    I was having a terrible time with my EX 21 and blade slippage. Yesterday I took the set screws and thumb screws out of the blade holders, Put everything in Denatured Alcohol and wiped them off. They were very dirty. I then rubbed the faces of them on some sandpaper and reinstalled. It is much better now.

    Don't forget the router base for the dremel

    I have been using danish oil. Sometimes mineral oil or lemon oil

    I worry about the BLO getting into the fretwork areas and getting gummy. Then you get to have a dust magnet.

    I have the dremel drill press, and plunge router base. I also have a foot switch hooked to my dremel detail sander. I am currently wanting a third foot switch. I think I like footswitches.

    My husband and I moved to North Carolina in 2007. Before that we were born and raised in North East Ohio. I started woodworking soon after my last child left home. My kids ended up in North Carolina because of jobs. This is where we retired and I couldn't be happier. I have built many different things, Scrolling is my favorite. I don't build much else unless I need to anymore. My scroll saw is an EX 21. We ripped the carpet out of one of the spare room and put my saw in there. I love being able to scroll no matter the weather. My shop outside is not heated or air conditioned. My saw is hooked up to a dust collector. My name is Roberta.

    I put my saw inside a few years ago. Never regretted it.

    Step one. Back up slightly. Understand where and witch direction you want the teeth to end up. Your pivot finger needs to be directly behind the blade. Now, pressing your work against the back of the blade turn. You should hear no cutting during this. It is tricky, Practice where you have room to make a mistake.
