You might also consider plugging the tool in and depressing the start button for improved cutting. It's really slow if you just try to move that piece up and down against the blade....

Re: I'm Baaaaaack!!!!!

Don Looks around secretly - stops moving the scroll saw up and down, and unclamps the board from the workbench.

I knew there had to be an easier way.......

Enjoy the DeWalt...I know I do when I get down to visit folks. Though my Delta does a fine job at home.

Re: the CCNA....good job!...now imagine all the computers in my workroom (there's 5 and I live alone - I just get out of control building them sometimes)..thank goodness for wireless access so I can get out of that room and somewhere cooler!

Re: I'm Baaaaaack!!!!!

Now see, this would have been way more fun than ACL's and NAT this summer.



OK....before I place my order for the blades...what is the suggestion on sizes?
Typically, what sizes are used the most and what sizes the least?
How much do the spiral blades get used?
I have read theories from every other size to just 3 total.

I am thinking that I want to try some of those portraits like I saw and do things for pen blanks.
Eventually, I will get into inlay.
