Sound good, I will make a few test pieces and see what looks best.
News: Had a couple issues with the forum today. 1/19/2017. I believe I have them corrected now. Let me know if you have any trouble. Thanks.

General Scroll Saw Talk / How to make fine lines ?
« on: November 20, 2016, 07:25:39 am »
Looking at the Guardian angel pattern in the catalog.
The lines between the angels wings would they just be straight cuts with a thin blade ?

Display looks good. It would be a interesting project to enlarge the coffin and bone man to life size.
That should get some attention from the neighbors

Not machine specific but unless you know how to make repairs buying a used tool is always a gamble. Like buying a used car in that there usually is some reason it is being sold and there is no odometer on a saw so no way to know what mileage it has on it

Not sure what make yours is but here is a manual for a Grizzley 1x42 (I have this model) and while different from yours it does have a adjustment for the belt take up, yours may be missing a few parts

Ask Steve a question. / Re: Toy Box
« on: July 15, 2016, 07:27:37 pm »
Talk of toy brings back a pleasant memory when my son was young his grandfather was paneling his rooms (it was the early 80's) any how he made a toy box out of the same panel he used for the room. Not only did it look good but blended perfectly with the room.

No one was suggesting you replace the saw but the blade should not drop. Maybe a simple adjustment. If its a 20 year old griz then I guess its a contractor style saw so unplug the saw and get under it see what needs to be adjusted. Or see if you can get a manual the saw, most likely will need a tuneup after 20 years. I would 1st contact Grizzly's customer service and see if they can send you a manual. IIf not look for a similar saw on their site these saws have not changed that much in 20 years and download a copy of a manual for a similar saw.
Here is a link to a basic tuneup might not solve your problem but this is worth a read for most table saw owners

Not sure what table saw you have but there is usually a crank handle to adjust the blade height. It should not change on its own. If it is loose you need to adjust or repair the saw.

I looked at the manual it has some interesting features but seeing a price online of almost $1000.00 and as I only cut for fun, no selling I think I would stick with my dewalt

I also started with a ryobi its about 20 yrs old and in the basement on a shelf with other tools that have been upgraded. I now use a delwalt and as you have found out a better saw is more fun to work with and fun is what it is about.
