  1. @octoolguy I have probably the same tube holder and I only use 3 rows. An empty row between.. Makes it easier to get the tubes in and out, I can pull a tube only part way out and see how the tube is labeled. If you have more than 30 different blades,,,, you have a blade fetish.....!
  2. I never used the holes on the saw. I sit in front of the saw and to see which blades are in the tubes in those slot/holes I would have to get up or lean way over. At my age, I don't like to lean way over,,, been known to end up on my face. I use the cheap plastic test tubes from Ebay, and a cheap plastic test tube holder from Ebay also. It sits next to my saw so I can easily reach it. The test tube that holds the blades I am currently using lays in a little holder on the saw stand.

  11. Do not ever apologies for your english. Be proud you can speak/write multiple languages. I know only English, I envy those that speak more than one language. You are way ahead of me.

    Hello

    Great to have you join us. Look forward to getting to know you and seeing some of your work.
  18. I know the feeling..... I have a cat also.
  19. Another thought, for me it is not the vacuum noise I am worried about. I can not hear the vacuum because of the sucking air noise. So far I have not found a way to reduce that.
  20. Hummm, sounds like my dream, be in my shop and for some reason get stuck in there an can't get out... only access is enough room somewhere that my wife can pass dinner through.....
  21. Early snow even for Spokane. We had a few flakes fly by this morning in the Benton City area. Earliest I have seen. Maybe an interesting winter....
  22. Both very nicely done.
  23. Congratulations... You have a thoughtful wife. My wife bought me a Craftsman scroll saw on one of our early Christmas'. It was the worst saw I had ever seen in my life, but I used it for many years and never told her how bad it was,,, it was the thought of her doing it that was important to me... Hey, we just celebrated 52 years together a couple days ago...
  24. Another thing I read somewhere, sometime, the "dust extractors", like Fein and Festool are to run for long periods of time, where as, shop vacuums are made to run for much shorter periods. How true that is I do not know. I have had three shop vacuums in my 45+ plus years of wood working. They were not run for long periods but each one lasted many years... Just another thought to throw into the game. Kevin is correct an the Fein verses Festool. I bought the Fein, it was cheaper, after more study I realized to make the Fein equivalent to the Festool I would have to buy a HEPA filter. If you add the HEPA to the Fein, there are only a few dollars difference in price. I am thinking very seriously about adding the HEPA.
