    I would wrap it in some cloth, like rags, wash cloths, my husbands underwear, and then stick it in a coffee cup for stability and then drill a hole as close to the center as I could. Add screw eye.

    I first dip my trivets in mineral oil. Then set on a rack to drip for a few days. Then I wipe off and then wipe with a mineral oil and beeswax mix. Wait overnight and buff. Mine has been on my table and in use for a few years. Too much beeswax in that mix and you will find yourself picking dry wax out of all the nook and crannies. I do a similar process for cutting boards. Only more mineral oil and more soaking.

    I have been cutting some puzzles from 3/4 popular using a #3. The hardest part is going slow while cutting the puzzle ‘keys’. Go slow enough so the bottom of the blade keeps up with the top of the blade. Sometimes I do have to do some sanding, but I’m getting better!

    I just ordered the book from Fox Chapel. I hope I can cut it as well!

    I always recommend the Scroll Saw Workbook. I have a very old edition.

    Beautiful cut! Awesome that Sue Mey asked you!

    The biggest advantage of more expensive saws is because they don’t take pinned blades, the blade changes for the pinless blades is easy and pinless blades means smaller pilot holes. Check out Carole Rothman’s book on bowls on the scroll saw.

    Remember, I was born and raised in NE Ohio. So very different it very true!

    I speak ONE language, and do THAT poorly.

    We go to NC Outer Banks most years. Myrtle Beach is very active. I can’t live there, I would never be anywhere else but the beach.

    Good idea.

    There was a mill near the town we used to live in Ohio. I used to go there to buy their unbleached flour to make bread. Every time I see one I think of that.

    Did you try adjusting the tension at all?

    Welcome

    Actually, I’m not sure right now. It was in the pile of “I’ll print this to cut later”! I gotta clean up some piles and quit doing that. ( yeah ok). I will try to figure it out.

    It’s time for me to make Christmas ornaments. Here is one. Pattern from Scroll Saw Woodworking abs Crafts magazine. Wood is 1/4” flame box elder.

    Yes! Either one! MUCH better saw. Dewalt 788 is my personal choice.

    The colors are cool.

    I make a lot of English mistakes and it’s the only language I speak! Good job.

    If they are spread, they are done.

    Seyco does sell a Quick Clamp renewal kit. Replaces just the parts that actually grip the blade both top and bottom. BE SURE TO REPLACE BOTH RIGHT AND LEFT SIDE OR BLADE SLIPPAGE MAY NOT BE CORRECTED. This is the small parts located inside the blade clamps. I always keep a spare set. It might help until the Pegas clamp assembly comes in. Maybe.
