poopie list


These are the types of poope:

GHOST POOPIE: The kind where you feel the poopie come out, but there is no poopie in the toilet.

CLEAN POOPIE: The kind where you poopie it out, see it in the toilet, but there is nothing on the toilet paper.

WET POOPIE: The kind where you wipe your butt 50 times and it still feels unwiped, so you have to put some toilet paper between your butt and your underwear so you won't ruin them with stains.

SECOND WAVE POOPIE: This happens when you're done poopie-ing and you've pulled your pants up to your knees, and you realize that you have to poopie some more.

POP-A VEIN-IN-YOUR-FOREHEAD POOPIE: The kind where you strain so much to get it out, you practically have a stroke.

LINCOLN LOG POOPIE: The kind of poopie that is so huge you're afraid to flush without first breaking it into little pieces with the toilet brush.

GASSY POOPIE: It's so noisy, that everyone within earshot is giggling.

DRINKER'S POOPIE: The kind of poopie you have the morning after a long night of drinking. It's most noticeable trait is the skid marks on the bottom of the toilet.

CORN POOPIE: Self explanatory.

GEE-I-WISH-I-COULD-POOPIE POOPIE: The kind where you want to poopie but all you do is sit on the toilet and fart a few times.

SPINAL TAP POOPIE: That's where it hurts so badly coming out, you'd swear it was leaving you sideways.

WET CHEEKS POOPIE (The Power Dump): The kind that comes out so fast, your butt cheeks get splashed with water.

THE DANGLING POOPIE: This poopie refuses to drop in the toilet even though you are done poopie-ing it. You just hope that a shake or two will cut it loose.

THE SURPRISE POOPIE: You're not even at the toilet because you are sure you are about to fart, but *oops* --- a poopie!

General Scroll Saw Talk / Re: baltic birch plywood dulling the blades

« on: November 10, 2011, 06:57:26 pm »

Well I just gots to put in my two cents worth....  I have been using the
FD-UR 1-3-5 and 7 and I use on a Hegner.  The FD blades were breaking at the top pretty often.  Made me feel the FD blades were faulty, so ordered a batch of Olsen blades.
My feelings are YES both Olsen and FD blades do a good job, but for my money I will ALWAYS USE THE Flying Dutchman brand.  UR only.

Thanks for reading....  Danny  :+}

I never broke a blade. the FD blade in my case was burning the wood and the olsen blade didn't. and I think the model of the olsen blades i use were the matchspeed blades #3 SR....   I have a dewalt dw788  and ex-21  I try both scroll saws with the fd blades and both burn the BB plywood.

Does anyone know why the set screw backs out because it seems like every so often i have to reset it.  and it hard to tell if the blade is 90 to the table.  I have a 2" square

how far should be the set screw be inside the chuck.   is it just so there is no hole or does it stick out a bit or so..

how much do you stack?
But anyway, some like FD, some like Olsen - and some even use both brands. You need to get used to "your" blades and then stick to what works best.

I stack 1/8 thick BB plywood up to 3 boards  and the 1/4 think stack 2 about 1/2   but i could try some ky-jelly on the blades

The mikey FD blades are bad ones that he sent me they just don't cut all that great in the BB burns the BB and any soft wood like pine..

do you use tape to have some lubrication for the blade? that helps a lot. Try putting some on the pack of the wood too.

yes with the olson and the FD blades  I use painter tape. I clue the patters to the painter tape
and then tape the stack together.  but I don't have an issue with the olson blades just with the FD blades that mike sent me as a sample that burn the BB plywood.  I'm not sure if they are just an bad bach of blades or not sharp as the matchspeed oldson blades.   So i'm just going to stick with the oldson and forget about the FD blades for now.   
I still have to fine tune my scroll saw  maybe i'll just have to play in a band using my scroll saw and play chirstmas songs on the scroll saw lol...........

I have try the FD blades  FD -SR #3 blades and the  FD-UR #3 blades they both burn the wood and don't cut all that good.  I been using the oldson blades  the speedmatch #3 and #5.  I'm not going to order the FD blades I've talk to mike and steve about this as well.  then again it could be a bad batch of blades...

Hi Marg,

IT could be the ex moves along a lot faster than the DeWalt.  More power! You may have to retrain yourself to use a little more pressure than you were used to.  I came from a DeWalt to the Excalibur, but I don't remember experiencing any extra bounce.  But it was almost 7 years ago that I got my excal!

Leldon

NO! NO! NO! the dwalt scroll saw is faster then the ex-21 scroll saw

I would like to know from the EX 21 users, do you use the hold down foot or have you taken it off.  My reason for asking is that I have not used a hold down in years and I know I've only had my EX 21 for a few weeks, but it seems to bounce the wood around an awful lot without the help of the hold down.  To me hold downs get in the way and its time consuming.  Help please.

Marg

No I don't use my hold down foot on my ex-21 nor my dw788 dewalt scroll saw..  I hate them.  But in your case you should use it until you get used to your scroll saw you could cut something off that you love so much never mine a finger or two..
