Some Finished Projects

[Uncle Dave]

I thought that I would post a few of my finished projects and a homemade dust collecter that I made. If I had known that it would work so good, I would have made it better looking an possably smaller. I want to thank the members of this site for being so sharing with their help and innformation.

Very nice pieces, Dave. That last one makes me thing of pretzels for some reason, lol.

What do you do inside the dust collecter? Is that a sanding station or something like that?

[Iowa Carver]

Good work, those are very nice Dave.

Cory & Becky Lil, Thanks for the kind words.
Becky Lil, the dust collector is the bottom half of a furnace with the squirrel cage blower in it. I have a couple of filters in it and sit in front of it to use my foredom.

Uncle Dave,

I always admire a beautiful love spoon. You did a great job.

I love the homemade dust collector. The one's you can buy are so expensive.

Uncle Dave, Very nice spoons and other smaller carvings. I tried the interlocking hearts---once! I am just not precise enough to pull off a spoon like you have done. Well done! The carving station is also first rate. How many filters between you and the squirrel cage; and how many after it?

Great job Dave on all of them, love the hearts, valantines day is coming up, will have to remember them for sure. Looks like a great collector too. Bill

[Uncle Dave]

Thanks folks for the kind words.
Tom H, I have two filters before the fan and never got around to putting one at the exit. Another thing on my long list of things to finish.I generally sit in front of my open garage door with the fan exit pointed outside. I have never detected any evidence of exit dust but I'm sure that there probably is some.
