General Scroll Saw Talk / Re: Securing Patterns to wood blanks.... :+}

I too, have been using spray glue for years.  If the project will take  a considerable time (multiple days) completing, I cover it with clear packing tape. That way I avoid the glue from drying and lifting during cutting.    I use paint thinner, dab on the pattern with a paper towel, wait awhile then wipe off the excess glue.  Piece of cake.

General Scroll Saw Talk / EXCALIBUR TABLE

My table is worn.  I remember some time ago a forum member had his table coated with Teflon.  I need your help in locating a company who can do this job or a supplier for the material so I can apply the coating.  I'm in Pennsylvania, USA.   Thanks very much.

I use shrink wrap on my puzzles.  It makes a real nice, easy to carry item.  I put a copy of the puzzle on the back side.   Got it at   bassflexiblepackaging.com

Drive By
 
A guy broke into my apartment last week.  He didn?t take my TV, just the remote.  Now he drives by and changes the channels.  Sick !
 
SEX
 
Condoms don?t guarantee safe sex anymore ?.. A friend of mine was wearing one when he was shot by the woman?s husband.
 
 
Lance Armstrong
 
I think it is just terrible and disgusting how everyone has treated Lance Armstrong, especially after what he achieved, winning 7 Tour de France races, whilst on drugs.  When I was on drugs, I couldn't even find my frig?n bike.
 
 The Agony of Aging
 
On the morning that Daylight Savings Time ended I stopped in to visit my aging friend.  He was busy covering his  with black shoe polish.  I said to him, "You better get your hearing checked - You're supposed to turn your clock back".
 
 
SCAM
 
Just got scammed out of $25.  Bought Tiger Woods DVD entitled "My Favorite 18 Holes". Turns out it's about golf.  Absolute waste of money!  Pass this on so others don't get scammed.
 
 
Pregnant Prostitute
 
Doctor asks pregnant prostitute, "do you know who the father is?"  The prostitute said, "if you ate a tin of beans would you know which one made you fart?"
 
 
 
Easy Jet
 
Paddy calls Easy Jet to book a flight.  The operator asks, "How many people are flying with you?"  Paddy replies "How do I know! It's your plane!"

DITTO...  Ray is the best.   He helped me with a clamp issue on my EX16 and a telephone conference to install/adjust the new clamp he sent on warranty, even though I purchased it from WOODCRAFT.  I always recommend SEYCO.

''You cannot help the poor by destroying the rich.

You cannot strengthen the weak by weakening the strong.

You cannot bring about prosperity by discouraging thrift.

You cannot lift the wage earner up by pulling the wage payer down.

You cannot further the brotherhood of man by inciting class hatred.

You cannot build character and courage by taking away people's initiative and independence.

You cannot help people permanently by doing for them, what they could and should do for themselves.''

-- Abraham  Lincoln

When the people fear the government, there is tyranny. When the government fears the people, there is liberty.
Thomas Jefferson

My reading of history convinces me that most bad government results from too much government.
Thomas Jefferson

A wise and frugal Government, which shall restrain men from injuring one another, which shall leave them otherwise free to regulate their own pursuits of industry and improvement, and shall not take from the mouth of labor the bread it has earned. This is the sum of good government, and this is necessary to close the circlue of our felicities.
Thomas Jefferson

No freeman shall be debarred the use of arms.
Thomas Jefferson

One loves to possess arms, though they hope never to have occasion for them.
Thomas Jefferson
