    Yes I want to paint the colors where they go. I could paste the pattern onto 1/8" wood and cut each color out and trace that onto my finish wood ( backer board) than Paint 2025Stevegood Bluejay good.pdf

    When I cut out my pattern . I prime the wood and set the pattern on the wood with carbon paper underneath and trace that out . So I can paint the colors on where they are suppose to go. I don't have the talent to do free hand.. Is there a better way to do this than carbon paper.?

    Inkscape.. Why is it that when I open Inkscape a page shows up and I click FILE/ OPEN and it opens another page on top of the one I dont need. so I dont want the page underneath. How do I fix that? Also if I want to move the object on the page to centre it, around by clicking the pointer it moves the page and not the object within the page.? Jim IMG_0001.svg2 copies.svg

    Hi Don. I did buy from lee valley many years ago. They no longer carry them.

    I have bought these blade holders in the past from Lee Valley or Busy Bee but they no longer carry them. I cant seem to find them anywhere. The size fits the tray that I have all my scroll saw blades in. Does anyone know where I can purchase a pack or so. Amazons size is thicker so they won't fit in my tray holder. The size I need is 5./12 to 6" by 1/2"wide . Any help would be appreciated. Thanks

    My saw has been giving me problems lately. The tension lever at the front of the saw loosens off after about 10 seconds. and also if I try to run it without a blade in it , it still loosens off. I put some tape around the lever, but that's not very productive. anyone else have that problem. Jim

    Do they sell small cans of gel stain, or is it liters? I was using water based stain and also minwax oil stain . Thanks Jim

    Sealing the back before cutting sound like a good ideal. I will have to try that. Thanks Jim
