Ok, now I have a question for you...What is wrong with paste wax on a table saw or scroll saw??
I have been using Johnson's paste wax on both my table saw and scroll saw and even on my drill press, joiner and planer for years. None of them have rusted or fallen apart so far.



The guy at acmetools told me that the paste wax well sometimes stick to the wood silicone being bad for wood finishes etc and he told me this stuff is better the bostik top cote it makes the wood slide nice and the guy is not a saleman he is a tech  I don't even talk to the salemen or salewomen at acmetools they are mostly full of poop.  I just go online and there something call  google.com  and read up on it first and see what everyone else thinks of it.........

happy easter everyone................ and happy new year lol just kidding just easter.....

got it fix.  There was some screws that were lose and the guy tight them up and it sounds like new again i'm so happy now.  I also found out that PASTE wax is not good for any table saw and scroll saws. This guy told me that this is better the bostik top cote spray and you can get it at www.acmetools.com or order it online or here http://www.amazon.com/Bostik-10220-Aerosol-Top-Cote/dp/B0000223UD/ref=pd_rhf_p_img_1

yeah that stuff from home depote sucks and lowes. I had got a half of sheet of it and I thought it was baltic birch plywood.


There might be something wrong with your scroll saw. call dewalt the number is in the manual.  ASK for Tim Jordan.  Make sure that you are close to your scroll saw maybe it can listen to it and tell you that something what might be wrong with it or it could be a controller that need to be replace.

good luck.. I have me in getting fix i hope..... I have some easter to stuff to cut out so i hope to have it back by friday and then i'll get the dust flying again.. try a olson blade matchspeed rev number 5 blade and see if that fix it...   I like the olson blades that the only ones I can get locally un less steve good sends me some free FD blades LOL.......

umm that didn't work I try it and it still makes that loud noise  I have a olson blade number 5 matchspeed rev. It will  make the loud noise when I turn it up the speed to between 7 and 8 and higher i don't think that is right even for a number 5 olson blade matchspeed. But when I turn it down to 7 or lower then the noise stop. The guy at dewalt told me it some kind of a controller that need to replaces. I took it in to have it a look at amc tools of the north. It still under warranty.

So it still under warranty so I say what the heck and let them check it out.... and see what the h&^% is going on with it.

I love my scroll saw so much I ask the scroll saw to marry me   but scroll saw said no
ok later then..

yes when lefting the scroll saw arm sometime it catches and hard to left.  Well there might not be anything wrong with it after all then? So maybe I don't have to take it in and have it look at.  but as far as the change in the sound when starting up the saw it get loud and that could be the blade slipping the other thing I noices sometime then tension that set the tension of the bland sometime it well tight the blade up then other times it don't. i'm not good at telling what is wrong with it.  sometime the tension setting sometime that slip a little then I have to re do it then it grabs the blade and sometime it works and sounds like it when it was new.  Sorry guys I just didn't get much sleep last night so i'm not thinking clearly.   


thanks for the help..
