That is just awesome cut and well done.
-
Well they are certainly nice ans very well done, BUT,,, I don't see a Seahawks one.
-
Some very nice stuff, you have been busy!

I know nothing about them and there is little info in the section on this forum that critics scroll saws. What I saw on their site would make me a little dubious about their blade holders, they just appeared weak to me, but I really don't know, not having seen one personally. As for PC boards frying, it does happen, but rarely in my opinion, but again only my opinion. As for belt changing, it wouldn't be a problem for me. I had a lathe that required belt changes and I never minded it. Others certainly would disagree with me on that. Five speed being adequate,,, depends on what the speeds are. I know I change speeds often when I am scrolling. It also depends on what you get use to and if the five speeds is what a person gets use to I think it would be fine. Sorry I can't be much help. I'm anxious to see what the responses are. I'd like to learn more about them.

Very good use of it. Well done.
-
Great build, and welcome to the forum. Did you have plans or is that your own creation. Very interesting.
-
Nice work!
-
Thanks, Joe I was wondering that.

Another Charles Dearing pattern. It is 1/4" BB. I used several different blades, kind of experimenting to see how different blades work for me on the Hegner.
-
I think you did a great job on that!

That is some fine cutting. Not being very hip, I'm not sure who he is, but you cut him great. The face in the younger version is only held in place in one little spot. That must have been scary to cut. Well done.

I am not into movies or actors much, but one came along that I really enjoy over and over. I read the book, loved it. Then the TV series came out. I wasn't too excited about the series because they never really go by the book. This was an exception. They went by the book page, by page and the actors they selected could not have been more perfect in my opinion. I have watch the series I don't know how many times, and reread the book twice. Doing this picture, made me start watching the series again.... so LONESOME DOVE thank you Robert Devull (who himself said it was a role of a lifetime) and Tommy Lee Jones.

Okay Dick, so you exaggerate somewhat, but yep it was fun. Certainly hope it will happen again and again. We can get your daughter involved next time. It would be great fun. Thanks again for coming.

Great job!
-
Beautifully done on all of them.
-
Great job, Dick.
-
Did it come with a manual? There are some things I had to read the manual to find out, for instance, the top clamp should wiggle a little when in place. The thumb screw should not be screwed down tight. Looks to be in good shape, I think you got a great score. Happy scrolling.

Have you tried ereplacementparts.com?

That is beautiful! I just ordered the plans for a clock, not going to be nearly as impressive as that.
-
Deserve to be proud. I'd be proud also. Very nice.
-
You certainly did that up nice. I love the blue background. Great choice.
-
Beautiful cuttings.
-
That is a great cutting. I am saying even though I am probably one of the 10 people in the world that never liked the Beatles as a group, liked some of the songs they wrote but not them singing ...... I know every one hates me. But to make it worse for me I never liked the Beach Boys either.... I liked Elvis... when he was young.
-
Some pretty wood, yep, nice score. How thick? Can't wait to see what you make with it.

Welcome, so glad you signed on. I can say I learned most of what I know right here on this forum. The answer to all questions in on this forum but if you can't find it or don't have time to look, ask the question and you will get answers. Just remember there are many ways to do things, so work out which answer works best for you. For example, there are a lot of blades, sizes, brands, types. Flying Dutchman and Olson blades are the most popular I would guess. The size and type depends on what you plan to cut. There are charts available online that show blade size, versa thickness of wood you are going to cut. Good article here about blades in general: www.scrollsawvillage.com/topic/20398-newcomer/ But through it all there is the ones you like best, others may not. You have to practice and experiment to determine which you like best. Remember it is suppose to be fun, and it is. relax, and enjoy. You are starting off with a great saw.
