  16. How I got here? When I was a child I asked my grandfather to teach me. He told me to go upstairs and have my grandmother teach me to cook and sew and stuff. When I was in Jr And High schools, I had to take home ec because girls weren’t allowed to take shop classes. (Girls weren’t allowed to wear pants until I was in high school!) My husband didn’t have any woodworking experience, but he did find a used craftsman Scroll saw and brought it home for me. He also started buying tools that he thought I should have. Tablesaw, jigsaw, planer, etc. I went to the library a lot! When we retired and moved to NC I found a great group that not only has an on-line woodworking group, but a group that goes around the state to teach a little woodworking to others. I wanted to do that. They put me on the scroll saw. I loved it. I practiced and found that it is my favorite type of woodworking! I still build other things but my scroll Saw is the best! Did I mention that I now teach Scroll Saw to others in the club?
  17. Klingspor’s Woodworking Shop is my go to place. They do mail order too.
  18. Actually I am liking the red
  19. I like that color!
  20. When I put the Vaseline on mine, I release the lever, put a dab on my finger, wipe most of that back off, put in on the lever, work it back and forth a few times, then wipe it back off. That usually enough to give it a good cleaning and leave enough ‘grease’ on the lever.
  21. The sapwood in walnut is that color.
  22. I have done a test. When the wood I was cutting started burning, I added packing tape to the piece without removing the blade. I just stopped, taped and resumed cutting. The result was amazing!
  23. That is why I am going to buy the upgrade clamps. I used to topfeed my Dewalt, my EX doesn’t like it.
