Hey Paul, You'll have plenty of questions and this is the place to get answers. One of the first things to consider is blade choice. The ones that come to mind are Flying Dutchman, Pegas and Olsen. My personal choice is Flying Dutchman Polar, been using them for more than a decade now. I would suggest getting a sample pack of each kind to find what works for you. Other than that...scroll on....... Chris

FWIW, what I use is a Flying Dutchman #2/0 Polar ( could be 0/2, I don't remember exactly), always get a good fit !!! Chris -

Here's my offering. I adapted the pattern from a wood carving pattern in wood carving Illustrated. The white and brown are craft paint, the other colors are a sharpie. Chris

Looks like price wars for saws - advice needed
Hawk replied to new2woodwrk's topic in General Scroll Sawing
Pick the one that you're comfortable with (price mostly) all 3 choices have their pro's and con's, go with your gut!!!! Chris -
Welcome back... I went thru the same thing a few years back, when I returned is when I decided that I would do the projects that interested me, not for some other reason that set a deadline, that's when it's no longer fun ! So Pick the projects that catch your eye and no timeline.... Chris

I used a fluorescent magnifying light for years, always bumping my head when it was rasied and seemed like I was always fighting it to get it n "the sweet spot" for cutting. Got a pair of these visor magnifyers and what a difference, just flip up after cutting and flip down to cut,band they move with me, I don't see myself ever going back to the fluorescent magnifying light Chris

Depending on how thick it you could cut a key hole with a router. Otherwise I'd go with a saw tooth like spirithorse suggested. Chris

Welcome from a fellow Michigander. This is a great place to learn, get any kind of question answered and see what others are doing. I'm in the Gladwin area. Chris

Been using them myself for more years than I care to mention. And your right, a giant leap ahead of the big box blades. Chris

Welcome, it looks like your well on your way. Very nice work. Chris

Nice, is the hole just drilled in? And what kind of birds do these attract?

Another vote for the 3M77. I've tried the cheaper stuff, always failed on me. The 3M77 won't fail!! Chris
