  2. Beautiful work Annie! Welcome from Ashland, VA. Everyone on here is very helpful.
  3. No experience with the Grizzly scroll saws but do have two Grizzly bandsaws that I have had for years. Both of the bandsaws have been very good for me with no problems at all. I once called Grizzly for another manual for one of the bandsaws a couple of years ago and it was sent out very quickly and the rep on the phone was very friendly and had good knowledge about the product. Best of luck in your scroll saw search.

  7. Rusty, Looks great, beautiful work! Richard Ashland, VA
  8. Jimmy, I have had the Dewalt 735x planer for 4 years now and love it, no problems at all. Yes a big investment but if taken care of should last you a lifetime and you will be amazed at how much you will use it once you have a planer. Best of luck with your decision and purchase.

  9. Kevin, Just finished a butternut live edge slab table for my wife last week. Sanded it to 400 grit and then applied 5 coats of minwax warm gloss polyurethane. I went over lightly with 000 steel wool between each coat, tack clothed it then applied the poly and repeated this process for all 5 coats. When completed it had a beautiful finish and just as beautiful as any epoxy resin that I have done and seen. Good luck with your table! Richard Ashland, VA
  10. Beautiful, beautiful work! Great job, you should be very proud of that piece.
  11. I have both the 9 inch and a 10 inch grizzly bandsaws and they have both been very good saws. I wouldn't pay $200 for that used saw when you can get a brand new saw with a warranty for not much more money. Like Ray mentioned above I would check out the Grizzly saws. Both of mine are 8-10 years old and have not had any problems with either one of them.
  12. Barb, Beautiful work, very nice job!
  13. Ralph, very very nice, keep up the beautiful work.
  14. Thanks for the sayings. I make hand carved signs in addition to scrolling so think I'll make the laundry saying for our laundry room door. Thanks a bunch!
  15. Jim, what beautiful work and such a nice gift for the grandchildren. Wishing you many many more years of happy scrolling.
  16. Don, Welcome from Ashland, VA. Grew up just south of Erie, PA and did a lot of fishing in area creeks and Lake Erie in my younger days. You will enjoy scroll sawing and everyone on here is very helpful.

  18. Shaun, welcome from Ashland, VA. Everyone on here is very helpful.
  19. Purchased the Dewalt 735x about 5 years ago and have been very pleased with it and no problems at all. Have it on a cart with lockable castors and can roll it outside or in front of the door and the built in blower leaves very little mess inside. Is a bit more in $ than some of the others but very good quality and holding up fine.
  20. Everything looks great, nice, nice job! Have the frog on my to do list also.
