Sounds like things worked out well for you! I am sure you will enjoy it! The manuals can be found online, but if you have any trouble, let me know and I will email you a pdf.

I can't tell you the difference, but I have a 226vs and love it. It is my 2nd Hawk as I used to have a 16 inch model. Combine that saw with Flying dutchman blades (and the occasional Olsen PGT for thick projects) and there isn't much you can't do. $600 doesn't sound like a bad price either, but if its on Cl you can likely talk them down some to.

General Scroll Saw Talk / Re: Air Compressor Opinions
« on: November 28, 2013, 12:39:40 pm »
If possible find an oiled compressor. The oil free are much much noisier. I recently gave my 20 gal oil free to my son because I grew tired of the excessive noise. I replaced it with a 60 gal oiled compressor which is so much quieter. You may also want to use it with a small gun for spraying finishes on your projects.

General Scroll Saw Talk / Re: Granberg chain saw mill...... anyone know if this works or not?
« on: November 20, 2013, 06:06:36 am »
I know people who have used chainsaw mills and they strongly recommend getting a chain intended for ripping. Normal chainsaw chains are intended for crosscuts.

Ain't it all fun Judy? My day was nothing compared to yours. I took off work today. Had an appointment with the cardiologist this morning to go over the results of last weeks echo and nuclear stress tests. Then after lunch went to the dermatologist. Have one squamous cell to be removed friday. Today they washed my old sun worn face with acetone (seriously), followed by a chemical peel, then applied a medication that makes precancerous cells photosensitive. Had to sit a while while that burned into my face. Next they put me under a blue light laser for just over 16 minutes. I thought my face was going to slide off my skull. Looking in the mirror tonight I look like I used to when I rode motorcycles and came in from a long ride. Everything is bright red except for reverse raccoon eyes from the goggles! Next week they do the same thing to my arms, which have seen so much sun that they don't burn even if I spend the day out on my boat in the sun. Hang in there girl! You have friends you haven't even met yet.

Depends on how bad it is. There are many products out there. Sanding works great to, but stay away from anything with silicone in it. Silicone can cause fisheye in some finishes. I use Boshield T-9 as a protectant after cleaning. It's a bit pricey per can, but lasts a long time.

I think you guys are doing well. I'm not selling anything at this point, but maybe in a few more years after retirement.

Reminds me of playing Asteroids on the Atari video games system years ago.
