    The Dw788 is heafty but not overly so. It is a good piece of equipment. If you have the footprint space I would push you in that direction.

    Have you checked the adjusting rod that sets the tension? You reach it through the switch. It might be hitting one of the fittings inside the top arm.

    Don't know but sounds exactly like what I experienced. The fix is reelatively easy. There is a video I think by the Gwanette woodworkers. You need to disasseble the Dw. It is easy believe me. Make certain you keep the various screws and bolts arranged so you can put them back the way the belong. I found that there are four screws that hold the eccentic at the back of the unit. Two of them were out and the third loose. The plate is just opposite the motor so you need to take most of the unit apart to get to the plate. Once everything is back together mine purrs now yours will also if that is your problem. you will need allen wrenches and star drives to dissassemble the parts. Tool me about 40 minutes actual time and about and hours to get up the nerver. Darryl

    thanks Travis. I had followed the tutorial in the past but for some reason it was stuck in my mind that was for portraits only . Duh! I finally resorted to Paint shop and croped the image then printed it at 125%. Simple but I guess I wanted it to be difficult. I guess I was trying to use one of the freebies to do the job and became frustrated. Oh well. thanks. Darryl

    Thanks for the input. With all the software I have I thought I could figure out how to use one of the programs. to do it. I have used Resizer but want to do it my self. TVmann44 how do you use Inkscape to resize? I tried transform/scale but the form is gigantic

    There has to be a way to do this. It is driving me "nutier" than usual. I have a pattern scanned. I need to resize it to 125%. can't figure it out. I thought changing it to tif might be the answer. Oh the thing that is messing it up is that I need to select a portion of the image and THAT portion is what needs to be resized to 125%. Tried paint, inkscape and gymp all with the same result. Help.
