scrollerpete Posted March 25, 2020 Report Share Posted March 25, 2020 With no customers coming in your store you have plenty of time to make sawdust. Looking great so far, keep safe. OCtoolguy and scrollingforsanity 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looking great so far, keep safe. For sure, Pete. The door are locked and we see people by appointment only. I was waiting for a FedEx shipment of Pegas blades. Supposed to be both yesterday and today. We were here and the truck drove by without stopping. scrollingforsanity and OCtoolguy 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OCtoolguy Posted March 25, 2020 Report Share Posted March 25, 2020 Very nice Denny. I guess I'm going to have to give them spirals a try sometime. scrollingforsanity 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dgman Posted March 25, 2020 Report Share Posted March 25, 2020 Looks like you’re having fun with that Denny! Question..... what makes your saw a “demon Pegas scroll saw”? scrollingforsanity and OCtoolguy 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scrollingforsanity Posted March 26, 2020 Report Share Posted March 26, 2020 I am going to order blades from Denny before tooo long I think I will get a dozen spirals as I have never used one. My good friend Paul ( AKA Scrappile ) said he would let me try a couple but with the coronavirus I probably won't see him for a while.

JimErn Posted March 26, 2020 Report Share Posted March 26, 2020 That is going to be an amazing piece Denny. Number of holes is interesting, number of blades would be too. OCtoolguy 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Great pattern you chose Denny. I agree on spiral blades. They are a great blade for fretwork portraits. I encourage anyone who hasn't given them an honest try to give them a little time they might just like them. Lord knows a lot of us have plenty of time on our hands right now.

They were bending too quick, so I switched to #1 Spirals. OCtoolguy 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lord knows a lot of us have plenty of time on our hands right now. Thanks Al. So true. We just got an executive order from the county to close all non essential business and ArtCrafters is one. We were closed but set up for appointments only. Now completely closed hopefully only temporary. I will still come in a fill online orders.
