Well Then i guess i took this line  wrong then  but to me sounds a little rude.

Computer questions / Re: Adobe PDF files

« on: July 21, 2012, 09:46:03 pm »

Ahh ok, see I thought the resize button in adobe did it. So I guess it only resizes it on the viewing page then? I am new to all this so I am going to have to learn to use the other programs. I would love to make my own patterns such as ornaments and stuff. So not sure which one will be best to use?

Dude watch this video that steve good made on resizeing

Sir I'm A+ certified computer tech.

This is for internet explorer

What you have is a corrupt or damaged registry key in internet explorer Th registry key found at HKEY_Local_Machine\Software\Classes\htmlfile\shell\open\command

I'll bet you want to know how to fix it right lol.

1.Exit all programs, including Internet Explorer (if it is running).
2.If you use Windows XP, click Start, and then click Run. Type the following command in the Open box, and then press ENTER:
inetcpl.cpl
If you use Windows Vista, click StartCollapse this imageExpand this image. Type the following command in the Start Search box, and then press ENTER:
inetcpl.cpl
The Internet Options dialog box appears.
3.Click the Advanced tab.
4.Under Reset Internet Explorer settings, click Reset. Then click Reset again.

Click to select the Delete personal settings check box if you would also like to remove browsing history, search providers, Accelerators, home pages, Tracking Protection, and ActiveX Filtering data.
5. When Internet Explorer finishes resetting the settings, click Close in the Reset Internet Explorer Settings dialog box.
6. Start Internet Explorer again.
 
But I want to know which web browser are you using and which version of windows you are using as well.

jlatorre was asking about the 40-540, not the 40-690.  They are quite different. 

jlatorre, before you buy a saw, try to actually cut wood with it.  All saws vibrate a little, but make sure it doesn't vibrate too much.  Also try changing blades, it is easier if you don't need a wrench.  Most people like blades without the pins at the end, they fit into smaller holes.

There are some comments on the 40-540 on this site - search for 40-540. 

Best of luck and let us know what you buy.
Jim

what is the link

General Scroll Saw Talk / Re: EX 21 - broken

« on: July 15, 2012, 06:26:31 pm »

Well I've gotten word that they are going to repair my saw....here we are 2 weeks and still not done.  The part was to be in this week and now another company is to do the repair.  Hopefully it will go in to the shop next week.  In the meantime I'm still using the DeWalt.  It sounds awful...like I'm going thru a 2" board instead of 1/2".  I don't know what the problem is but until the EX is repaired it's getting the job done. 

Sheila/Dan regarding your replies on blade slippage, I do sand the blade ends now....learned that trick quite early in the game!

Sheila when I get my saw back I'll read the adjusting tension article more thoroughly.  You may hear from me again! lol

Mine dewalt made a knocking noise too. and dewalt sent me a brand new one. it was 2010 model type 2 dw788. I guess from what dewalt told me the all 2010 are bad batch.  The new one is type 2 2012. Working great so far.  But my ex-21 scroll saw waiting on parts for the white leaver and the thums and set screws been about a month now and acme has not got back to me yet.  I think this week i'm going to take the saw in and have them fix it or replace the saw with a new one.

Computer questions / Re: Restore

« on: July 09, 2012, 06:57:41 am »

Not sure if this has been asked before, but is it worth the time to restore a computer to its restore point, if so how far can you go back, just wondering Edward

I Wouldn't do a restore.  I would do is Reformat the hard drive and reinstalling windows and reinstall all the software But do a backup of your personal data frist. What  you'll get is a faster computer and more stable computer system.

Doing a restore is a joke. 
enjoy have fun..  The stuff I said to do is child play's oops I'm A+ certified computer tech but stills child play but without chucky.... lol..

good luck.
