I have Emailed Steve two or three times in the last few weeks and there is always an answer the next day.
News: Had a couple issues with the forum today. 1/19/2017. I believe I have them corrected now. Let me know if you have any trouble. Thanks.

General Scroll Saw Talk / Re: Dewalt 40-694 set up
« on: January 17, 2022, 04:00:12 pm »
Rodney,
Thanks for the note. Discovered. (after forgetting the trunion had slots,) I loosened them and adjusted the table. Pretty close to center now.
Thanks for the tip, it worked great.
Thanks again,
Jim

General Scroll Saw Talk / Dewalt 40-694 set up
« on: January 17, 2022, 12:03:12 pm »
Good morning all,
Just set up my new Delta scroll saw 40-694.
Have the table set in the indent and table at 0 deg.
However the saw blade is very close, like a out 0.006 the the left side (edge)of the hole.
Not sure how to adjust the table to move it or the blade to the center.
Any tips or hints would be helpful.
Thanks,
Jim

General Scroll Saw Talk / Delta scroll saw

All,
I noticed that the Delta scroll saw price has jumped from about $380.00 to about $760.00 on both Amazon and Lowes.
Any idea what made them that more valuable than the Dewalt DW788 for $532.00?
Just wondering if anyone had any insight?
Thanks,
Jim

Introduce Yourself. / Re: New Members

Good morning all,
My name is Jim ( username jpaskell) Purchased a used Dewalt DW788 on Facebook. Thought I'd try it after watching all the YouTube videos from Steve Good, Hans Meier, Bob Brokaw and the Gwinnett woodworkers site as well as others.
Glad to be here for what I know will be questions I have that will be helpful from those in the know.
I'm retired and took up woodworking a few years ago, but with the price of lumber, realized scroll saw work was satisfying and required less expensive wood due to smaller projects that still provide great looking results. Smaller, thinner and sometimes able to use some leftovers from other work.
Look forward to visiting often and asking, hopefully, not dumb, questions.
Glad to be here,
Jim
