Popular Post Smallpatch Posted November 5, 2018 Popular Post Report Posted November 5, 2018 I have been showing my progress on scroll saw forum but couldn't wait till this was finished to post over here on the new carving forum.. Thanks John Morris The names and the carving was maple and the back ground board Baltic Birch and the trim was?. After this picture was taken I have applied 100% tung oil on the carving then dried for a few days then started applying a clear finish, but not through yet.The picture of the carving is from Pinterest. The names came off Microsoft 10 from Word Pad which microsoft has been putting on all their different programs and always use the word Word to be easy to find..? Name sizes, the top two names are 130 and the three names are 110? I thought mom and dad should be a tad larger for they are the head of the house hold and do hold the money purse and things like that? Maybe can post a completed picture in a day or two. This picture came from a site, Some Sun on Pinterest and has welcomed people to down load their drawings. I will try to post a completed picture of my finished thing close to the original to show my appreciation for being able to use his drawing. Sorry for the sideways drawing for this is how it loaded..

HandyDan Posted November 6, 2018 Report Posted November 6, 2018 Looking good Jess. What are those little blue flowers in the grass? Quote
Smallpatch Posted November 6, 2018 Author Report Posted November 6, 2018 Dan I think you don't need glasses..Thats the little pieces of blue tape I covered the areas where the stacked pieces will be glued on after the lacquer dries. The picture has them back in their dowel holes but not glued in yet..thus the tape on the ground... I'm always in a hurry to see if that last procedure helped or not and sometimes even before the paint has dried enough! Gene how is the wife, any improvement yet? It took my wife a week or so to decide if the operation helped or not. Cal and Grandpadave52 2 Quote

Gene Howe Posted November 7, 2018 Report Posted November 7, 2018 Thanks for asking, Jesse. She's doing great. Except for a few twinges, that the doc says will go away, she's pain free. She's planning to go trail riding on the Polaris Ranger this Saturday. She wouldn't even have considered that, a week ago. Cal, p_toad and Artie 2 1 Quote

Please talk her into waiting a bit longer. Pain may be masked right now and she may make the injury worse because of not feeling it. Artie, Grandpadave52 and Gene Howe 1 2 Quote
Smallpatch Posted November 7, 2018 Author Report Posted November 7, 2018 Gene this time you needed to listen to Dr. Dan!!!!!! You could just start the machine up and let it run for a few days outside her window so she will be more so ready but at least wait a few days. Shucks I even ,maid, my wife wait till the second day after her operation to weed eat. Gene Howe, p_toad and Grandpadave52 1 2 Quote
Gene Howe Posted November 7, 2018 Report Posted November 7, 2018 (edited) After much cajoling, I think she's decided to wait a while on the 4 wheeler ride. Two of her most endearing qualities are impatience and stubbornness. The pains have almost ceased so, she thinks she's good to go. She can't see the incision, so when I change the dressing, I can exaggerate the lack of healing a little. Edited November 7, 2018 by Gene Howe Grandpadave52, Artie, HandyDan and 1 other 4 Quote

Smallpatch Posted November 7, 2018 Author Report Posted November 7, 2018 Gene one thing about today's operations is you almost need glasses to see the scar as the wife's is about 1/2" long. p_toad and Grandpadave52 2 Quote
