    The County Fair

    My wife and I went out to the fair today. My main goal was to find the guy with the Hawk scroll saw so I could try it out. I guess he didn't make it this year because I looked high and low and couldn't find him. If figures just when I had the wife convinced that I need a new saw...

    I did find a group from a local wood turning club, they had a couple laths set up and they were turning bowls. There was also a couple old timers from a craving club. I think I'll check them out because they meet every Wednesday at the local park.

    I was also looking to see what kind of wood projects that I could enter in next years fair. I saw one intarsia rose, lots of bird houses and a couple really nice clocks....

    I also checked out the one and only doll house, pretty lame for 1st place..
    Every time I see the doll houses I think back to when they wouldn't let me in the door with my cabin

    It was a fun day..

    This is the tapestry I found in the cedar chest. We can’t identify where the pictures are from. Two among many. I also forgot to mention dad was also in the army Fife and Drum Corps and also played with a big band when he was discharged. Have to find that info....

    What a morning. The therapists were quite pleased with what he could do. He took the wrap off today and he can walk with the walker with very little pain. It’s getting the leg completely straight that is hard to do. It’s when his brother stopped in that things went off rails. Rolf, we are talking...

    If you are referring to 3D Compound cutting, the blade is 90 degrees to the table and not tilted. I use the tilting head for things like inlays and Carole's bowls. If you want a tilting arm, be sure it is rack and pinion. Look at other features that may fit your needs. As a Pegas dealer, I can help...

    I think the foot release was an option. I don’t see the pulley for it on the back of yours. Although it may have been removed. It is a very simple concept, it’s a cable attached to the back of the saw to release the arm
