    Nothing in this world can take the place of persistence. Talent will not: nothing is more common than unsuccessful men with talent. Genius will not; unrewarded genius is almost a proverb. Education will not: the world is full of educated derelicts. Persistence and determination alone are omnipotent. Calvin Coolidge

  1. Deals like that are so fun, congrats!!
  2. Congratulations Rusty, well deserved and just have fun with it! 2
  3. Looking good Gerald. I felt exactly as you did the first time I saw phicops in a circle. What's really amazing to me is that something with such a big visual impact could be so easy to draw. I too use a compass as well as french curves when I draw it.
  4. VERY NICE! The brass work really sets it off.
  5. Our daughter and family recently visited friends in California, while there, they did universal studios. Our grand daughter who is 8 had quite the time. Fist, she got assemble her very own light saber at the star wars park. Then, she got to go through the wand ceremony at Ollivander's wand shop at the Harry Potter park. The video of that is pretty amazing, they don't miss a trick. When they got home our daughter asked me to make a display wall hanging for the saber and wand and had a picture of what she wanted it to say. I can freely admit, I'm very happy with the way this turned out. Everything is original. The wood is a soft maple slab I've had in the shop for a year or so. The brackets were drawn with tinkercad and printed with a Bambu X1carbon 3d printer. The lettering was done with an Ortur LM3 laser using Lightburn to drive it and do the graphics. Above is the picture she gave me and the pictures below are my interpretation.
  6. Thanks everybody, it was a great day!!
  7. Buying a windows machine doesn't have to break the bank. I bought a mini computer off Amazon. The one I bought is $179.00 right now. KAMRUI Mini PC Windows 11, AK1 PRO 12GB RAM 256GB SSD Mini Desktop Computer, Celeron N5105 CPU, 4 Core Micro PC Computer, Desktop PC 4K, Support 2.5’’ SSD, 2.4G/ 5.0G WiFi, Gigabit Ethernet, HTPC I don't run a CNC but I run two lasers simultaneously with it often. What takes a powerful machine is the cad program which you could probably still do on your Mac. This computer is bare bones in that it doesn't come with a monitor or mouse and keyboard. Any old TV or monitor with an hdmi input will work though and a wireless mouse and keyboard are about 20 bucks at Walmart.
  8. Great looking display and you have some really good turners in your club!
  9. Beautiful and I too am impressed you kept it together.
  10. Nice work Gerald.
  11. I normally stick to the wood turning forum but I just had an unbelievable customer service experience and wanted to give kudos to the company. I bought an "Industrial Air" compressor at a local farm store in 2012. About a year ago the head gasket went so I bought a 3rd party rebuild kit and replaced it. Well, it blew again this morning. Rather than keep replacing it again and again I wanted to see if a new pump was affordable. Called the 800 number on my owners manual and the lady found what I needed and said they have it for four hundred(about) dollars. She then said, here is a company that has it for $360.00, hang on, Oh here it is, "Air Compressors Direct" has it for $259.00 and here is the model number they have it under. Unbelievable to me. What great customer service. Just ordered the pump and BTW, free shipping to boot
  12. I'm impressed! I had the Mcnaughton system and just never figured it out.
  13. That's pretty awesome! The bottom one has more visual impact for sure.
  14. I think you've had the design/shape thing down for sometime. My personal like is the one on the left but all three could find a place in our home.
