I've had a Cameo Silhouette for a few years and it works great. Pretty much only use it to cut vinyl for sandblasting glass. I've used the software for scroll saw patterns often.

As for me I use a lot of ML Campbell's precatalyzed Magnamax Lacquer. I also use a lot of their woodsong stain. It's acetone based and can be sprayed with Lacquer after just 20 to 30 minutes.

A mix similar to Danish oil would be equal parts of BLO,mineral spirits,and an oil based vanish. I say equal parts but it can be modified to personal likes,and some people us Naptha or Turpentine as the thinner but I always just used Mineral spirits. You can also just thin down a varnish for a wipe on finish.

I use a laser printer,I make my patterns in grey and it prints them in grey. If I use a pattern made by some one else that's black I change it from black to grey in a photo program.

A lot of it sold is B/BB or BB/BB B is the good side,no plugs,limited pin knots. BB has more knots and a limited number of plugs I get 1/8" stuff from Wurth wood group, B/BB for about $17.50 A 5'X5' sheet. They're over 100 miles away but they deliver in my area twice a week. There's one in Atlanta.

With nicks all three blades will have the same nick in line. I had a Dewalt planer years ago and can't remember if you can shift the blades a little but if you can so the nicks don't line up it will help. If not maybe flip one back around to the other side so it mismatches. I actually have a tool grinder/sharpener and do all my sharpening in house but I don't mess with those disposable blades,I just replace them.

I think this video addresses that

My guess is it's an Oliver 36"scroll saw A guy on a site I visit got an old Beach no.1 ceiling mount scroll saw running. http://www.contractortalk.com/f40/beach-no-1-ceiling-mounted-scroll-saw-142822/

I also have my saw set up next to the woodstove in the shop, got the tv working out there today,hasn't worked in ages.

There's different ways to do it but I use my wet saw that's used for cutting tiles.

Space cadet?

Man,I kept looking for a face under the hat, Thought they were wearing goggles or something ,LOL.

I haven't got a clue, no doubt I've messed this up but it was fun practice for photoshop.
-
Hmm,

Plus I just got 2 gross of the #2pikes in the mail that you recommended .
-
That's great Randy!!! Those one ounce rounds are thick.
-
Looking good, I ran off of an electric cord for a good while when I first got the shop closed in.
-
Kevin, I have been enjoying it. Right now I'm standing up using the outfeed table of the table saw. I plan on setting up a work area right by the woodstove and get busy for X-Mas

At first,when I posted a link to Zombuck coins, I thought you were cutting out profiles that were on the coins. Anyway,I tried it on one of my Zombuck Buffalo coins,cussed it once or twice. I'm going back to 1/8" plywood until I get better at scrolling
-
Nice Buffalo soldier, dreadlock rasta I'm just a buffalo soldier in the heart of America
-
Thanks for putting together the tutorial and the videos. I know that's time consuming.
-
The problem is they charge 4 times more than what you can get it for elsewhere.
-
Pretty cool, I mess around with coin rings and have played with a hand held jewelers saw on a couple quarters but not much. I have some Zombucks that might be good for holloween. They're "zombiefied" take offs of coins about 1 1/2" in diameter made of copper (or Silver)
