Thanks for the Pattern Blights69 I got it cut out in time for the wedding. Decided on a piece of cherry I had laying around. Just need to sand and finish.

93 Mustang Cobra, 40 Ford Coupe, and a 66 Chevelle. Patterns by Me 67 Chevelle. Pattern by Sam Custodio. Mahogany Frame.

I don't typically tell what I sell but just thought some might find what I'm selling interesting. This is today's orders.. I won't bore you all with every days orders.. LOL but anyway these orders came in today.. and I'm mailing them out in the morning other than the fishing clock.. I'm still making that one.. The plane ornament isn't today's order.. but one that I'm mailing out tomorrow.. Kind of a slower day today.. but maybe a better day tomorrow.. NOTE: It pays to keep Christmas ornaments on the site year round.. since I've just sold these two in the last few days..

As long as the wife is away for a few days, I thought I would just go make her something more to add to the basket, I cut for her a couple of days ago, to give her for Mother's Day. I only had some BB Ply to use so that is what she gets this time. This is a pattern from the newest Scroll saw woodworking and crafts magazine. She saw it and liked it and even said she wanted me to make her one, some day. So that day has come. Dick heppnerguy

Hi guys and gals. Well I gave this a shot. It's one of Steve Goods patterns. I was able to cut two at a time so I can keep one and give the other one away. They are a little tough to put together without getting any glue squeezing out. I still have to other one to put together yet. I have to see if I can get the pattern that Dick did. I like that one to. This is almost 3 inches tall and 10 inches wide, cut with # 3/0 reverse.

English Bulldog cut in 9mm ply with #5 Pegas Modified finished with a frame saved from landfill pattern by me also.

I keep re-doing this piece....this time I sanded down the paint, added a bit of stain, then shellac. I mounted it on an old reclaimed piece of wood that I added some white gel stain to brighten it up. Maybe tomorrow I'll change it all....or toss it!!! Lew

I had found a few places to sell my stuff on consignment. one that is about 40mls away sold one last week (prince) so we went to get the cash. in the time it took us to drive to the bookstore they sold a second (petty). it turns out that the woman that got tom is a "comic com" promoter. anyway she is setting up the first "Paducah Galaxy Of Heroes Con" and is giving me a table free of charge. it inspired me, so this is my work for the day. i am so excited!!!

Project done for a customer, this rack can hold up to 6 fishing rods in vertical position. Wall decor will be placed over the top part of the rack. after his order, he noticed he had 3 more fishing rods with no rack and order a small one for them.

Mrs. Iggy saw an ad on Facebook of someone selling a bunch of shelving, displays and racks from a business. I arranged to go take a look this morning and snatched up 3 of these stacking metal basket systems. They're on wheels and they came with dividers. Absolutely perfect for my stockpile of puzzles. I was able to get rid of 12 boxes full of puzzles that were not easy to organize or search through when I needed specific ones. As soon as my shed is inspected by the town tomorrow I'll be able to clear out the garage of lawn and garden and beach stuff and re-arrange my puzzle area. I can't wait. Now I need to cut more puzzles to fill up the baskets. LOL

An elementary school teacher from a nearby town contacted our club to ask us to give a demonstration of things to make/do with wood working tools. We spent two hours there with the 24 children ranging in ages from four to eleven. We brought ,with us, toys that were finished but needed wheels installed. Those that wanted to , painted them (cars and critters) and installed the wheels. Five guys from our club attended and we had the kids nailing into boards, (they loved that) nailing together small bird houses and installing the wheels. I also brought thirty 3-d cut horses and I taped them back together after cutting so the kids could take the pieces apart and reveal the horse inside. It is good we had five of us there. Four would also have worked but no less. There were three teachers there to help, also. With all that adult supervision the children were very well behaved. (Of course, a lot more fun than arithmetic!)

Be careful what you ask for Marg as he she over here means a completely different thing from the sign you want You may find the man you have is not the man you thought with wishes like that

I am know these Very well.My Dad is a Retired Minister.I am from Mingo Co, W,Va. Long story how I ended up in Tn, Anyway a woman came by my booth last Sat, a fellow scroller,and she told me that she make's these little silly country phrase,s and sells them like hotcakes.So I remembered the 10 Comm, of my youth,Even found them on line,Just like I remember hearin them up in Mt.of Mingo W,Va.Please enjoy.

Had a request from a local charity called Lancing Lions to make a box to go in their shop to collect food for the people of our community that are struggling thought it will need a sign of some sort so came up with this for it .

WOW, Dick that is a beauty. You did an awesome job.

What a beautiful piece!! She will absolutely love it!! Great job!!!!

WOW that looks great!

Wow Dick, another beautiful piece you have hand crafted for your lovely wife. She will be thrilled with them both. Glad someday came early. Looks like you will be racking in the extra brownie points this month! Thanks for sharing.

Nice work Frank.. Was this one of your recently created patterns as well? Thanks for sharing.

Looks real good to me.

Nicely done. I like how you did the wheels.

Thanks everyone. I'm getting the hang of it. New to picking blades, speed and types of wood to use. Only been doing this a few months so lots to learn and I definitely caught the bug!

very nice job, don't toss it.

Yes. You cut around the subject with your table set at an angle. The degree of the angle is determined by the thickness of the wood and the size of the blade. If the wood is say, one inch thick, a good “relief” cut will allow the perimeter of the subject to protrude about a half inch from the board when pushed through from the back. Sometimes it’s nice to let the grain show through the entire piece, other times it’s cool to contrast it with stains, or paint.

Down Right Cool!!

To You and Your club Outstanding job!!!!

Great job Jim and so special to get the kids involved too to fire up their creative imagination is worth so much more than anything else

Quality items across the board Thanks for showing us

Very nice. Well done. Marg

Really happy to hear about the progress for both you and Mary Ann. It probably seems really slow at this point but hopefully it won't be long and you can look back on all this and think it went pretty fast, after all Dick heppnerguy

A few things here. You said the letter will be black and you are mounting to oak. Are you wanting the oak a natural color or will it too be black. I have done this before so I speak from experience when I say this. If you are leaving the oak natural and just painting the letters black, I would paint the letter with the back side flat on some cardboard so no paint gets on the back. I would then use Titebond III woodworkers glue to adhere them to the oak. What I like to do is lay out the letters on the backboard before gluing. When I have then aligned properly I make witness marks on both the letters and the backboard. Just small enough so you can see them. I usually put on bottom and one side. Now when you take them off and go to glue them you align the witness marks up as you lay the finished letters down in place. You now do not get squeeze out of glue or smears of glue all over the place. I use a real sponge when applying glue for things like this. I do this because it leaves small air pockets for excess glue to seep into and prevent squeeze out After the letters are dry and glue is set I would spray the entire piece letters and backboard with a marine spar varnish. Many brands out there. I would have painted the letters in flat black and let the varnish add any gloss that you choose. As I said i done this and it works well and if not in direct rain and bad weather it should last for a long time and if need be it can easily be touched up. This is my thoughts and my tricks when it comes to this. Good luck.

Great job you may want to cut a few more they are going to go down down just fine n dandy

Why the need for water based? I read South Africa was in the worst of droughts in 100 years and a solvent based primer would eliminate the need to use water to clean-up. Anyway I use tinted shellac. It seal and primes. Dries in about 20 minutes. It does require and very light sanding. This game was part pw and part mdf.
