I have the Ridgid and love them, bought a combo kit at Home Depot when they were on sale and they came with 2 extra batteries. If you do buy Ridgid make sure you register the product online to get the lifetime warranty

I wonder if this guy has permission to resell or redistribute these books and patterns. Somehow I doubt it. Even if it is a great deal I wouldn't give him a cent.

Hey Brent. Good to see another one from Ontario on here. I live about 45 min to the north east of you I'm in Angus. Kurt

I had that issue a few times and it was always the switch. Just had to blow the dust out and it worked. I ended up buying a foot switch and never had that issue again. Kurt

This is what i did. I have the saw in my shop(a room in the garage) and the dust collector in the garage with all the tubing going through the wall. I bought a remote power switch so i could turn it on and off from in the shop. I can hear the dust collector but it doesn't bother me. I just turn up the radio

I got hooked on the scroll saw when my wife wanted the words Live, Love, Laugh made out of wood to hang on the wall. She had seen some in a local store for $25 each. I took at look at them in the store and they very cheaply made. I told her I could make them for less and they would look better. At the time I had no idea how I was going to do it as I was not a woodworker . I made my first set of words using a jig saw but there was way too much sanding involved, so it was back to the drawing board. I discovered the scroll saw and I made another set of the words and I was hooked. The words are still on our wall.

I agree with Kevin they would make a great looking clock.

Here is what i do to avoid this. Sign up for a Google account or Microsoft account or a Dropbox account and store your patterns on a free online storage. Here is how much free storage i have with them OneDrive 5G, Google Drive 15G, Drop Box 2G Just these three give me 22 G of free online storage. That's tons of room to backup your patterns. Kurt

I was never a woodworker, if i wanted something built from wood i would just ask my dad to make it. I started woodworking when my wife wanted the words Live Love and Laugh to hang on the wall. She seen some in a store that were made in china and were $25 each. I said for $75 I could make some and they will look better then the one in the store. The first set of words i used a jig saw to cut them out but there was way too much sanding involved so after some research I found the scrollsaw. I made another set of the words with the scrollsaw and fell in love with scrolling

What type of glue are you using? The only time that happened to me was when I changed the glue I was using. I bought can of the cheaper Elmers glue and it would happen all the time. I went back to the 3M77 and never had the issue again. There was another discussion about this just a little while ago.

Jules, welcome and great to have another one from Ontario, where in Ontario are you?. Just keep checking Kijiji every day. I've gotten some good deals for scroll saws on there. I have found 2 DW788 type1 for $150(or $125 sorry can't remember the exact price) and I found an EX21 for $300. I will keep an eye out for any good deals. Kurt

I had the same issue with that glue. Pay the extra for the 3M77 and you wont have the problem. Kurt

You are not alone on this one. I have done it as well. I bet we are not alone.

Once I finish the "Honey Do List" I am going to put the finishing touches on this sign and hang it up on the house. Not sure how it will stand up to the Canadian winters but it was a fun project. Then I am going to to try my hand at a couple of dog puzzles, cant wait to start them.

I started out with a Mastercraft but the things kept breaking. I went through 4 of these saws before I finally asked for my money back. My next saw was a Dremel 1800 not bad but the vibration in the thing was horrible. Found a used DW788 Type 1 for$125 and gave the Dremel away. Liked the DW so much I found another one for a backup saw. Loved the DW's until I came across a hardly used Green EX21. I managed to talk the guy down to $350. This is the saw i use the most now and love it. I still have one of the DW's as a backup but still use it when the weather is nice and I want to scroll outside.

I installed the DRIcore in my shop and it made a big difference. I also put some laminate flooring on top of the DRIcore that was left over from a job. It can get pretty cold up here in the winter so anything I can do to keep the heat in and the cold out helps.

I tried the Elmers once and had the same issues. The pattern kept lifting, I didn't even finish the can before I went back to the 3M.
