  1. I did a search for E 6000 glue in Ireland and came up with some locations shown. Some on e-bay, etc. You might give that a try. Larry
  2. I would send Steve an email and ask for his assistance. Larry
  3. That is the reason I stopped using packing tape. To much time to get it down right and the time to stick it down good cuts into my cutting time. Just painter's tape or no tape at all. Larry
  4. Welcome Larry. Larry
  5. Both are well worth bragging about. Larry
  6. Mike's Workshop is back on line. Had some technical problems. Larry, Just wanted to let you know our IT people found out whatever the problem was. Both the web site and email are back up and running properly now. Thank you for your patience, Vernon
  7. My email reply received Failure Notice. I have sent email to WTB asking them to forward my reply to Vernon. Larry
  8. I sent email to WTB and they forwarded it to Mike's. Here is reply. Larry, Your question about our web site was forwarded to us from The Wooden Teddy Bear. We have had no other comments about the site not working. We did launch a new web site around the beginning of June. So if you have a link to the old site bookmarked, possibly that is the problem. If you delete the old link, then you should be able to access the new web site. If you have further difficulties, please contact us again. Vernon My reply Mike’s Workshop, Inc. PO Box 33917 Portland, OR 97292-3917 (503) 760-1614 www.mikesworkshop.com My reply back: Vernon, www.mikesworkshop.com is where I am trying to go to. I am not the only one not able to get in. I saw posting on Scroll Saw Village yesterday which prompted me to try to enter the workshop. Could not enter so thought I would check it out. http://www.scrollsawvillage.com/topic/20661-mikes-workshop/ Larry
  9. It was not that long ago that this was brought to out attention on this site. One of our own informed us that his patterns were being offered for sale as stencils. Another member has noticed pattern that appeared to be a copy of one of our bunch. I have also seen this brought to our attention on all of the scrolling forums I am on. Copyright and door locks are in the same boat - they each keep honest people honest. Larry
  10. Most scroll saw blades pull to your right as you are cutting. As MT points out, you need to angle your line to the blade - angle bottom of pattern to the right. I also find is I sit to the right of the blade so I am looking at an angle to the blade I can keep blade on the line much better. Main thing is practice, practice and more practice and this will come natural to you. Larry
  11. Jim, those are some nice Texas critters. Larry
  12. Not DonR but here is some information he and I posted this past January. Don posted the numbers this past January. (This post started in 2014) I also posted the number of bearings neeeded. Post # 4 and #5 here http://www.scrollsawvillage.com/topic/17982-dw-788/ I obtained the information from the 2013 version of the video. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KjgSKrlt7LE It shows the below information in the “more†section of the video introduction. Bearings are sourced from VXB Bearings (800) 928-4430. http://www.vxb.com/page/bearings/PROD... per saw content is: Kit8616 (HK0609 Needle Bearing 6x10x9) 12 Kit7492 (HK0810 Needle Bearing 8x12x10) 2 Kit7189 (HK1412 Needle Bearing 14x20x12) 2 Some people have found the following stills useful: https://picasaweb.google.com/10354631... Sleeves that go inside bearings are sourced from: http://servicenet.dewalt.com/ 286294-00 short sleeve 286295-00 long sleeve 286430-00 drive link sleeve 286292-00 pivot rod Larry
  13. Some time back one on the scrollers (do not remember which site) talked of taking his 788 in his RV. Carried it in side compartment and set it up on a milk crate. The crate was the same height or very close to same height as the compartment bottom. He just slid the 788 onto the crate. He sat on another crate to do the cutting. Seems he did real well by doing this. Believe he did a lot of travel in his RV. I do take my 788 clone Delta out once in awhile for demos and such. I would not want to be out in public sawing with a saw I did not have a lot of "practice" on. I was asked recently if I was going to bring saw to one of our sale days cause that tended to draw more people in. . We have a sale day here every second Saturday of the month. Answer was I would have to wait and see how much weight my saw gained between now and then because it was quickly getting to heavy to carry very far. Guess you will never know until you try it. Larry
  14. This link to a July 2014 SSV post gives the video and also the ID numbers for the 788 bearings. I do not know which one fits where but I would think the larger of the group that shows 2 each will be the one you need. http://www.scrollsawvillage.com/topic/10407-dw-788-bearings/ Larry These are the numbers I have written down: Kit8616 (HK0609 Needle Bearing 6x10x9) 12 Kit7492 (HK0810 Needle Bearing 8x12x10) 2 Kit7189 (HK1412 Needle Bearing 14x20x12) 2
  15. Dave, This link will take you to Steve's site. http://www.stevedgood.com/catalog/index.php Enter the word vase in search block, hit search button and his vase patterns will show. Believe the count is 14. The bud vase patterns give the size of inserts. You will need to download the patterns to see the sizes. He even has a pattern that uses a light bulb for the vase. Larry
  16. Jerry, I am thinking that the hairline crack may just be a mark some of them get during the manufacturing process. Sometimes my thinking is right sometimes it is not. Larry
  17. Thank you Travis. :thumbs: We happy now! Larry
  18. Hope I can clear up the confusion. I do not have any videos posted. The post I made (#7 above) was in reference to video that scrimper has posted on the UK site. It is not my video. All comments and such go to scrimper. Larry
  19. Bring them on. I saw your video on "a way of making up small panels for fretwork/woodwork if you don't have any clamps at hand" at UK workshop site and it is outstanding. I will be using that video at one of our upcoming woodworkers meetings. And I will have me a set up like that made very soon. Larry
  20. Mimi - the brushes are curved so they can make good contact with the armature. Larry
  21. From one Larry to another Larry - Welcome! I have the 6 gallon 150psi Porter Cable pancake compressor. Had it for about six years. Does everything I need a compressor for. Blowing off saw dust, air tires, drying, even use it on framing nail gun. I do need to let it catch up when using the nail gun. But that is okay because I need to catch up every once in awhile when using the gun, also. Larry
  22. The just don't make them like they used to. Or was this the blade you have been using since you broke the other one?? Larry
  23. I have two folding TV dinner tables that I set up "try these" puzzles on. When the young ones show interest in puzzles on my table, I ask them "Do you like puzzles? There are some on the little tables you can try out." Almost always, they immediately move to the "try me out puzzles". Having something they can focus on draws their attention from the other items. And when there are several young ones at the puzzle tables, adults tend to drift over to see what is going on. Found out a lot of adults like to play with the puzzles also. I tell most of my adult customers to "Pick it up, get the feel of it and don't worry, if it breaks we can glue it." This seems to break the ice, so to speak, and letting them have the wood in hand helps to make a sale. Larry
  24. DW, In the Army we would heat the Kiwi to get a better shine when it was buffed. (DO NOT use open flame to heat) Would use genuine horse hair brushes for buffing. Still got my brush and some dried up Kiwi. I forget how many times I shined boots or how many pairs in my 39 Army years. Started this in jest but wonder if that brush might be a better way of buffing the polish on wood instead of rag? Larry
  25. Also have the dremel w/plunge router attachment. It works great for me and there is no upright to limit how far onto the wood I can drill. Larry
