But, I like your whole set up. Quote

MrsN Posted March 5, 2018 Report Posted March 5, 2018 Very cool! I am a bit jealous of the green grass in your yard. I really like the arrows, who's patterns are they? OCtoolguy 1 Quote
Rockytime Posted March 5, 2018 Report Posted March 5, 2018 What a way to work! My shop is in my garage but it is partitioned off. However I see you have the same Kobalt saw I have. I also roll mine out on the driveway. Working outside in the sunshine is great. When my second Hawk is up an running I will be able to scroll outside too. OCtoolguy 1 Quote
ike Posted March 5, 2018 Report Posted March 5, 2018 Nice set up . the saw angle is a little higher than mine. The arrows are realy nice where did yu get the pattern? and the green grass looks good hoping mine will dryup and dturn green. IKE OCtoolguy 1 Quote

I really like the arrows, who's patterns are they? The metal arrows my wife picked up at one of the hobby shops a fews weeks ago and asked if I'd hang them. I did like any of the options I had to hang them, didn't want to be able to see any of the hanger material, so I scroll out the wood. I traced the wood out with a 1/4" washer as a spacer. Got the idea with the washer from a youtube video by Charles Dearing. PS....the grass is not were I'd like to be right now, when its up and going it's has to be cut a least every five days........although I may need to rethink it this year. All four of the kids will be in college and that leaves only me to do all the yard work, lol. OCtoolguy 1 Quote

WayneMahler Posted March 5, 2018 Report Posted March 5, 2018 Looking good. I like the setup you did. Like your choice of beverage too, had a few of those last night. OCtoolguy 1 Quote

Tried it approx 7 years ago up in New York at Cooperstown when one of my son's was invited to play in a select baseball tournament near the Baseball HOF. We cant get Yuengling here in Texas (although they have starting selling it in Louisiana), so I have some friends from my side / second job that travel all over the US and they usually bring me a case or two.

OCtoolguy Posted March 5, 2018 Report Posted March 5, 2018 We have a"booze" store here that carries just about everything. I'll check it out there. I like trying out different brews. Ray Quote
bowers25 Posted March 5, 2018 Author Report Posted March 5, 2018 Yuengling is from Pottsville, PA.......the oldest brewery in the US.......they only distribute east of the Mississippi River, until approx a year ago they started distributing in Louisiana. I have not been able to locate and/or order it from any store in my area. OCtoolguy 1 Quote
scrollerpete Posted March 5, 2018 Report Posted March 5, 2018 (edited) Love the beer, they have it here in Panama City Beach and it is my favorited. As a Canadian I' m an expert on beer LOL. Matter of fact just got back from a round of golf and enjoying one right now, might have 2 or so.... Edited March 5, 2018 by scrollerpete OCtoolguy 1 Quote

My son lives in Corpus Christi so when we go down to visit I drink DOS XX. Still seems really strange going to grocery store and buying beer and stuff down there. Hoping to visit again in 2 years.

lew Posted March 6, 2018 Report Posted March 6, 2018 Is there any advantage to working on a angle like the setup you have? OCtoolguy 1 Quote

Many people like it. it gives a different angle to view the blade, and some like that. Myself, I couldn't get used to not having a flat table and went back to flat. OCtoolguy 1 Quote
Bill WIlson Posted March 6, 2018 Report Posted March 6, 2018 3 hours ago, lew said: Is there any advantage to working on a angle like the setup you have? I think it's a little more ergonomically friendly. Stay hunched over a scroll saw for extended periods of time and you look for small improvements that relieve some of the tension in your back, neck, shoulders and wrists. It makes a difference for some. I know I like mine better tilted. OCtoolguy 1 Quote
