  1. I REALLY like that!
  2. There is a scrollsaw club that meets at the Winston-Salem Klingspor’s store. You might want to check it out. I don’t know the days or times, but the people at Klingspor’s would know. They’re nice folks.
  3. The edges will react like end grain
  4. Don’t fret over the small stuff
  5. I have my saw set VERY high, different reasons. I bought a drafting stool from Office Depot. It is padded like an office chair, swivels, has 5 casters and a back. The casters are locking, which is good because I have to ‘hop’ up to the seat! I love it.
  6. I also use the colored danish oils.
  7. If I was to replace my EX21 tomorrow, it would be with a Pegas.
  8. It’s sold. ($500)
  9. I tried Pegas, went back to Flying Dutchman and Olson. It’s a personal thing.
  10. Really? I’m in North Carolina too! Between Fayetteville and Cary. Where are you?
  11. My friend has a Hegner and just bought a Pegas. Her Hegner is now for sale.
  12. You can get Flying Dutchman metal cutting blades.
  13. Yeah, just put them on. Be sure the blade is centered at the top and bottom and done!
  14. Pine is just not worth the effort. Too much sap.
    Very nice patterns!
  15. Do NOT use a reverse tooth blade. DO use a small blade or a puzzle blade.
  16. That depends, the Jet is bottom feed because the bottom blade needs to be put is a holder first. Then the holder is placed in a clip at the bottom. Now you raise the arm and bottom feed the blade. I believe the Pegas blade chuck fixes this and allows top feeding.
  17. You need to hold the wood down as well as guide it through the cut.
  18. I use clear shelf paper and don’t usually need clear packing tape. If I do decide to use it I use a thick type. There are different thicknesses out there. I look for duck brand. You do still have to be careful to get it on with no wrinkles. I usually only use it when cutting thicker projects like boxes. Nothing complex. The clear shelf liner also gets rid of the need for blue tape, and leaves no sticky residual unless you have left it on there for quite some time. (Several days)
  19. I was also there in the NCWW booth. It was a great show. I came home exhausted.
  20. I use mineral oil
  21. Cedar or white oak or cypress
  22. I will also be there!
  23. Pawn shop, Craig’s list. Something that doesn’t take pinned blades.
