ScollSaw Slasher Posted December 31, 2016 Report Share Posted December 31, 2016 Well I'm on my way to filling my New Years resolutions. Just got in a magnifier with light, test tubes with a rack, small desk fan and some dental finishing strips. Now if I can get the right focal length setup on the light (just about there) when cutting, it's going to be great. Test tubes are not so much for the new blades but those slightly used (or abused being the slasher) blades that have more cuts left in them. Never been happy with the dust blowers on scroll saws, so once I build a little extension rack, will try out the fan. Hopefully the dental finishing strips will get rid of those warm fuzzies on delicate fretwork. Will see. Next will be a foot switch to turn the whole show on when I get everything set up. And all of this is brought to you by Amazon. Twenty years ago, I never thought I'd become such a mail order freak. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lucky2 Posted January 1, 2017 Report Share Posted January 1, 2017 Blake, what are these dental finishing strips used for? For fuzzies on the back of my fretwork, I use a detail sander. Even on the real delicate stuff, and I've never had a piece break on me. Len Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ScollSaw Slasher Posted January 2, 2017 Author Report Share Posted January 2, 2017 I will be using the dental strips to sand veining cuts. Used to use them when I played dentist to get a perfectly smooth flush fit between filling and tooth for those fillings that would end up under the gum line between teeth.
