I know this is probably not the place to ask this but I dont know where else to. I was wondering if anyone knew where bobscroll went I have not seen any patterns from him in a bit. I was wondering if everything was ok I hope so.

Hi guys, was wondering if anyone had some insight into a problem ive come across. I have cut some portraits from 1/8 inch bb plywood with #3 skip reverse blades and have been getting some tear out especially against the grain. I have a dewalt dw788 2nd version. Is there something im missing I have done others with no issues. Thanx for the help guys

Great job barbara your more talented than you give yourself credit for keep it up.

Thanx for the insight guys I will check the table out some more maybe there is some adjusting I need to do

Well big yellow is now in my shed and starting to make some sawdust. It is gonna take a little getting used to. I also have afew concerns. Is the table supposed to have any play in it I get some slop if I apply pressure to the outside edges it will move. Also seems to be sloppy side to side with a tight blade. Meaning pushing on the side of a tight blade it pushes in a bit is that normal. Maybe im just overreacting what do you guys think. I sure hope I didnt get a lemon that I have heard about.
-
Thanx for the input guys I just cant wait till it arrives. I have not used a foot switch before is it hard to get used to.
-
Well I am super excited, my wife let me order dw788 today and I should have it by the 4th. I need a pinch I must be dreaming, I didnt think I wojld ever get this saw. Any input on this saw for the village good or bad

question about lemon oil
maine schroller replied to maine schroller's topic in General Scroll Sawing
I think I have only been letting them dry overnite, I guess I need to allow more time. Im not sure on the humidity its still rather cool here in maine thanx guys -
Hi guys, I was wondering if those of you here in the village could help me out. I have using lemon oil to bring out the grain on some of my projects as does steve good. But I cant seem to seal it good enough as it bleeds out and stains things it touches. Any suggestions if you have dealt with this, thanx
-
Just wanted to post a pic of the finished portrait from a pattern made for me here on the forum. I wanted to do this for a freind of mine whose dad passed away. I think it came out pretty good im sure he will like it. Thanx to all who made pstterns and god bless
-
I too am using picture frames from dollar tree and walmart. I too have issues with the backing not quite closing with the 18 inch wood inside. Any suggestions? Also had some portraits warp in the sun at a show, any ideas would be apreciated.
-
Thanx alot guys. I will try some of your suggestions, if the wife will let me. This forum is the best, you can come here with anything and get help with it. Thanx alot to all

Hey guys I was wondering if you had sugestions for operating a saw indoors. The temps in my shed here in maind right now are not gery conducive to being out there, ie sub zero temps. I have a kerosene heater but just not enough. I also notice the saw does not like to operate in that cold either. Would like sugestions on using inside my trailer. How do I control sawdust, etc. Thanx guys

This is the end result of a pattern made for me by phantom scroller. Its a rock formation in franconia new hampshire. It collapsed in may of 2000 or 2001. It was called the old man of the mountains. Thank you so much for the pattern, I think it came out great
