Olson and Flying Dutchman blades are both available from The Wooden Teddy Bear, and yes Denny supplies Pegas blades. The Wooden Teddy Bear bought out Flying Dutchman a few years back. If you order direct from www.mikesworkshop.com, you get free shipping. If you order from TWTB, you pay for shipping.

As a scroll saw instructor, I recommend starting with a skip tooth blade first. A skip tooth is a good general duty blade that clears dust away more efficiently than most others blades. Without reverse teeth you don’t have to worry about The the blade trying to lift the wood off of the table. Flying Dutchman, Pegas and Olson all have a good skip tooth blade. I would get sizes #1, #3 and ##5. Once you master those, then go on to different styles. When I teach a beginners class, I start the students off with Olson #5 skip tooth blades, on 3/4” pine. Personally, I use mostly Flying Dutchman Ultra Reverse blades in sizes 1, 3, 5, 7 and 9. I also use FD Polar blades which is a skip tooth blade, and I also use Olson reverse tooth blades. I have tried Pegas Modified Geometry blades, and they are good, but not good enough to change over.

It is very nice work Les!

Glad it worked for you Bobby! I wish there was a way to make a post a sticky so I could direct folks to it with having to find it and bump it.

Very nice work! What thickness wood did you use? What blades did you use and did you stack cut?

Hey Bobby, go over to Works in progress ant Tutorials. I just bummed a post callEd Simple Jig for blade slippage. You will find a simple solution.

As a woodworker and crafter, I always prefer wood over metal. If I were selling these, I would even consider turning the pegs myself!

What a wonderful gift for your anniversary! Congratulations and well done!

Fantastic play set Ron! You always do such great work! Are these for sale or for gifts?
