Nice looking display!

Very nice looking shadow box!

If you haven’t already done it, you should put some plastic around the blade where it goes through the wood.
Any moisture from the wood will rust the blade.

Thanks to all! I got a little nervous posting it up for criticism… :) Marinee5, I love the signature, by the way… My shop has actually been debating recording a spoof to the Bud Light Real Men of Genius commercials titled “Mr. Inaccurate Skilsaw Cutter Guy”. :) If you would like to see some more of my stuff, visit www.dccww.com. It’s not a shameless plug, just an invitation. (Or so you think! ;) ) Thanks again, folks.

Considering we are on the eve of Memorial day, I would say this was a perfect choice to be the first project that you post. Very nice job.

Thank you for the post, but more importantly thank you for the peace, prosperity and freedom that my family and I are able to enjoy because of the efforts of men and women like you. May God bless you and you’re your family sir. Your efforts, as well as the efforts of all those who have and continue to serve our Country, are appreciated by a grateful nation. From a New Yorker who witnessed first hand the effects of that September day in 2001, thank you from the bottom of my heart.

I didn’t think of the Memorial Day aspect. Coincidence? Yeah, probably… Michael, I greatly appreciate your support for our Armed Forces. I have been looked down upon by others because of my profession. It’s never those that I remember, though. Every good comment like yours gives me a little more pride in what I do. Thanks again, and it was the perfect post considering the subject…

I can’t imagine seeing the towers fall first hand. That, to me, is almost an unimaginable horror. Just keep those flags flying!

Dave,

This is a nice shadow box. You did a good job on the construction and design.

Well done.

Dave, great Shadow box. I plan on making one for myself. Semper Fi.. Wudbutcher (SSGT) 71-79

Fantastic job on the shadow box!... you’ve done a great job.

Also, thank you Sir for your service! People like you make our nation free, so people like me can enjoy Lumberjocks! (I hope you will too, welcome aboard!)
