Cheddar #2 :22_yikes:

Got a long weekend off coming up so i should get one done before it ends i hope...  :icon_sad:

[gi6ers]

Might get a couple more entries done, had a day of house/car cleaning today and have the whole day free tomorrow for painting...

[cheddarmonger]

Yay, I got my second entry in!  she was a little camera shy, wanted another dusting of dullcoat.

[Dr.Evil]

Changed my mind about what figure i'm doing and started a new one today.
Making her stand first and then the painting will start with no sodden pony's about.  :thefinger:

[cheddarmonger]

Waaaaaaaa!  I'm stuck on my entry #3, Deadly Duel -- my tablesaw is frozen, so I can't cut the base!  I'll either wait for the temp to rise enough to unfreeze the saw, or I'll cut it by hand, or I'll buy something pre-cut.  I realy rather use the tablesaw for a precision square base.  No, the saw is too big and heavy bring inside.

Portable heater, start a fire? How badly do you want to use the saw?

[cheddarmonger]

Bah...  with that tablesaw, I could knock out a perfect rectangular base in a minute.  Maybe I'll make individual bases then incorporate them into the scenic base later.

Too close quarters for a portable heater; the electric ones I have won't do anything in the garage, seeing its about zero F in there, and I have the cars and a bulldozer in the garage, so I don't want to fire up the portable kerosene or propane heaters.  I'll just wait and see if the temps get a bit warmer in the next week or so.  Or I'll go to Michaels and see if I can find anything suitable.

The tablesaw is a vintage Craftsman that my dad just gave me; it has a cast iron table, and it is belt-driven.  The belt is just too hard to flex and run through the pulleys right now.

[Dr.Evil]

What about a hair dryer, any use.

[cheddarmonger]

worth a try, I suppose!

[Custom_Hobby]

I was thinking about that too. Try it, anything in order to use your own tools.

[Dr.Evil]

Mine will be finished tomorrow, i kicked my butt this evening and got more done to her and she's looking good.  :icon_salut:
Won't get a place or anything but  i'm well happy with her.  :icon_razz:

All finished and i'm going to get the picture's taken now.  :icon_rr:
Must find a background so no one can guess which is mine.  :icon_paranoid:

[cheddarmonger]

uh-oh!

I wonder how many entries Nathan will get this time.

[cheddarmonger]

Yay, they're up!

94 entries?  Wow.
