    No this is not my idea. This topic came up a few times during the summer . I believe it was this thread that started things but I can not remember. https://www.scrollsawvillage.com/forums/topic/32348-napkin-holder/?tab=comments#comment-361434 These were popular on some Russian sites and brought over here. I have been working with a couple people to get me some of the designs. Don in Brooklin, and Ivan Nikolaev, members here. If you do a search here you will see these threads about this type napkin holders. Others have created designs and joined in also. I have other ideas if these do take off and will work on them this winter. I have shown the back of these 2 to show you the simple way the napkins mount. These are 5 X 5 cocktail napkins folded in a triangle and slid in the wheel. These are patterns basically taken from some laser cut patterns found on etsy.

    Well these have been talked about here and I decided to add them to my show items and hope they sell well and make great gifts for many this season as my shows start this weekend. The cocktail napkin holders. I will give people choice of color of napkins at show. If these take off I hope to add more to the lineup next year. I still think this is a cool idea. Hope others do to.

    Great that is what I am going to try and being that is a good price and free shipping it is worth a try. Thanks for the heads up.
  5. JTTHECLOCKMAN
    So you use it in place of blue painters tape, is this correct??
  6. JTTHECLOCKMAN
    I thought I would give this a try. How do you use it??

    The one thing in his statement that he is not stating about surge protectors, they are good for the occasional power company surge but useless against lightning strikes. It will blow right past those wall surge protectors so be aware of that too. For lightning protection, a whole house good grade surge protector installed at the panel is your best shot.

    Just to put a bow on this and to let Bill know that the King and the Excellsior are the exact same saw rebranded and here is the proof. The Vice President of King Corp. was talking. This snipet also explains the origin and trail of all the excalibur saws. I also included the entire link if you want to read the rest. It does explain alot and takes some of the guessing out of these origin of saws. Boy I did alot of homework on a saw that I do not own or even saw. The only Excalibur I tried out was the EX30 when they first came out. I did not like them then and probably still wouldn't like it. I do not even like my Dewalt788. Scroll down to where it says in action. https://scrollsawer.com/2018/03/07/product-review-its-good-to-be-king/

    There should be a rating on the old fuse so just match it. Unless it was a used saw then all bets are off. Boy Bill you know how to make an entry. 5 page thread
  10. JTTHECLOCKMAN
    I could not answer that and have no knowledge of any of these saws. I think my work here is done. By the way what size fuse is used on the Dewalt?? Just checked 3 amps.

    http://files.kingcanada.com/catalog/products/servicemanualxm/KXL-16 service manual.pdf 4th page down part #38
  12. JTTHECLOCKMAN
    Yours Bill. In service manual it is listed as a 5amp and cost $6(now that is a rip off) https://www.kingcanada.com/en/products/woodworking/scroll-saws/
  13. JTTHECLOCKMAN
    I figured they were all the same. Now you know.
  14. JTTHECLOCKMAN
    Talk about fuses, I thought that was a 5 amp fuse for them. Let me check again. Yep calls for a 5amp fuse according to the manual. Yea no matter weather warm or cold if the saw was operated before and then sat for a long period of time it could have grease solidify some or something. Maybe something else but that would have been my first guess. Could run that thing for 10 years and never have another fuse blow.
  15. JTTHECLOCKMAN
    Towards bottom of page 2. This thread took on some life that most threads here do not. This may help others because there are alot of those type saws out there.
  16. JTTHECLOCKMAN
    He said he did not use the saw for a long time. Sitting out in a shed in elements could have rusted the armature abit, stiffened the grease in the bearings, or a number of things. He tried spinning the motor by hand to get it to work so this may have freed things up. The fuse blew due to the extra current to try to start. These things can happen for people who have garage shops or shed shops and have tools that sit for long periods of time. This would be my educated guess.
  17. JTTHECLOCKMAN
    Well that confuses things even more. Maybe the color of the saw can tell the difference in place made. I know the saws Ray is putting out now are not called Excaliburs but it would be hard pressed to tell the difference except for the tilt box he added. To me they are all clones and call it what you want. Cosmetic changes here and there. I remember when the Dewalt moved out of Canada and the mess that created and those saws still show up and cause havoc. Type #1 saws were sought after when that took place. I am guessing things calmed down with those.
  18. JTTHECLOCKMAN
    What year is it?? I am abit confused now that Randy has chimed in. Are there only one type EXcaliburs?? I thought Seyco was the one making them and not China. We maybe talking about 2 different saws here.
  19. JTTHECLOCKMAN
    Ray take a photo of where that chord connects to the saw and post it. Hard to believe yours is not in the same place.
  20. JTTHECLOCKMAN
    Hard to get Delta parts these days. It has been talked about here. People liked the blade clamp on them.
  21. JTTHECLOCKMAN
    Oh be careful about downplaying the Dewalt saw here. There are people that truely love them and they get brought up all the time. I myself was a huge RBI guy as you probably remember but like with everything when they sold the business they went down hill and I do not recommend an RBI to anyone any more. Seems like the new player which it too is another clone of the Dewalt/ Excalibur, is the Pegas. By the way glad it worked out.
  22. JTTHECLOCKMAN
    My point was for others incase they are reading this too and run into this problem. Bill has dabbled in everything believe me. Let him get a video up and he will sing a song or two while playing his guitar.
  23. JTTHECLOCKMAN
    You always start at power source. From outlet to saw. If you have a footswitch, eliminate that. Never go diving into a control board if you do not know what you are doing. The diagrams I am looking at for all these type clone saws show an external fuse black. Maybe disguised but there. Those that have an excaliber where is the fuse on your saw??
  24. JTTHECLOCKMAN
    Every photo I have seen for Excellsior and excalibur have the fuse block directly underneath the plug that connects to the saw and the photos are from 2017. Maybe the earlier ones did not have this but I know the Dewalts and Excaliburs had them. I can not find a manual online that shows that fuse #30. If someone has a link maybe I can figure it out. Found a manual Looks like the fuse is part of the chord socket. I would take the chord out of socket and look behind it to see if that is where the fuse is. If not see if you can pry the socket out and see if the fuse is behind the entire socket. It says #38 goes into #37 The fuse will always be before any controls or any boards. It should be right after the power chord. Has to be. It is protecting the entire saw. Follow the power chord and you will find the fuse. https://www.kingcanada.com/en/products/woodworking/scroll-saws/
  25. JTTHECLOCKMAN
    If it is a knock off of the excaliber then look under the chord where it plugs into the saw. The fuse on those is under there. Wonder who this guy is?? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZvoTHxs3IrU
