  1. ALL IS WELL! ahha I fixed it, Must of something wrong with my Chrome that i've been using. Whatever java or flash player they are using, it wasnt updated or something. Switched it to Mozilla, and all is well now! Thanks guys!
  2. Yeah, I went onto my parents laptop when I was over there, and it works fine for them! What am I missing on here that its not popping up for me?! Thats wierd.
  3. Are you able to input your own design!? Mine shows this. Nothing like it was a week or two ago. There used to be a place to upload your own picture
  4. Im looking for a site that I can post my own picture and it will make a stencil out of it. There was one, but they changed it to payment.
  5. I'm pretty much guessing when it comes to it. I still have to get my Father in law to look at it and confirm that its what I really need. Im assuming its a bushing/washer down inside the bottom clamp area. its moving left and right way to much, and as seen in the video posted and the response that to, its my assumption. No need to sell off your parts Im only still a newbie at this all and starting off. Saw was only 70$ from online used, so worse comes to worse, I won't let my wife go shopping for those shoes she always wanted....wait...Cant do that.. haha
  6. Alright, Ill deff keep my eye open for parts for them but thank you all for your help! LEAST I know what it is now.
  7. Yeah, I don't have the correct allen key that comes with the machine. Its hard to make it TIGHT TIGHT but It takes me a few minutes to get it to the right tightness, but it works. Yeah. I thought so. It works for what I want it to do at the moment right? Still starting off, first year at it, so might as well try and work my way up and use what I have correct? Ill look into it and see if they make new parts for them and see if I can get them cheap. Thanks guys!
  8. That is awesome. I would love to try to start doing intarsia. Too many ideas on my head I want to do first and not enough time to do em! haha.
  9. Yeah, I picked up this saw off a site like Craigslist, but for Canada. It came this rusted, and was thinking I should really fix it before doing anything extreme or must more. PIcture #2 shows the blade. Its not even clamped in the bottom clamps. I just wanted to show where the clamps were. The Wobble is side to side. Its easy to see when the blade is in motion. If this helps anything, When I clamp the blade to the lower clamp, Its in front of the setscrew that you "screw" to tighten up the clamp. I'm not sure if this clamp is in the proper place, or I can unscrew it a bit, and more the clamp peice inwards more. I will look at it soon, and let you all know.
  10. My model number is 40-540C Here are some pictures. I tried to see if there was any play in the two arms, nothing there. Would the clamp at the bottom be off or may be wrong way? Not sure really. Im going to check the clamps tonight, like someone said, they may not be exactly aligned,
  11. I have a delta scroll saw, tension is correct, but when I turn it on, the blade has a wobble and is not perfectly straight which makes it hard to do connect lines, or any fine details. Any ideas how to fix this wobble?
  12. Must of clicked on an AD, AVG picked up a malware when trying to download something.
  13. I was thinking about putting backers on them, but two of the three said they are going to hang them in thier "family" rooms, so they would have the wall color show through, which I thought would be good enough for a backer...yes?
  14. Can you link me directly to his software? his site is mashed up with spyware and adlinks.
  15. Guys! http://online.rapidresizer.com/photograph-to-pattern.php This website went into "payment" form and no longer free, from what I can tell. I loved that site! Any new ones out there?
  16. Boss of mine is getting married. Thought it would be a nice gift. Both Brother-in-laws wanted one aswell. Said might as well right?! Hope you guys like it!!
  17. Thanks guys! First time trying out "fret" work I believe its called with a spiral blade on the tiger itself. Turned out pretty well I must say!
  18. Hope you enjoy. Made them for a stag n doe for brother in Law. Raffling them off with Tiger tickets. Hope you like!
  19. Done this alot fast then last one. Getting better and faster! Whatcha think!
  20. I recently found a local shop that sells all hardwoods and softwoods. Lumber yard type of store. Just google whats around you, and ask around if anything. I found it EXPENSIVE if you want ship wood over the internet, but that might just be me, (To bring usa wood to Canada)!
  21. Awesome first pattern and cutting! Coming from one noobie to another, If you get some nice blades (Flying Dutchman I started to use), It makes a whole difference. Try different blades, different styles of cuts. I went from a piece like you did there, to doing some intercsecting word art. It takes time, and more time. haha. Doesn't come within a few months or even a few tries. For me, Working on a pattern and finishing it, I learn more about scroll sawing the more I work on new peices of work. You WILL make mistakes and Swear at your saw ....I know I did a few times! HAHA Anyways, Keep up the good work! It will deff come with pratice.
  22. Finally finshed it. opinions?
  23. Love the Harley Davidson - Thinking about making one for a Brother-in-law thats huge into them! I think ill take your "technique" and do it the way youve done your bridges.
  24. Looks awesome! I was thinking of trying a few of these for the front door!
  25. He charged me 3$ more to plane them down to 1/2inch. finished wood - One peice has a very nice natural live bark end on it - Might work that into something nice in the end.
