General Scroll Saw Talk / Typo in URL for today's Raccoon wall art pattern.

« Last post by KCSteve on May 09, 2024, 10:22:14 am »

The URL for today's Raccoon wall art pattern has a typo - there's only one c.  Just change it from 'racoon' to 'raccoon' and it will work just fine.

General Scroll Saw Talk / Stencil printer

« Last post by Nbmartin on April 26, 2024, 02:00:07 pm »

Want to make nameplates to give out, but need way to put letters on board. Trying to download Steve’s printer stencil on my iPad but can’t get it done. Will it download on an iPad? If so how? If not where can I get something that will do that. Really appreciate the help.
Thanks

Introduce Yourself. / DeWalt scroll saw returned twice-It was no longer a bargan at $399

« Last post by Greg B on April 03, 2024, 09:24:39 am »

The 2nd saw worked fine at first, but after a few days it started making overly aggressive cuts. It was impossible to make tight turns no matter what wood or blade I used. I returned it to Amazon and it took three weeks to get a refund. I've taken my old saw to the DeWalt Service Center in Charlotte to see if they can get it to work properly. The maximum they will charge is $299 which includes shipping it back. I have a 90 day period with DeWalt where I can return it for additional repairs if they don't get it right the first time. I'm keeping my fingers crossed!

Greetings, I realize this is an old post but, I do not log in very often now due to eye surgery and eye strain.
These printers advertise that they will enlarge and reduce as you wanted.

Most people on the scrollsaw sites that I view all recommend a free program called Rapid Resizer
Good luck and God Bless! Spirithorse

Intarsia / free wood scraps

« Last post by ARVY1956 on March 18, 2024, 12:35:20 pm »

I've collected a box (3-4 pounds) of assorted scraps from other projects that I deemed were too large to throw away, but too small for most scroll projects.  It's mostly 1/4" - walnut, cherry, maple, poplar, basswood, oak.  Also are some 3/4" pieces of mostly oak and poplar.  I don't do intarsia, but I think these pieces could be useful to someone so-inclined to pursue intarsia.  I'm in Temple, Tx - pick it up or pay the postage and it's all yours ... the price is right!
