  16. As was mentioned, the thumb screws are metal with plastic ends to tighten. On the working end is a movable tip called the anvil. The anvil often gets rounded over and shiny from tightening the blade against the set screw. The anvil is replaceable as is the whole thumb screw. But it's just as easy to dress the anvil. I have a simple jig to dress the anvil. Go over to Works In Progress And Tutorials here at the Village where I have a great tip with pictures. It is titled Simple Jig For Blade Slippage. I just bumped it the top so it will be easy to find.

  20. First of all, welcome to the Village Joe! I hope we can help you with your problem. The FD Puzzle blades are a 3/0 skip tooth blade. I have had no luck with FD blades smaller than a #1. I just tried some FD Ultra Reverse # 2/0 blades recently and I could not control them. When I cut jigsaw puzzles I use Olson 2/0 skip tooth blades. They are a lot easier to control. I haven't tried their 3/0 blades because I don't have any, but it might be a blade for you to try. i also don't use a pattern. I have always cut them free hand. It's hard to see it, but my Avatar is my first jigsaw puzzle.
  21. I won't even open a photobucket file because of all the adds.
  22. Cool work Dave!
  23. That is impressive Mimi! Can you give us details on material and blades and technique?
  24. Very nice gifts Andrew!
  25. Nice work Pete!
