Thank you Walt, that helped me alot. I got it all apart now, just waiting for parts. I ordered the whole linkage assembly, should be back to cutting in a few days.

General Scroll Saw Talk / I broke it!
« on: November 16, 2012, 07:38:11 pm »
I was in the middle of a compound cut in 1-1/2" poplar for a Christmas ornament,BANG. Busted the linkage rod of my Craftsman 16" ( model 137.216010). I ordered new parts from Sears but, I don't know how to access the bottom of the rod, which is where it broke off. I took the back plastic plate off and found a bunch of wires and junk. Any body changed one of these things before and can steer me in the right direction for disassembly? I'm afraid if I just start taking every thing off I will have wasted much effort.
Not a good time to be without my saw!!
Thanks for any insight, Pete.

I also am using a Craftsman. Got it for about $100 a few years ago. I would be afraid to spend too much in case he loses intrest. I have bought a drum kit, upright piano (both included lessons) and many other bigger things for my kids when they were young, because they promised they would practice and use it all the time...... Do I have to tell you how that worked out? LOL

General Scroll Saw Talk / Re: scrollsaw light

Dean, I have the light(s) attached to the workbench so there is no vibration. I like the circle light, but I have additional lights, it swings out of the way quite easily. The little light that came with the saw, I have on the left side, and an additional swing arm lamp on the right.

Brag Forum / For The Veterans
« on: November 09, 2012, 05:07:52 pm »
I made these little tokens of my appreciation for the Veterans I work with. This Sunday is Veterans Day in the United States. I will offer these for free on Monday.
I would also like to take a moment to thank and honor all of you folks who have served in our nations military services as well.
They are made from oak and are about 6" long. Used Steves Stencil Printer for the lettering.

Very nice job on these. My straight lines never look quite that straight, they wiggle. Yours don't, thanks for showing.
