Computer questions / Magic wand

« on: August 02, 2011, 08:20:09 pm »

I find this magic wand useful in scanning scroll saw patterns out of books etc.
It is a hand held scanner.

I thought it might be useful to everyone else on here as well.

In no way this is an ad for magic wand.  If you want to find the website please google magic wand.

Ask Steve a question. / about the knocking when i speed up the dw788 past number 7

« on: May 09, 2011, 05:09:48 pm »

I just got the new chucks and thumb screws today from dewalt for my scroll saw dw788 type 2 scroll saw.  


I'm getting a little head of myself.

but this is what's up.  I have took this saw and had it look over and for some reason I can't get the speed past 7 without it chatter.  It cuts lot better when it is cutting at the full speed.  I have not install the new chucks and thumb screws but I read somewhere that the new chucks allow more back to front motion.  And on the new chucks the space between the thumb screw and the set screw there is more space between them then the ones that came with the scroll saw.  

thanks hope to have a reply soon.
I'm getting sick of this scroll saw and i'm about to quit doing scrolling and sell this dewalt scroll saw.  this is crap I thought that dewalt built better tools....  

Ps also breaking blades  I use the olson blades #3 and on the dewalt scroll saw I set the tension to 2 and and half.

Before you replaace the thmbscrews that hold the blade in the clamps on your dewalt 788 spray a little penetrating oil such as wd40 onto the spinning pieces at the end if those pieces don't spin it can be difficult to tighten a blades properly often a little penetrating oil will loosen up the stuck pieces wipe off the execess oil before trying to clamp a blade the oil can cause your blades to slip
