I usually cut for about 4-5 hours at a time. I sit on a excercise ball, I have tried the chairs, bar stools and standing, but I find this to be the most comfortable.

That is a great project. Well thought out and put together. Nice job

Very nice job on the cutting. Thanks for sharing

Hello everyone, Thanks for all the comments and suggestions. I ended up running a torch lightly across the back to get rid of most of the fuzzies, I then used my orbital sander to smooth out the entire piece and an xacto blade and 4oo grit sand paper to get the rest of the fuzzies that were left behind. Once again thanks for the help Happy Scrolling

Hello everyone, I was going through the forum and didn't see any topics on this. I cut out a I pic of Yoda for my nephew. I got the pattern off the internet from another pattern maker. The problem is, I have never used a spiral blade before. I didn't realize how much fuzz and rough cuts are left behind afterwards. Does anyone have a good solution to sand these without ruining the project? Any help would be greatly appreciated

Well Done Keith... Your son is gonna love it!!!

Hello, I converted my garage into my bedroom which is where I currently do all my scrolling. I hook up my shop vac to the scroll saw and I rigged up a secondary tube just behind the blade above the table which captures all the rest of the dust. I don't have any dust anywhere else.

Gator, Thank you for sharing this with us. You did an amazing job. The finished product is absolutely stunning.

You did a great job on both. keep up the good work

Kevin, Depending on how wide you want to go, you can use a couple of pipe clamps. That way they are long enough to put in as many pieces as you want. I hope this is helpful

That looks absolutely amazing. I have always wanted to try doing Intarsia, but it looks a bit intimidating. Although you make it look easy. Thanks for sharing this.

Great job. I think it works much better as a plaque. Thanks for sharing. Tom
