    If you ask 5 scrollers, you will get 5 different answers. I will buy Flying Dutchman from Mikes Workshop, Sharktooth from Scrollers Online, and On Line blades from Judy Gale Roberts.

    If I lived there, I wouldn’t be in my shop or house ever! We are around 2 hours away. Close enough for a day trip, far enough to not go every day.

    That was pretty neat.
  4. Roberta Moreton
    I will try this.
  5. Roberta Moreton
    That was fantastic!

    I do like the black metal. I think the wooden ones are too big.

    I don’t understand. BEFORE staining?
  8. Roberta Moreton
    I posted the jig. Be sure you thread It in straight.

    I have missed seeing you!

    After you download the app you will put in your zip code. They tell you what stores you can use. We were not real comfortable with the pick up thing. My car is very small and a hatchback. I don’t want people that close.

    I use a drafting chair for my EX21. My saw sits high. The drafting chair is very high. I use a bar stool for my Dewalt

    We are of the age that we are on the endangered species list. I found Instacart. I order my groceries, someone shops for me, while texting so I can approve what ever replacement might be necessary, I pay through the app. Groceries are delivered to my porch. NO CONTACT, NO GOING OUT. I may never go into another grocery store, they also do CVS. Now, if I could just find toilet paper.

    I do not recommend beginning with spirals. Start with flat blades. Since your saw does take pinned blades, they will be the easiest to install. You WILL want to move to pinless for fine fretwork. I think reverse and skip tooth to start. Sizes 3.

    What about this? My husband uses it with a right angle drill for sanding his bowls on the lathe. It uses Velcro sandpaper, sold by Klingspor’s woodworking shop. It is what I am planning on trying to use when I try her bowls 2" Flexi-Pad $12.95 Item #: FP50200 GO TO CART BACK... MORE ABRASIVE DISCS CONTINUE SHOPPING

    I would mask the bodies and frame and spray or paint the butterfly a metallic color, gold or copper. Paint the bodies black. Danish oil or BLO the frame and use a colored oval backer, just behind the oval part of the frame. Possibly swirled blues and white.

    But it works different on the Dewalt. I don’t see how it would function right. The tension is applied from the back on my EX correct? and from the front on the Dewalt.

    I put a set on the Dewalt. The recommendation is to buy just the Dewalt style clamp. Use the regular Dewalt tensioner. It works great.

    Thank you!

    Glad to see you!

    I have tried many things, solid black wood grain contact paper, paint, Danish Oil on cardboard, luan, and Baltic birch. Now I just paint a piece of 1/8” Baltic birch and use that.

    I use acrylic paints for some decorative pieces. I also use water based varnish over top. The water based varnish doesn’t yellow, so the colors stay true.

    I have to agree. I bought stuff from lock line, we got it all hooked up....I do fret work and I ripped all that stuff off. It’s in a box somewhere.
  24. Roberta Moreton
    Not going to that one. I do have plans to go to the Fox Chapel one in May. Lancaster PA. Stopping in Baltimore to visit my granddaughter on the way home.

    Very well done!
