I think the Indian-Wolf pattern came from Steves Blog.

Actually the background of the underwater fish scene is the reflective shinny patterened stick on paper purchased at Walmart.  Love the effects it has.

Wow! Russ you have it all.  Maybe someday I will luck out and win a lottery and then I shall have the work shop of my dreams, but till then I am very happy with what I have. 

Charlie you have a good point there.  I built my cabinets to house my sterio equipment and try to keep the doors closed at all times, but dust still gets in, so thanks to the air compressor a couple times a week it keeps on workin.

I just LOVE this website.  Later....  :+}

Dan....Guess what u have is wat I wud LOVE to have, but just cannot come up with the big bucks.  Have 3 scroolsaws of which 2 have kind of bit the dust and only use my 16inch Hitachi.  Been a good saw except for the blower which give up within 6 months!  Anyway the cheap fish tank blower really works GREAT. 

Hey Rog....Now your workshop sounds Super Great.  You sound like my kind of person.  My shop is only a lil 12x14 with 8 foot ceilings (rafters) and have wall to wall either work tables, shelfs or cabinets (which are all full to the brim)  Only one door in n out, but the shop is connected to my patio's, so convinient to bring some of my work outside.  Luv ur Beer-Thirty with friends.
I also am retired.  Happily....:+}  Just turned the Medicare age, so I see how the different insurances works out.  Thanks for replying....  Danny  :+}

Hey David....Seriously there are many different objects to store your blades in, but I have really came to the conclusion that the clear and already marked baggies that Mike sends them in is just right if you have a lil box to put them all in.  Works for me.  Back to work....  :+}

Hey Ya'lls....  If you haven't applied a fish tank blower instead of the one that comes with the scroolsaw your missing the beauty of having a clean slate to work on.  The container I use that is secured to the table legs mostly catches any flying objects.  I also removed the sides of my scrollsaw and this makes for the shop vac. access to suck up any and all dust etc.  I also have set my scrollsaw facing a window with a osilating (sp) fan blowing any and all dust towards it.  And along with another fan to my right I am fairly cool with all the 100 degree temps. lately.  And in conclusion with a stereo (sp) system in my shop (country mostly) and 2 windows to view all the beautiful birds that I feed (oh yea that window I mentioned is OPEN) I am mostly ALWAYS happy.  Your turn guys....  :+}

« on: August 04, 2010, 07:37:35 pm »

Hey guys....I am using Steve's pattern of a butterfly on his blog.  Have sized two butterflies to fit on the only half inch wood I can buy (oak) and the length will be 12 inches.  I really like the way I have them spaced, but I think a few flowers would look really good.  Mostly the top of a flower.  I want to cut all out where they will be a quarter inch above the wood depth.  And like Steve's pattern with a backer and spacer for the butterfly patterns and roses.
Anyway I hope you all understand all the giberish.  Thanks in Advance
