Hi jim

Yes .I do ,I'm making the dog in the old shoe right now it's alot of work but it's fun and I can use alot of my scraps of hardwood :) b/4 then get put into the trash can or fire place. :)

I did send off for about 30 full size plans and I have only got two done because the old craftsman scroll saw I had so I got a new Dewalt 20" one that will do the trick. and with the wonder wheel on the grinder, and that helps them come out neat. :)

You may want to check out the new item on the Forum

and check out the Mikes link for the blades, they are great for intarsia :)
The #3 will cut 3/4" hardwood so clean it's hard to tell it was cut out, it looks like it was stamped out, that clean.

Jim, if you have some snapshots please post some :) I'm sure others would enjoy them also.
