I did laundry, yard work, cleaned my shop AND rigged a drill to use the sanding mop Steve showed us.

My Birthday is June 27th.  I ain't telling the year.
Suffice it to say, I am OLDER THAN DIRT.
But cute (I think...but of course the eyesight ain't too good)

Thanks..It is surprising how dirty dishes in the sink don't bother me a bit when I have a scroll saw project going.

Ask Steve a question. / Using Polymer Clay

« on: May 13, 2010, 09:38:04 am »

Unless you are using an oven dedicated to clay, the item you are baking should be incased. The fumes from the clay can build up on the walls of the oven and not be so good on your wife's cherry pie.
To incase an item just buy the cheap tinfoil baking pans, set your piece in one, turn the other upside down on top, then clamp the two together with metal clips.

Ask Steve a question. / creating patterns

« on: May 07, 2010, 10:48:30 am »

I am/was an artist and lost most of the use of my right hand from stroke. So my question is:
Is there a video, tutorial or class out there that will teach how to create my own scroll saw patterns on the computer?  I use Paint Shop Pro 12.  Thanks for being there

I tried a couple of times to get this posted.     So if it comes across more than once I do apologize.
this is a rooster I created to add to my wooden puzzle collection.

Ask Steve a question. / Re: hinges

« on: May 04, 2010, 10:21:41 am »

checked all your suggestions,  Thanks.  I must have gotten poor hinges because the holes are not counter sunk for the screws. The hinges I have will only work one way.   So assuming I am using cheap/wrong hinges, is there a better place to buy hinges than my local craft store?

I am making small boxes but when I install the hinges, (for 1/4 inch wood) the heads of the screws bump together and hold the lid open. what am I doing wrong?
