Computer questions / Having a problem.

« on: January 11, 2011, 02:39:32 pm »

Sometimes when I view a members thread in another forum all I see is a black box where a picture should be showing.  These pics are not being uploaded they are typically hosted on photo bucket etc.

This is happening on several other forums where pictures are hosted outside the forum.  Any suggestions?

I'm using win xp pro plenty of ram and it is not happening everywhere.  So it is not my video card.

Pattern Requests. / Unable to find a frame pattern.

« on: December 23, 2010, 10:49:02 am »

I'm pretty sure I saw on Steve's site some picture frame patterns with fretwork cutouts in the frame.  I thought i remembered seeing some with leaves and twigs or vines. 

Can any of you point me in the right direction?

Thanks.

Brag Forum / Some more finished puzzles.

« on: November 26, 2010, 06:24:00 pm »

Edited to say this show has come and gone...

Well tomorrow 11/27/2010 is the biggest show of the year for me.
160 vendors filling two high school gyms.
I have 100 puzzles, book marks, ornaments, key chains, portraits, fretwork, and some other items.  I hope I have the variety they are looking for.

I've got everything packed and in the truck ready to go.

The wizard is from one of the puzzle books, the triangle is one from a dear friend I've had on hand for years--- Jayp thanks.  This is the first time I've painted it.  I prefer it painted now.  The Noel is from steve's site thank you Steve.

I had just a couple of touch up spots that I did not see until I took the pics.  isn't that always the way it goes?

Enjoyed creating this one.  Painted with acrylics.  Used  #7 blade so the wood could swell from the paint if need be.  Hope you enjoy it.

General Scroll Saw Talk / EX 21 question..

« on: November 02, 2010, 09:37:46 am »

RE the ex 21 do you notice  much back and forth movement of the blade, from front to rear when sawing.  As if the blade is moving in a elipse?  I'm thinking of upgradng and if it has the same problem my 10 year old 788 is developing I'll just get  a new 788.

Thanks for any feedback.

General Scroll Saw Talk / Different type of question..Off Topic a bit.

« on: September 29, 2010, 11:54:05 am »

I've noticed lately more and more little icons showing up under peoples names.  where is the legend for what they mean?

I see a guy walking, I know on other forums it is some sort of messenger, the smilie face I think is Yahoo Im, I just found out recently the globe is for their website.  What are some of the others that are there and their meaning and what others might suddenly appear?

Ask Steve a question. / Oval key chain question.

« on: September 16, 2010, 11:19:18 am »

Steve can you show me how to turn the letters in this keychain so they run the length of the oval from the key hole to the end.  I have had 2 customers ask me to turn the letters 90 degrees.  They use them for their kids back packs.  I can't figure out how to do it.

Thanks for any help.

connor is one of the names.

Brag Forum / Cut this one Friday sold it On Saturday..

« on: September 06, 2010, 11:09:26 am »

Saw this pattern lying on the pile of to do stuff on Friday morning & thunk to myself.  I really like this.  S I cut it out and finished it.  Placed it on the shelf in my booth for Sat mkt and another vendor was walking by and stopped for a chit chat and saw it and purchased it on the spot before the mkt even opened...

With my fat fingers it was a bit tricky to cut...

Pattern Requests. / Anyone know where I may have gotten this pattern

« on: September 04, 2010, 07:24:42 pm »

I've made 3 of these in the past, and sold my final one today at Saturday Mkt.  The catch is he wants two of them.  He has already pre- aid me for the 2nd one and I have to ship it to him in Georgia.  I came home and can't find my pattern.

I've gone through all the books I have and am unable to locate the original pattern.  Any help would be appreciated.
