HELLO OUT THAR....OH TO READ POSTS SUCH AS THE ABOVE REALLY BRINGS BACK MEMORIES.
EVEN AT ONE POINT I WAS SERIOUSLY THINKING OF GETTING OUT OF SCROLLING AND STICKING
TO MAKING CABINETS ETC.  Then I read a post from who is now a Good Friend.  WHAT WAS POSTED
READ THAT HE USES A FD-UR #1 BLADE FOR 90% OF ALL CRAFTS HE MAKES.  EVEN UP TO ONE INCH STOCK.
NOW WE ARE TALKING ABOUT THE SOFTER WOODS AND ALSO PLYWOOD'S.  OH YEA ....ONLY BALTIC BIRCH FOR ME....

WELL LONG STORY SHORT.  THIS WAS AROUND 3 YEARS AGO AND THERE JUST ....IS NOT.... MUCH of THEM FUZZES.
SANDING WITH SAY 220 GRIT CLEANS THE CUTS UP BEAUTIFULLY.  Thanks for reading....  Danny  :+}

    BEEN USING FIREFOX FOR MANY YEARS.  UP UNTIL APPROXIMATELY A MONTH AGO EVERYTHING WORKED

    PERFECTLY....   SOUND AND PICTURE.  I PROBABLY DID SOMETHING I SHOULDN'T OF.  SURE IS A PAIN TO

    WATCH A VIDEO THIS WAY.   Help....

That's what I use and had what I think is the same problem based on your description. Here's what my son-in-law did to fix my unit:

Here  is the sequence and change:
Tools
        Options
                  Advanced
                                he un-checked "Use Hardware Acceleration when Available"
                                                 finally he closed the browser and opened a 'new' window

NOW I AM HAPPY....   Danny  :+}

General Scroll Saw Talk / Re: Hot Blade and Hot Wood

« on: August 25, 2015, 03:49:16 pm »

By George....This has been a Very Interesting and Entertaining subject.  My Thanks to ALL....  But my Seriousness bit.
     Like it was already posted I also use my Favorite blade on most any type of wood.  Have to be reasonable when
     using a Hard Wood.  Would change to another UR blade.  But I use the FDUR #1 on 90% or everything I cut. 
     This blade will Track that line like it had eyes.  Circle or Straight line.  Have used the others  #3 and #5 and my
     Sincere, experienced feelings is that they do not cut and follow that line better than the #1.  Will use this blade
     and have....up to 1.25 inches thick.  Lots of Compound Ornament cutting lately.  Great looking Lil Bird Houses.
                                              Any how this is my 13 cents worth.  Hope you all enjoyed it.            Danny  :+}

I have given about everything I have read hear a try.  Also the tips I read in the Scroll Mag. 
Painters tape I gave up years ago after using this method for many years.  Packing tape I
never did get used to.  Didn't last long before I quit using it.  A member of our Forum gave
me a rundown on his way and after trying it I found I liked it. 

Sand the wood to at least 120 grit.  Use a good spray glue to the back of the pattern and
apply to the wood blank.  When finished cutting give the pattern a Spray of Spirits.  Within
a minute the pattern lifts off in one piece.  Wipe the blank with a clean cloth.  Let dry and
finish.    This is my 13 cents and I will always stick to it.....................Danny  :+}

Your pattern for THE LAST SUPPER sounds like the one I have cut a couple times.  Yes its LONGER than
the reach of my scroll saw.  The Designer suggested cutting the blank to make two pieces and afterwards
gluing them back together.  I did this and one would have to HUNT to see the glue line.  Just my 2 cents....  Danny  :+}
