General Scroll Saw Talk / Excalibur knob problem
« on: February 23, 2012, 09:07:32 am »
The tension knob on the back of the saw turns by itself. Anyone have this problem and do you have a fix?

General Scroll Saw Talk / What thickness of wood
« on: February 14, 2012, 05:28:25 pm »
I'm going to do a fretwork piece with a lot of cutouts. I don't want to use plywood but instead I'm going to use ash. My question is pattern states to use 1/2 inch hardwood or 1/4 inch plywood, but I'm thinking of using 3/8 inch ash . Do you think that the 1/8 inch difference in thickness will add that much more strength to each cut out hole. Thanks for any help.

I used to have a pen to sign work and lost it someplace. I don't remember what brand it was. It was great because it didn't bleed when you put finish over it. Do any of you have a pen suggestion . Thanks for any help.

General Scroll Saw Talk / Make t-knob into round knob
« on: March 15, 2011, 06:49:51 pm »
f you have a knob like on the DeWalt and Excalibur you can take a small round tube like i piece off a medicine bottle and cast a round knob. You can get casting resin at hobby stores. A round knob is a lot easier to use. After market round knobs are costly. Just cut a small length of the tube, use car wax with carnuba wax in it as a release agent. Then hot glue it to a piece of plexiglass and put knob in it and pour resin just to cover black knob. Also you can grind knob down on both ends if you want a smaller round knob.

General Scroll Saw Talk / Excalibur top blade holder
« on: March 05, 2011, 02:18:05 pm »
Is anyone having trouble with the top blade holder? Holder slipping on blade be4fore or during cutting? I've done all the possible stuff to try to correct this and nothing works. Talked with Ray of Seyco and done all the things he said to do. Just wondering if any one else has a blade holder problem.

« on: October 05, 2010, 12:47:24 pm »
I have a project that I want to put in a frame and use flocking as the back round has some shapes. Not being good with colors I was wondering if you could give me some idea of color to use as a back round. The wood is going to be ash finished natural which will be a medium brown.I don't have a photo to submit as project is not cut yet, just getting everything together. Thanks for any help.
