  1. Welcome from Montana, enjoy your new saw.
  2. Great ideas all, they look really retro!
  3. Very nice, nice choice on the stain.
  4. Good luck!
  5. Nice cut!
  6. This is a pattern by Frank that I cut from aspen and mounted on red transparent acrylic, frame is stained alder. I then added a light string to the back.
  7. Thanks for the replies, I just could not resist using my router to make a one piece frame. Think I will take Franks advice and build that saw frame sled!
  8. I am working on a project and decided to mount it in a rectangle one piece frame. I set up my bit and bearing in my router for the rabbet and all went well except the corners where the bearing does not allow a 90degree cut. I used a small chisel and exacto knife but the corners are not especially good looking. Any tips or suggestions? Is there a tool for finishing the corners? Thanks in advance for any help.
  9. I have found that sanding prior to cutting is a big time saver. My planer does a great job when I am getting my hardwoods to thickness, I can usually go straight to a 220 grit after planing. I have also become fond of using the torch to remove the fuzzies, you just have to be careful.
  10. Welcome, tons of good info here. I started with a used DeWalt, gave $200 for it and did the upgrades, Pegas chucks, lifter arm etc. I have been really happy with it and so far I have been able to do projects I want.
  11. Yeah, it is strange, maybe they took a long vacation?
  12. Sounds like speed controller, I have left two messages and a couple of emails over the last week trying to contact someone at Seyco but no response. Are they still in business?
  13. I like that old wood, well done.
  14. Simply gorgeous, will look great when displayed.
  15. Might work when I want extra shop time, I can cover myself with it and wife wont see me!
  16. I got the electronics through Rockler, I have used the kits on other projects and they are OK for small units especially if you baffle them well.

    Nice, I would also like to know the name of font.
  18. Cant wait to see all the pieces, will look great!
  19. It is 26 x 25, It will be a while before I tackle anything this large again!!!
  20. Have not posted for a bit, finally got health back enough to get back to saw and finish this, made it from 1/4BB with a BB backer. Biggest project I have done. Thank goodness for FD New Spiral 3/0 blades
  21. I have a cutech spiral head planer. They have several models, you can view them online. I have been very happy with it, especially since it uses inserts instead of knives.
  22. Great work, I like the backing choice!
  23. I had a issue with 2/0 blades for a while . I have a DeWalt with the Pegas heads with the Pegas clamp. Works great on everything except 2/0 blades which break as soon as I push the white lever to tension. I discovered that if I leave the Pegas lever down and use the DeWalt tensioner on 3-4 the blades do not break when applying tension and I can cut faitly thick hardwoods with no problem. I don't know why but that's just how it is on my machine.
  24. Looks great, I am a big fan of cherry wood.
  25. Beautiful, if you dont mine me asking-do you cut the circular part on your scroll saw or some other way? I have a lot of trouble making my circles perfect on my scroll saw and was wondering if I should use a router circle jig for the circles?
