Bad Scrolling Day!
« on: August 31, 2012, 05:12:25 pm »
Nothing went right today! I could not get light or magnifier in right place, blades seemed dull, broke piece off portrait, blades kept wandering off pattern, curves square, circles looked oblong, points were rounded, v cuts were round, pilot holes not completed,etc,etc,etc. BUT I WAS HAVING FUN!

Having fun is what counts. Its the journey...
And there are also days ahead where everything goes right.

We all have those days Tony. yesterday in my haste to beat the heat I broke a mini drill bit in the portrait I was cutting. I just needed to enlarge the hole just a little, I was using a hand held pin chuck. I needed to enlarge the hole because I ran out of 2/0 blades and now using a #1. Now of course, I cant get the bit out cause It broke flush with wood. So I started something else and will get back to the portrait after I get over being pissed off, maybe tomorrow, maybe next year.

we all have day's like that. good to see you stay in the good mood.
if a day like that comes to me, after 3 or 4 issues the fun is going away, then I stop and I call it a day.
don't want to get angry or frustrated over scrolling, it has to be fun!
works for me.

Well yesterday was a very low mistake day Unfortunately it was also a very low sawdust day -  as in none!  It was miserable in the shop early and just got worse. I can usually get out there after supper for a bit but last night @ 7PM the temp in there was still 96. Doors open and fan running Today doesn't look much better  :(

If you take a deep breath and count to 10 - that is a blessing - especially if you are using yer fingers to count ;)

Really? Are you serious? All this time I thought only those things happened to me. Kind of makes me feel a bit better knowing that every single thing you stated here actually happen to others. Well I hope your next day of work is a super good day. I enjoy seeing your projects when you post them.
