  1. You've outdone yourself dear sir that is a fantastic piece of art, I'll bet you were glad to get it on a back board for support.
  2. Sorry I have been scrolling for 30 years or so with a machine by hand before that there just wasn't any books then so I taught myself but if you really want to learn I would think there is a lot of information on youtube Steve Good has a pretty good program and of course the book that Travis suggested would be a good choice. Ask plenty of questions here, chances are the answers are here also. Good luck
  3. I wonder if taking a bit off the end of the screw could make the difference as the screw is shorter it will go in further perhaps using more or different threads?
  4. Great job Dennis nice cutting I just don't know how you can work with those spirals You seem to have the knack
  5. Thank you everyone for your compliments and words of encouragement. Large projects like these take a lot of time and patients but I find them more rewarding in the end, just my opinion. Again I like to thank Sully for sharing a great pattern with me. .../Hans
  6. Welcome Ray to the village you've come to the right place if you want to know more about scroll sawing, anything you want to know just ask there is no such thing as a stupid question but there is occasionally a stupid answer just jiving you, seriously welcome hopefully we'll have you scrolling in no time.
  7. What drift what quirks What are we talking about I find I go with the flow and if it wanders of I just cuss a bit and it seems to straighten itself out
  8. Hello Carl although I just can't relate to the cold snap your experiencing A warm welcome to the group is in order, My name is Hans and I live in Mexico.

  14. Marg you being on the other side of the world I would think your upper arm would always be up. LOL
  15. Fine cutting Gator thanks for sharing look real good
  16. great Job I love the soft look of pine.
  17. Just curious how many people with the DeWalt saw have purchased the gadget for locking the arm in the upright position, I find I use a piece of wood that I slide in there does the trick for me. What are some other ideas out there. Also am I the only one that keeps sticking my blade in the blowhose when I lower the arm down? It's most annoying.
  18. That name rings a bell but I don't remember what ours was, I do remember it being somewhat primitive but that's all, Oh and lots of work. Well good luck with it. Thanks for sharing that. .../Hans
  19. Hello Pat welcome to the village what make Chainsaw mill did you get, I played around with them a few years back, looking forward to seeing your first scroll saw piece. Good luck My name is Hans and I live in Mexico
  20. Nice cut Dan I'm still not comfortable with the spiral blades so what I do is use a #3 or so and then enlarge the cut with a spiral as it will just follow path of least resistance. Thanks for sharing.
