That should work if you are using 2 1/2” hose. You might need an adapter to fit up the hose.

Dewalt stealthsonic to Pegas scrollsaw

The nozzle came with the hose. I got the hose kit at Woodcraft. It actually comes with two different nozzles and an adapter to adapt to standard 2 1/2” fittings. I used a heat gun to bend the nozzle closer to the blade. Because i use a dust collector, i used a 4” Y fitting with 2 1/2” reducers. So you will need to use what ever Y’s to meet your need. Go to Woodcraft.com and look for 2 !/2” dust collection fittings. If you want, Ill take a picture of it tomorrow.

The weight of the hose is minimal. I have no problem lifting the arm.

Split the line to collect dust from the top also. That should do the trick! I use a full size dust collector with a 4” hose split into two 2” hoses hooked up to my Pegas. You should be able to to the same with your vac. There are a lot of hoses and adapters available at many woodworking stores and online. Here is a picture of what i use.

Nice job on that! What i do with those is cut out the inside cuts first. Then, i glue the overlay onto the backer board. Then when dry, i cut out the outer line. That way the overlay and backer will always be even without having to sand!

The overall size of the hose is 1/4”. The opening that attaches to the saw will be larger. Order the 1/4” hose.

I purchased a can of 3M 77 at Home Depot in So. Ca. Just last week. The previous can of spray adhesive I had was Scotch brand 77. It did not work as well as 3M brand. I found myself having to tape sections of the pattern that lifted as I cut.

Cordless Tools Brushless Or Brushed?

I agree with Milwaukee tools. I have a Makita 18v drill and an impact driver. I very rarely use them. I mostly use a Milwaukee 12v drill/driver 99% of the time . I also use a Milwaukee 18v 6 1/2” circular saw which i use to break down rough boards from the lumber store. I also use a Milwaukee 18v string trimmer with an edger attachment and a Milwaukee 18v blower. The Milwaukee tools work well and the batteries last a long time.

Yes, it is his new site. Etsy deleted his store because it is listed in a war zone, even though he doesn’t live there anymore.

Hi Michael, Welcome to the forum! If you are talking about the lower blade guard, you will need a T-25 Torx driver. You will find Torx drivers anywhere tools are sold like Harbor Freight, Home Depot, Lowe’s or even car parts stores. Good luck!

Temu is a Chinese mail order site, Not a type of wood. I personally would never order anything from pop up adds.

Welcome to the Village! I am not familiar with that saw, but on most scroll saws you should be able to loosen the screws that hold the table to the saw. Then you can center the table to the blade. Good luck!
