Cor, you've been productive . I'll bet you're popular too (but not with Disney and Warner Bros ), making such nice pictures.

Nice work Robert,

I'm sure keeping the shop widow's friends happy will score brownie points with SWMBO herself.

(Gill, who's Cor?)

Regards,
Marcel

Thanx for letting me share

How can we stop you?

Seriously, we wouldn't want to stop you. We're just glad that your mother taught you to share when you were little.

Nice work. Keep them coming.

very nice work all the way around Robert I especialy love Winnie the Pooh

[ozarkhillbilly]

Good job all the way around!

Robert I like Winnie the best also, may I offer another method of mounting?

Once you cut the border shape of Winnie, place it on top of the board you wish to mount it on and then using a 3/8 or 1/2 washer, place it next to and against the edge of Winnie. Then using the washer and a pencil like a spiro graph, trace the outside edge of winnie to get a slightly larger copy of Winnie's out line.
I hope that makes some sense. checkout my thumbnails perhaps they'll give ya a better idea of what I'm trying to say.

Sorry the elephant pic didn't show as well as I hoped it would for showing the border edge.

Wow Bill,

I really like that eagle within an eagle. Was that from a commercial pattern, or one of your own?

Great work there Robert! Thanks for crediting the designers too! I've cut many of those Elvis's, seems he's still immensely popular and an excellent seller.

Thanx everyone for the kind words

OK, Marcel, I'll bite ......what's SWMBO

Bill,
Now that's a clever idea, and one I know already as I have used it to fit corner shelves and counter tops against less-than-perfect walls and corners ..... never once thought to use it here ! Thanx for the suggestion

As for " letting me share " ....it's just so gratifying to have kindred spirits to share with from my lonely part of the globe. I'm very grateful to have found y'all and for all the friendship, inspiration and knowledge I have found here
....heartfelt thanx

SWMBO stands for She Who Must Be Obeyed. It was a term popularised by John Mortimer, the barrister and author who created the lawyer Horace Rumpole in a series of books which were dramatised on television as Rumpole of the Bailey. Rumpole never called his wife by her given name, simply She Who Must Be Obeyed.

I believe the original SWMBO was created by H Rider Haggard in his novel She.
