nice work !

If all you will be happy with is a top feed then pass on this. If you want to top feed only you need find a G4 or newer model.

Those are awesome! The knot at the top left of the eagle/phoenix one even looks like an eye. The burning really adds to the pieces. Well done. I love the Banksy one too. Rob

very impressive,I love it

Beautiful work you've done there Jeff! Thank you for letting us see, Bob

Hello Gav, Your scrolling and finishing looks real nice! It's great when you can put pallet wood to good use like you have! Thank you for the photo's Bob

The yoga girls here at the warehouse just had someone decorate the insides of their place with rustic looking pallet wood.your work on their wall would be a plus for them.Great job!Keep your work coming!

Love it. Roly

Very nice. Those all came out great. I have done a little with pallet wood and ended up with a small hand held metal detector to help me locate and nails, broken off staples etc. Thanks for sharing these with us. DW

That really turned out nice. Love that you put it on that board. Great job.

Those are pretty darn neat!

Beautiful. Great Job!
