    As is should be. I am speaking as a wife for 49 1/2 years.

    I realize this is true. However, my EX 21 lived it’s first several years with the white mark on the knob at about “one O’Clock. Then I had problems. I did the Hold it with a rubber band thing. Ok for a while. Now the knob likes to be close to 10:30. I can’t explain it. As long as it is working, I’m not complaining.

    I move the knob in the back just a tiny bit to lower the front just a tiny bit. If it’s still not quite where I want it I move the knob until it is. Sometimes breaking the rules is actually OK

    WOW! That’s really cool!

    I made this a while back. SSWW&Craft Magazine.

    My scroll saw is in a spare room in the house. I scroll when I please. My wood shop is not heated or air conditioned. I regret not adding insulation every day. I’m in NC. I plan on going out to work on my bench in the mornings.

    Very beautiful.

    My first thought was “Time to MOVE!” Nice cut. Creepy.

    So, positive, boats at sea, negative, dancer, both, girl with flowers and butterflies. Compound cuts will also be positive. Interesting that I never considered this aspect before.

    I think Pegas makes blade clamps for the Jet scroll saw.

    That is NOT the one I saw.

    It looks like it takes both pinned and pinless blades. The adapter uses a thumb screw. Unique design allows blade to be installed in 2 directions. ??? I’m sorry, but I think is in the same class as every pinned blade saw.

    I think it makes it a bit easier to read.

    I was born and raised in NE Ohio! The weather is much nicer here in NC. Glad to meet you.

    They are adorable!

    I don’t do this, because I don’t know how and I don’t understand most of what you said. I pretty much take what I get. If I want it resized I go to Office Depot and use their copy machine (I do understand how to do THAT).

    I personally think that you want a band saw. It is heavier duty than a scroll saw. You CANNOT do interior cuts. You can cut thick material, you can resaw. Keep thinking about what project you want to do and what tool will help the most.

    I use clear shelf liner and full sheet labels. When I have to use paper and spray, I wait a couple of minutes, attach and smooth down with an old credit card.

    I have the Ridgid. Bought it as soon as it came out. Around 14 years ago!

    You want the widest blade you can get for your saw. WoodMizer is supposed to be a good brand.
  21. Roberta Moreton
    That is a beautiful cut. All that grill work! Wow!

    It also has to do with how much pressure you’re putting on the blade. I have had trouble with 3/4” thick puzzles because of this. Too much pressure resulting in puzzles that only go together from one side because of a tapered cut. Boxes are even harder because they are thicker. I have accomplished a few boxes, but they are not my favorite to do.

    It looks like an extra large grain line or something. With the grain running that direction there is nothing you can do that I see.

    To fix a cupped piece you need a jointer, not a planer. A planer will press the wood down and remove wood, when the wood exits the planer it will just cup again. A planer makes each side parallel, not flat. Wetting your wood and weighing it down might flatten it.
