I am not any good but I love pool. I actually like watching it more than I like to play it. I have been to the Derby City Classic in Lousiville KY and seen the best in the world compete. The atmosphere was outstanding because you are so close to the action. Watching Efren Reyes play is simply spectacular.
Efren is definitely my all-time favorite player. Many people call him the Magician. He takes and makes shots that look like magic. Few players in the world will even attempt some of the shots he takes.
If you want to see a few minutes of the greatest(my opinion) player ever, here is a video of some of the best shots of his career.
This is another pattern that I made in two sizes. The small pattern fits on one sheet of paper. The large pattern is close to 13 inches tall. The large one will display on the game room wall better.
There are a lot of sharp points in this pattern. You probably will not want to turn the blade at any of these points. Back the blade out of the corner and either come in from the opposite side or spin the blade in the waste area and back it into the corner for the finishing cut.
Sign your special projects with laser engraved customized Signature Coins:
Click image to enlarge
Some projects just need to be signed. They may last for generations and it is nice to know that your work will be remembered. When your great-grandchild opens that toy box and sees your name it will have a special place in their heart. Of course, you can also use your business name if needed. Some business names may be too long but send in the order and I will let you know if there is a problem
Here is an example of a company name. I removed the word "HAND" to make room.
For a little over $1 per project, you can add a customized laser engraved signature coin. You choose from one of four graphic styles. Male scroller, Female scroller, Woodworker, and Tree.
You drill a 1" diameter recess in the back out your project and glue the Signature coins in place. A 1" Forstner bit makes this easy. See the video below for details.
Each sheet has twelve coins. The price is $12 per sheet. Each order can have up to two sheets. Each sheet can have a different style of graphic. For example, you could order one sheet of twelve Male scrollers and one sheet of 12 Woodworkers. If you need more than 24 coins then just place a separate order. Each order has a $3.50 shipping cost.
After you place your order I will send you an invoice for the payment. As soon as payment is made I complete the order and send it USPS with a tracking number. Most orders go out within three days.
They are shipped First class mail.

WEN 3410 3-Speed Remote-Controlled Air Filtration System (300/350/400 CFM)
The WEN Air Filtration system is currently selling for $130.17 on Amazon. For that last couple of years that is close to their best price. If you would like to have more protection from dust, this is a well-priced unit. I have owned and used this system since 2017. It has worked well for me. If you add this to your dust collection system you have a cleaner and safer environment to work in.
