Adam Savage "first order retrievability":
kmealy posted a topic in Hand Tools,
First try: I got a tool box with a lidded top, a couple of drawers and a tilt-out bin. I estimated what tools I'd need for the job described, pull them out and carry them in. I found in 5 minutes, I was back for something else, then another 5 minutes, for yet another tool. Not very efficient.

Headhunter posted a topic in Ringmaster Turning,
After spending most of the last two months commuting back and forth to Lost Wages to deal with parent health issues, I got these completed. Still need a bunch more but at least it's a start.

Hand saws…
StaticLV2 posted a topic in Hand Tools,
Started working on the oldest of them today. This is a 26”, 7 TPI Curved-Back saw. The curve is similar to a D-8 but the blade isn’t as tall.
Saw is cleaned, straightened, and tensioned. Waiting on files and a set tool to finish this up and put it back into use.

Winding sticks
StaticLV2 posted a topic in Hand Tools,
Today’s entry into this category is winding sticks.
Made a set for me and a set for my father in law out in Ohio (because the bench took too long to build and I couldn’t get to his mallets in time)
These are beech because I seem to have quite a bit of that left over, and it is nice to work with.
Dimensioning, milling, and everything but sanding was done with hand tools on the new bench and I am pretty happy with the results.
The half-moon style of these seem to work better for me than the inlay style but I will probably make a set of inlay style ones eventually as well.

New to scroll sawing
Pauley posted a topic in Scroll Sawing,
1. (dont laugh) do the teeth face up or down on the scroll saw? I think it’s down, but not sure.
2. How do I know if I am doing the tension correctly? I got a Wen 21 inch scroll saw and it has a tension knob with numbers from 1 through 5, but the manual doesn’t help me.
3. Finally the correct speed for the tension/wood type..?
Thanks for any help

The Afghan soldier sustained a broken foot, but Kerr was more severely wounded, resulting in amputation of his left foot and lower leg, and severe lacerations and burns to his left arm. Four days later, he was recovering at the U.S. Army's Walter Reed Medical Center near Washington, D.C.
Seen here Lt. Kerr is holding a Patriot Woodworker challenge coin display.

4th of July, 1776
John Morris posted a topic in Announcements,
Our beautiful country, as we come up to the 244th anniversary of our Independence, I am bursting with pride at how far our young country has come in such a short period of time.
I am thankful for living here, I thank God every day for allowing me and my family to be a part of the American experience. I love our American people, with all our faults, and with all our unique traits and culture that has formed since the day William Bradford set foot on Plymouth Rock.
