So I’m brand new to scroll sawing but had the opportunity to purchase an almost new jet 22” scroll saw for a fraction of the price. I’ve been having a blast learning and practicing.
So here goes my question, so I have been using Olsen blades and have been doing puzzles with a double reverse skip tooth, the problem I’ve had is that the reverse teeth are located so far down on on the blade that they don’t come up above the table on the stroke so I’m not getting the benefit of the reverse tooth and getting quite a bit of tear out. I’ve tried to set the blade as high in the holder as possible but it still isn’t coming up in the stroke. Am I doing something wrong with this saw or do I need to use a different blade, or brand of blade ? Hope this made sense
Thanks
Adam
