kmmcrafts Posted February 22, 2022 Report Share Posted February 22, 2022 (edited) I was watching youtube video the other day and they was showing some scroll sawing tips etc.. They said they use glad press-n-seal instead of shelf liner.. I don't have any or I'd try it but thought I'd share it here and maybe someone will have some on hand and try it. I'll pick some up maybe in a few weeks when we hit the grocery store again. If it works well then it's a lot cheaper alternative to shelf liner because it comes 12" wide and 140ft long.. The shelf liner is only 36ft long at cost more per roll.. Just thought I'd put it out there maybe someone already doing this on here or maybe someone has it in the kitchen and don't mind giving it a try..

Travis Posted February 22, 2022 Report Share Posted February 22, 2022 I made a video on using that a few years back. I don't use it all of the time, but it sure works great! John B, OCtoolguy, Be_O_Be and 2 others 1 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roberta Moreton Posted February 22, 2022 Report Share Posted February 22, 2022 I have used it. After watching Travis! It works for quick, easy pieces. Sometimes quick and easy is the best solution. danny, kmmcrafts and OCtoolguy 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TAIrving Posted February 23, 2022 Report Share Posted February 23, 2022 I tried it last year and was not happy with it, it pulled up in places while I gave up on it after the one attempt. But it sounds like others have had success with it. I might have to try it again. OCtoolguy 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The people on the live YouTube channel said you must sand to a nice smooth surface and remove all the dust with air hose etc. for best results.. I do that anyway so I have less sanding of fragile projects when cutting is done so that's not an issue for me.. OCtoolguy 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChelCass Posted February 23, 2022 Report Share Posted February 23, 2022 I just watched Travis's video and the one thing that caught my eye is his ScrollSaw. it's the exact same one I have. I use it all the time and have never had a problem with it. Would love to find another one just like it. OCtoolguy 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are tons of used saws in my area and I'd be happy to search out one for you. Send me the info on your saw so I can be sure it's the exact same saw. kmmcrafts 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave Monk Posted February 23, 2022 Report Share Posted February 23, 2022 I got a roll of it once to try and had a heck of s time getting it off the roll. Ended up throwing it away. Maybe I should try it again. OCtoolguy and kmmcrafts 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vibrated so bad and was noisy.. variable speed wouldn't work so I returned it, came home and ordered a refurbished Dremel 1800 with the sander on the side.. The Dremel was a pile of junk.. I probably should have exchanged the Craftsman for a different one and gave it another chance.. ChelCass and OCtoolguy 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
