I think that not rushing is important to keep in mind. Given that I will not have another chance to go clear across country for a while, this is too precious to mess up! Thank you for reminding me...

Yeah, I agree, too wet. Just wanted to try to get something from it for my relatives. They said it will probably be the last time up there. It is about a mile hike into the woods and they are...

Great grandparents place. There are jillions of them out there so just took part of one so the folks could have something from the old place which is overgrown and nothing but the foundation left in...

The microwave idea sounds good. I'll take it easy with it and just do it a couple of times to start. I don't know how much pith it has. Thank you for the advice.

Oh, I see it now. You have that Holly so thin that it sort of looks like inlay. The best of all worlds. Now I am encouraged to brave the winds (really windy here) and go out to the shop to see...

Stew, THANK YOU for showing me the horse; how beautiful it is! You know, I do have some wood left over from an intarsia project that I could use for the eyes. I really like how yours look. The...

Thanks, Stew. I used 6/4 maple for the legs and body as well and have some available to use for this. I'm sure I am making this harder than it needs to be but it has stumped me for a couple of...

Can you help me find an better...
