Well, my DeWalt saw has been repaired finally. Had to wait about 4 weeks, but they finally got to it and replace the dead motor, no cost to me. I had the machine just over a year, but apparently the warranty is for three years. Saved me about $300. In the mean time I ordered an Excalibur 21 and couldn't be happier. This is a great machine and I'll probably relegate the DeWalt as a backup machine.
Now that I'm back in the game. I started working on some Mother Day projects for my website and I have a couple of them at my site which you might like to try. One is a stand up sign a customer wanted made, "We Love Mom." The pattern is a little different than the final image. The other is just a butterfly pattern, but I explain what I did with it to make a couple of cute stand up ornaments. You can download these for free from my web page. Just click the new Mother Day Page link to get to the download pages. Had a problem uploading them here due to size. Hope you enjoy working with them.
