Me, for my puzzle making I'm using archival inkjet prints hot-mounted to 1/4" with a protective laminate over the top but that's a different kind of set up than doing a cool card for a friend or two.Not trying to get you to give away state secrets, but can you speak a bit more about the "protective laminate" you mention? What is this?
I too have the excalibur 16 inch saw, which I am selling as of now. I also find the jet easier to change blades. once you get the hang of putting the blade in the lower holder you don't even have to look.I would assume you are a bottom feeder? (I hate that term!)
I get them at the Windfield collectionVery nice box!
I use Excalibur and Jet scroll saws and found the blades best for me with those machines are FD [flying dutchman] and SharktoothI have not heard of Sharktooth. Where do you get them?
Let us know if the shipping is reasonable.The part, with shipping and exchange, came to just shy of $70.00CDN.
They kept breaking in two about an inch from the bottom clamp. The upper clamp didn't want to hang on to them, either.Breaking number 3 blades? Wow, those are much thicker than the 2/0R blades I was having trouble with. Agreed, maybe a bad batch?
The 5 R's worked fine...no issues on same project, so I was thinking it was a bad batch of 3's.
Nope, not this time-went through about half a dozen blades in about an hour.What do you mean "went through"? What happened to the blades?
I know that there was some complaints on other web sites about Pegas blades. I think there was a a bad batch. Not sure the size the problem.I purchased one package of 12 to test them. When they worked, they worked very well.
Contact who you bought them from to see it they will replace them.
