I need some sugestions.  I bought seven pieces of walnut lumber the other day for $50.00.  They range from 4 to 6 foot high to 12 to 20 inches wide.  I think a lot can be done with this lumber.

General Scroll Saw Talk / removable adhesive paper 2

« on: August 20, 2011, 11:30:40 pm »

So far I wish I had never ever brought the subject up about the removable adhesive paper.  I did not think it would start an argument over it.  So how about we just forget I even mentioned it.  I did not mean to upset anyone.  I think maybe I will not post anything again if it is going to end up like this.

General Scroll Saw Talk / Removable Adhesive Paper

And a Good Evening to everyone,
A while back I ask about Sloan and I had good reports.  Well. I ordered from them, and gor my clocks and other stuff too.  I also ordered some removable adhesive paper.  I used it today.  And I have to saay it sure beats any spray.  It peeled off with very little scrapeing, and there was no glue to deal with.  I just thought I would let you all know about it, which most of you alreay knew.
