  1. Thank You !!!
  2. This is the font
  3. Does anyone know what FONT was used in Mike and Vicky Lewis's Book U S Military Designs? And is the Font available on Rapid Resizer, if not what is a close looking FONT? Thanks Rubsterwine
  4. Thanks Bob you are so right Tom
  5. A while back my Hegner scroll saw sounded like it was chopping its way thru the wood rather than sawing. I got a few replies, but nothing helped. I decided to take the saw apart and replace anything that was in question, well I did that and could not find anything wrong. Later that day I was looking at the saw and decided that I always use the foot pedal to operate the saw, so I turned the physical on off switch on and off a few times and guess what the saw started to work correctly. According to Wolfgang at Advanced Machinery the dust can make the contact intermittent. Really glad that is done.
  6. Thanks Jim I will check that out. Tom
  7. I have a older Hegner 22v that I have used for a few years and all of a sudden it started knocking almost like it is chopping it way thru the wood. The knocking sound and feel is only there when I am scrolling other wise it still sounds smooth as always from slow to its highest rpm. No I am not putting the blade in upside down. It is very frustrating once you start cutting it sounds and feels like it is chopping it way thru the wood. Any help would be appreciated. Tom
  8. I have both a Hegner and a Excalibur so I have done both but perfer the bottom feed method that is why I am selling the Excalibur.
  9. Thank you to everyone who replied, I have been using the wood database which is a excellent site but they don't mention the aging of all the woods. I do intarsia and would like the domestic wood that would not change drastically after I have done a project. Thank You again for all the help. Tom
  10. Does anyone know where I can find a list of domestic woods that tells if they change color with aging or basically maintain their color. I found a list of about 40 different woods but they are mostly inported woods, I am looking at Aspen, Basswood, Butternut, Chestnut, Poplar, Cedar, Maple, Ash, Cherry, Walnut, Holly, Mahogany, Red Oak, White Oak, Birch, Locust, Elm, Box Elder, Hickory, Thank You
