dgman Posted February 23, 2020 Report Posted February 23, 2020 Nice work Dan! How was it cutting the Purpleheart? Quote
Fedido Posted February 23, 2020 Author Report Posted February 23, 2020 @Clayton717, thank you very much! @dgman, I had to end up switching blades from a 9 tooth to a 14 tooth. Learned a valuable lesson that when one sees smoke, it is time to change the blade. Took a little to get used to it, but in the end, I really enjoyed it. Afterward, I cut some pine and it was like a hot knife through butter. Thanks for asking. Hendo amazingkevin 1 Quote
rjR Posted February 23, 2020 Report Posted February 23, 2020 (edited) Great work. I have run scrollsaw for about 65 years now and may eventually know something about it! I actually still own that first saw and it still works. Very limited to the thichness of material it can handle though. I played with it last week JUST BECAUSE! I swear every time I cut any major project I learn something new. Edited February 23, 2020 by rjR Additional comment Fedido and amazingkevin 2 Quote

Fedido Posted February 23, 2020 Author Report Posted February 23, 2020 Thank you all for the comments. I still have my first saw and thought about cutting some pine with it just because. Thanks you all again. Hendo Quote
Rockytime Posted February 23, 2020 Report Posted February 23, 2020 Very nice cutting. Don't pay much attention to tooth counts so what blade numbers are you talking about? Quote
Fedido Posted February 24, 2020 Author Report Posted February 24, 2020 @Rockytime, I am using Olson Blades. I have Flying Dutchman on order. I don’t recall seeing a number on it, however, I believe it is about .040. I know that doesn’t help much, but looking forward to the new blades. Hendo Quote
