I've been using the 3M Half Facepiece Respirator 7500 Series. I was advised by my doctor to use this type aftre being told that I had a lung disease and they did not know how I got it. When I am in my shop I wear it all the time. Just take your fingers and wipe them down a wall in your shop. Your fingers will pick up the dust and leave streaks on the wall. I never gave this a thought. One other thought, when not wearing your mask and walking around the house see if you do not notice your nose acting funny. That's just from the house hold dust that you've stired up just from walking around. Joey

Hi, A friend of mine and I built one a few years ago when they first came out. My wife wanted it made out of the wood called for in the plan, no plywood. That was another added cost. I purchased both kits ie. flashing lights and the clock and sound. It took about a week to build and finish. Check and reckeck everything before you glue and make sure it lines up the way it should. Look at the way the speaker and battery wiring is placed you might want to make a change there for easier access. It was a great project and we still receive many nice complements on the clock and the workmanship that went into it. Good luck, Joey

Hi, The question you need to answer is how often am I going to use this tool. If the answer is 10 hrs a day 7 days a week you might want to consider a commercial unit. On the other hand if the answer is just once in awhile and you treat it with kid gloves it should last a long time. Joey

Jason, I had considered it at one time. I did not do well selling at the Christmas craft shows so I decided against it. I now have a lot of equipment in my shop just gathering dust. A friend of mine made only spinners (some what like thosed advertised in the Winfield collection catalog). Turned out he was working all his spare time just trying to keep up with the demand. Working on, Christmas eve, he said, enough is enough and that was that. I just do it now for fun and relaxation. Later, Joey

Thanks for your replies I can now read the forum a lot better. Joey

crash, Early on in my scroll sawing days I learned about the foot switch. It was the best idea I had ran across. At the time Sears had two, 1 15 amp & 1 20 amp. I bought the 20 amp and use it on other tools in my shop. If anything goes wrong you just lift your foot and everything stops. Nice to have that peace of mind. Regards, Joey

Ken, No I haven't. I buy my blades from FD Mike and never had a problem. Regards, Joey

Hi, Does any one know where I can get an animal puzzle of a bird called a "cocktiel"? There was a man named Jim (can't remember his last name) that put out these types of puzzles. Anyone know how to contact him? Thank you, Joey

keeping a detailed pattern from breaking when cutting
Joey replied to jscottj's topic in General Scroll Sawing
Scott, I had the same problem when I tried what you are doing. What I did was, went to the library and got a book on stained glass patterns. After a little practice you will be able to cut the eye of a needle out with no problem. Joey -
Thanks Travis Joey

Hi all Does any one know if Rick Longabaugh of the berry basket is still in business? I've tried their web site and the phone number listed but got no where. The phone number is a private number. The phone number listed in Rick's books has been disconected. Thanks, Joey

Wolfmoon, You have received a lot of good advice. I would like to add to it. Know the size of the area you will be allowed to use. Set up the same area in your home and then place your items on the table. What you will learn from this is awesome. When you go to the show you will be more then ready to participate. Goog luck, Joey

Travis, Cutting puzzles was what got me started in scrolling. Patrick Spielman's book, Scroll Saw Puzzle Patterns and other authors offered a variety of methods of dealing with puzzles.I gave a lot of them away. I made sure that the pieces would not fit through a toilet paper roll hole. Thus avoiding children chocking on the pieces. I finished them with mineral oil. For the grown-ups, I gave them back their christmas cards in puzzle form. They really enjoyed that. Cutting puzzles, still to this day, I find very enjoyable. For a little fun, give someone the backer board of a cut puzzle and see how long it takes them to put it together. Remember there is no picture only the shape of the pieces to aid them. Joey
