welcome to the art of scroll sawing, hope you are as rewarded as I am with this hobby. poor blade clamping can be very frustrating Steve has designed aids to increase the tightening of a blade. I found it to be very helpful on my entry level saw. many years ago.

Hi to you, Jay. from South Korea Welcome . I have not learned how to design patterns but spend many hours scroll sawing patterns I find online or get someone to make a pattern for me. Right now I am looking for a pattern from a picture of a Ferrarri race car that someone sent me.

Hi and welcome to this forum, Your cutting definetly deserves an "at a boy". Scrolling comes with much satisfaction and often times frustration I have an old DW788 that after a good lube job and new blade clamps does a really good job however on occaission the motor will surge especially on start-up ( probably a pending circuit board issue), so I purchased a Seyco which is now my go to saw. I had another brand with a fixed arm that gave no end to frustration. Sounds like your saw repairs will be more costly than and Frustrating than buying a different saw. Don has just replied to you about King Canada, they sell the excellsor, the dealer here in my province tells me in U.S it is sold as a Jet.

this has always been on my to-do list, I did buy the seyco dust extractor. Works well for me, quieter than a shop vac

General Scroll Saw Talk / Re: Pegas 21" Scroll Saw or Seyco ST-21 Swing Tilt Scroll Saw/ Which one?
« on: October 25, 2019, 08:56:49 am »
can't comment on Pegas but do have the Seyco and type 1 Dewalt like the Seyco for its arm lift, its higher clearance, table size and the arm tilt rather than table tilt.I like the Dewalt for its up front blade tension. Both saws are real dolls to cut on. as to cutting on an angle I can't recall ever tilting more than a few degrees.

General Scroll Saw Talk / Re: Has Anyone Made Signs...?
« on: October 25, 2019, 08:41:15 am »
I haven't made these specific signs but contrast between any dark and light color works for me. I do portraits from baltic birch and an mdf backer board painted/ dyed black is a nice contrast

General Scroll Saw Talk / Re: Small 2/0 blades twists
« on: October 25, 2019, 08:33:39 am »
I find the same problem doing puzzles from 1/4 inch baltic plus a1/8 sacrificepiece. 2/0 blades twist, wander and cause extreme frustration so I use a no.1 pegas modified under high tension and slow speed.

Ask Steve a question. / Re: Dewalt Dust Collection
« on: October 05, 2019, 08:48:48 am »
I purchased the small, quiet dust collector from Seyco. It has a magnetic inport that is position under the table near the blade. Wouldn't be with out it. Much quieter and easier to attach than adapting the shop vac
