    Thanks Iggy for your video and even your plan for you puzzle stand. I'd like to suggest to you a small modification on your stand . In the center, you left it open, I would suggest to close it and that way it gives you a hidden space to put bags, cards and your client will not see these. Again its just a suggestion but I found that at fairs, its important to find a space where you can have your supplies without having everybody see them. What do you think?

    That is really nice WayneG. Do you know the significance of the symbols? their meaning?

    Thank you Iggy for taking the time and doing the video. You mentioned that next time, you would rent two both. If you have had two both from the start, would you have setup your display exactly like yon your second day or would you have set all of your tables side by side to have a better "frontage"?

    Iggy, This is fantastic work! How do you keep your puzzles together? Do you use plastic wrap of some sort? Rubber bands? masking tape on the back? Thanks

    Thank you Iggy, I just got 3 that I got on amazon for $7 each. Like Scott, I prefer darker colors. They make my pieces come out! I chose a hunter green.

    Red cedar is at the top there but also Poplar. Poplar has a very distinct sweet smell that is not at sweet as sugar maple but sweet enough to recognize it from a mile away!

    Hi Jean-Claude from Burlington Vermont! Your English is totally fine but if you ever feel like asking questions in French, just send me a PM (Personnal Message) I'll be very very happy to converse with you in French.

    Looks like woodcraft is starting to distribute the EX made by King Canada but they call it King industrial 16" or 30". They are selling the 16" and the 30" saw. Not the 21".And prices look good! 599 and 899. https://www.woodcraft.com/products/king-industrial-16-inch-scroll-saw?via=573621bd69702d0676000002%2C573621e069702d0676000f61%2C576401bf69702d3ae3000c4b

    Welcome to the village Rolland from beautiful Burlington Vermont. I too was looking into a local club in my area and couldn't find one but this forum tis the next best thing.

    I've been using 1" cherry and Walnut because I have tons of it! I get the off cuts of a furniture maker ! But like Iggy, Poplar is one of my favorite to cut with.

    I'm using the plastic tubes with the lid. When I buy the blades , I take the label and stick it on the tube so I know exactly what I have in the tube. For holding the tubes, I just used an old jumbo peanut butter jars to hold the tubs. Works for me!!!

    I've been using a mixture of Mineral spirit, BLO and polyurethane. after dipping, I let it drip, wipe the excess and let it dry for 24 h. Some of my backing are painted and the paint doesn't dissolve.

    I cut a lot of hard (Maple, Walnut, Cherry and thicker BB) and thicker wood (1/2" to 1") and I opted for the Olson PGT #7 or #9. I have not found a blade that stays this sharp for this long and the finish cut is practically polished. I've tried the Pagas and they were OK. I might need to give the FD a try!

    Hi Iggy, where did you get a full set of bearings and bushings? I'm in the process of biting the bullet also but I'd like to be ready will all the right parts before I take mine apart.
  22. poupster2

    You are right Randy, Options are great. If I ever decide to sell my Dewalt, I'm just keeping the knobs and the byer will never know!

    Scrappile, if you mean a set screw, yes it does have a set screw. You jam the knob on your existing screw and with an Allen key, you tighten the set screw so it doesn't come flying off in the middle of a cut.
