General Scroll Saw Talk / Re: DeWalt 788 plus a Foot Switch

« on: May 29, 2010, 02:38:59 pm »

I do as you do Bud.  I have my switch covered in clear tape to keep the dust out.  It is left on all the time and I use the foot switch.  Been doing it for about 9 years and nothing bad has happened to my yeller saw.

The Coffee Shop / I have no idea how I got there....

« on: May 29, 2010, 01:06:44 pm »

from here.

I was minding my own business.  Sitting in my skivvies as I had gotten up at 7:00 and was going to boot my computer while I shave and shower etc.

I had forgotten to shut it down & I left it on last night so I sat down    --Hey.... no one can see me.

I happened onto a you tube video from a link posted in a message and started browsing---You know scrolling and workshops it's always kewl to see how others do things etc.

This thing came up and I just had to see.  Do not ask me why I have no clue.

Anyway for you faint at heart purists...do not click on this link it is rather graphic/risque.

This is not age appropriate either....Just a heads up.

If you dare go ahead but I warned you!

hey I warned you twice....ROFL..Cleaning my monitor..

Congrats!

Do not plug it in to a power source just yet.

First hook up the foot switch.  Turn on the switch on top of the arm.  Then cover it (the switch) with clear tape, to keep all dust out of the switch.

Now you can plug it into the wall!

Have fun!
