Ask Steve a question. / Curved text

« on: March 20, 2021, 11:16:36 am »

Steve, or anyone else, I am trying to curve text on the bottom. I am able to do curved text for the top of a circle, but not the bottom. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Johnny

This is my first time for posting pictures of my work. I used wood shavings from other wood carving project I have kept. My son asked me why I kept all the shavings and now he knows. Hope you like the pictures. Johnny

I want to thank everyone for their reply. I have been using a short 2x4 which works okay, so I may stay with it until I check out all the suggestions. Once again, thanks all.

General Scroll Saw Talk / Arm Lift Support DeWalt 788

I have bought a DeWalt 788 and I was wondering if there was a way to support the arm when placing blade through hole? Thanks much in advance.

Ask Steve a question. / Bi-Plane wheels

« on: August 27, 2019, 07:32:34 pm »

As I was cutting the pattern for the bi-plane I noticed that the instructions say to cut the wheel hold to 17/64 and the rest to 1/4. I found that the only way for my wheels to work was cut the hole in the wheels to 1/4 and not 17/64, As I am typing this I just now noticed the instructions with the photo is correct while the pattern is not. I just that answers my question. Amazing what happens when you read everything.

I have only been scrolling since January of this year and have been enjoying myself. Thank you Steve for all the patterns and words of wisdom to help make up better at scrolling. Thanks again
