Default 1st attempt.

first attempt at cutting coins. Love it. Fun fun fun. Just quarters so far. Gotta make jigs for other denominations.
Tossed in a pic Of today's bubble gum dispenser. Couldn't help it sorry. Easy and good sellers.
Thanks again to Steve Good. ( bet he didn't know he took me on to raise)
Anyone from far and foreign lands want to swap for some coins? There must something left here of equal value . (kiddin')
I don't remember what thread but whoever mentioned clamping emery boards for sanders. Bless you!!!!! This forum and the folks here are great.

Nice job there, Oily. It's kind of cool once you get the hang of it, eh? What blade are you using?

Nice job on all of them Nice finish on the dispenser....Did you make it out of pine or poplar?

I use the Emory boards all the time as well as some others. Glad it helped you out.

G'day Rob,
Love the Lolly dispenser, must make one, as soon as that 25 hour day comes in .

The coins look good mate. I haven't tried cutting them. I'd be more than happy to send you a few bob, but not sure how easily our will cut. They seem to be heavier than yours.

If you want to have a shot at them let me know.

Hi Rob...

First of all... That's a real work bench... Nice & messy and I'll bet you know where everything is laying!

I'm not much into the coin cutting, but what you have done looks good.

You did a nice job on the gum ball dispenser.

Looks like you are using a Hitachi table saw. Bless you! I had one and couldn't get rid of it fast enough.

Thanks one of the Mikes, The bubble gum machine was a short piece of pine that used to hide on top of the rack. When it fell on my head the 3rd time I said "ok buddie this is your day". No finish just sanded with 120.
I usually leave them bare with all the misinformation about coatings and the kids often like to personalize them with markers.

Hey John, The dispensers are snap all straight table saw cuts and hole saw if you have the sizes for the jar lid and wheel. I added the tray on front 'cause I kept droppin' my gumball and it takes awhile to chew the sawdust and cat hair out of 'em. It's another Steve Good pattern in his catalog.
I would love to give them a shot. Let me know what we can swap.

You probably already know of these folks, they have some handy products. I use their Blowfly sander like a mop sanded.
