  1. The most important part of this is is it a bevel cut? That's the only time it matters.
  2. I never take special orders. To many problems.
  3. Pull the thing out, flatten it on some sandpaper, you are done.
  4. Worst cut on a scroll saw happened when I was cutting a compound cut without a clamp. The piece jumped. Took 2 bandaids to stop the blood!
  5. I hated my EX 21 when I first got it. I like it fine now. I got rid of my Dewalt (type 1) and had no choice. I HAD to figure it out!
  6. What would work on an iPad for this? I no longer have a computer.
  7. Nice find!
  8. I went to that site, it was very cool!
  9. I no longer use the blue tape. Easier to use some mineral spirits to take the pattern off if needed. I do use packing tape over top. I keep scotch tape nearby, just in case.
  10. I use a number 2 or 3. Go slow vinyl is brittle.
  11. If you do fretwork, go with the Seyco, or the Dewalt.
  12. I do have a square reader. it does not cost a lot to use it and, it does improve sales because most people don't carry cash anymore.
  13. If this makes you happy, it is fine. If you think you might try the craft show circuit, you have to consider the cost involved. I have tried a consignment store. They charged me a monthly fee plus a percentage of my sale. I think what you are doing is great!
  14. ​A jar, even a mason jar does not create an air tight seal. That happens during the canning process. Just a girls point of view.
  15. With my Dewalt, I got a foot switch and covered the on/off switch with packing tape. It is the best thing you can do with that saw.
  16. ​I saw in a spare bedroom. Ripped up the carpet, painted the floor. I have an Excalibur with dust collection. It works ok. I also have a sand flea, It also has dust collection. I am not obsessive about it, I don't hear any complaints from my husband. I am thinking about getting some of those large rubber squares to put on the floor to dampen the noise. My husband doesn't mind. I do sweep, vacuum, etc.
  17. I bought my EX 21 last year on sale. With a stand and footswitch for less than $1000.00
  18. # 1 is my favorite.
  19. The elm worked well. I want to get better before I tackle spiral blades again.
  20. I use flat blades. I used to use spiral, a good friend of mine told me to learn flat, they give a much better cut and finish. Now, I have a hard time with spiral.
  21. this giraffe is a Steve Good pattern on elm.
  22. ummm...Packing tape? I would put packing tape on the top and bottom of the piece. JMTC
