  1. Update -- Now I flipped it over and zip tied my dust collection loc-line to it.
  2. Simply breathtaking. It makes me feel patriotic. Great work.
  3. I currently have 8 - 3d printers and along with my daughter run a little shop of mostly 3d printed items on Etsy. If anyone needs any help in this department, I'd be glad to help.
  4. I scored a piece that I think might have been a table in a previous life. It was amongst some cypress lumber listed on Facebook marketplace that I picked up an hour or so from home in South Louisiana. I thought that since the cypress was recovered from an old home on the bayou that pelicans were in order. So here it is.
  5. Here's my set up. I use the valve on the bottom to restrict the airflow because when your board doesn't have many holes in it has a tendency to suck to the table making it difficult to move the board. The valve allows for regulating this. The top is a loc-line fitting. It has come to my attention since I mentioned this 3d printed fitting initially that some or maybe even all excalibur saws don't have the 4 bolts like my king industrial saw does, so I'm not sure if it would help anyone that doesn't have a king industrial saw.
  6. Flying dutchman and Pegas mainly -- I have used Olson and they aren't terrible. Anything is better than the ones that come with the saw. LOL
  7. Years ago I had a craftsman scrollsaw and I flipped the hold down upside down and out of the way, leaving it in case I needed it someday. There is sat until I wore the saw out and in the trash it went with the saw, still in the flipped over position. Now I just remove them before ever turning the saw on.
  8. It's tiring holding your foot in one position for extended periods of time (for me) so I use the on/off switch style.
  9. I didn't take a picture of it, but I have a king industrial 16" that I designed and 3d printed a better option that bolts to the existing holes. I'm assuming that it would work on excaliburs and other similar saws. When I get home maybe I can remember to snap a picture of it. I thought about adding it to my etsy shop so folks could order it, I'd list it at a price to just cover my plastic and shipping costs if I did.
