  1. Ya mon,verxs for me!lol
  2. Thanks Bobby ,i amazed my self finding this out just fooling around.
  3. My thumb screws are like polished from blades sliding out so much,this solved the problem for me ordinary wiping and cleaning didn't.
  4. If your the week end warrior scrolling that's fine but non stop scrolling hings get pretty shiny and slippery.
  5. Just way to many things to do in a day when your retired!
  6. Ah yes eagle eye,lol Little by little.You know when you have the right blade these cut very fast.I forgot to go to the big box store for dowel rods,always something!I really like cutting these.I think the blade i used that cut the best was a skip tooth scroll reverse #7 or #9.
  7. I was hoping to get all of the 100 plus cut and then show the proof.There's 2.5 gallons worth of scrap i pealed from around the compound cuttings.One thing let to another and they got put on the back burner.But here's proof you wanted ,Doubting thomas's,lol
  8. Thank you Tim , Good hearing you on the forums!
  9. Just for kicks an giggles i used my dremil with a sanding drum on the last 3/4" of the blades both sides top and bottom.Ends up i can go long time g.i. and not lose tension.Why i never thought of this i've no idea.Sand paper is fine but this way it real cleans the oil and whatever down to raw steel for gripping power!
  10. If a newbie did this I'm going to take a refresher course "scrolling 101" Sharpen my pencils and get with the progam,I've been slacking way to long This is going to be the one to watch I'm telling you.Way to go Tim
  11. That was a barnstorming idea ,everyone will get in on the mix and life will be easyier for man and horse! ;) ;)
  12. Your making time ,your skills are well honed!
  13. That's me ,except i end up on the ground! Nice one!
  14. Seldom do i get cherry but the best projects get it when i have it,I have lots of teak but am up in the air what to cut with it Not a lot of mahogang here either so special,projects win out for it.Maple is lo in stock here again special projects get it,Big plaques with lettering ,5 6,6 7 lines get my spruce and white pine.Very special projects get my walnut and oak.Plywood win most of the time,lol
  15. You will fit it like a glove,Share some scrolling adventures you've had .That will break the ice big time.Welcome friend!Load us up with pictures of your work,firewood and all.It's going to be great having you here with us! :thumbs:
  16. Thanks Barry ,She's put in another order for some baby stuff.
  17. Ralph let me warn you i've had my fingers hammared so many time doing these in close quarters .It reminded me when i had lawn service and when the weed eater string got my ankles I always wonder about how many times it hit me before i cold move out of the way.It's got to be three digits,worse then being cained!
  18. Kool ,i'm hoping for something close too!
  19. Ah what the heck ,It's only scrap wood ,lol
  20. I guess the self satisfaction goes up !
  21. LOL, i did forget i do give lots away,lol
  22. I cut 85 but keep falling asleep at the saw.It's amazing how fast you can cut one.Bad part is there is so many steps you have to do to get to the final product.I know i won't even be close to make $8 each labor,they are just too tedious .Well they kept me home ,out of trouble and not spending money which is a good thing.There are beautiful and even more so when stained or painted multi colors .I figure the best looking grain ones will be left like that,cleared or light stain.I'm thinking of a display with oxygen acetylene brazing rods between two posts would look nice for a display of them.I have over 100 now getting ready for the final stages.They were fun cutting and i'll enjoy seeing them finished .
  23. Well done ,Great addition to any patio indoor or out door.
  24. There's all the usual reasons for blades slippage ,and i've tried them all.One that's been over looked and never talked about is the screw where the blade rests opposite the thumb screw.On the Dewalt you'll need an allen wrench to turn it half a turn to change the grooves wore in it to not slip but grab for you.biggest help was changing the top and bottom thumb screws by putting the top in the bottom and the bottom one in the top holder.
  25. I have too rough it ,What ever i find it get cut on the spot with the ryobe18 circular saw
