My information says the Makita has been discontinued with no replacement. In addition it doesn't have very good reviews. There is another scroll saw at Home Depot with much better reviews -the Ryobi 16". Also at Lowes is the Porter-Cable which has very good reviews. I would suggest you consider one of those.

Ask Steve a question. / Re: Shelf liner as pattern

using an ink jet printer without a clear coat on top will smear the ink as it is water soluble. Just use a lacquer clear coat in a spray can, let it dry for a few minutes and its good to go. Dry, protected and no smears.

Well done! I am curious, what did you use to cutout the bank hole being 3 1/2" thick. Or is it 2 or 3 parts glued together?

General Scroll Saw Talk / Re: Camera recomendation
« on: October 28, 2014, 06:25:42 pm »
Also in my experience almost any camera will take very good focused pictures. You just need to provide enough light, don't try to focus too close and hold the camera steady. Even cheap inexpensive cameras will do well in these conditions. If you don't want to abide by these restrictions, then spend more money and purchase a camera that you can adjust for these conditions.

when I see out of focus images it is usually because the camera is too close to the object and can't focus that closely. The solution is to back away until you get a good focus and take that picture, If you want a closer view use cropping software on the computer, its much better than trying to use electronic zoom in the camera.
