kmmcrafts Posted January 11, 2023 Report Share Posted January 11, 2023 When I bought my Hawk I almost went with a 20” saw instead of the 26”. I have only had a couple projects in the 17 years of scroll sawing that a 20” saw was too small. This project won’t fit on my 21” Excalibur but thankfully there is plenty of room left on the Hawk. This project is just shy if 2’ long. new2woodwrk, don watson, OCtoolguy and 6 others 9 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Breathing in California is probably illegal too, .. Actually a lot of insurance companies won't allow wood stoves in garages etc. This is a wood pellet stove which is allowed as they are considered a lot safer than a actual wood stove as it has sensors that shut it down if it gets too hot etc. has blowers to blow the heat around and the only part that really gets too hot to touch is the actual door and the glass in the door.. and even those don't get so hot that you can touch it but you won't want to leave you hand on it very long, LOL.. unlike the woodburner I grew up around.. if you even slightly touch that it'd give you serious burns. My laser cutter is more dangerous than this stove, LOL.. scrollingforsanity and OCtoolguy 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they turn off our gas I may have to burn my precious scraps. scrollingforsanity and kmmcrafts 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they turn off our gas I may have to burn my precious scraps. Straight outta google: The following wood burning appliances are allowed: Pellet-fueled wood burning heaters. Masonry heaters. Appliance or fireplace determined to meet the U.S. EPA particulate matter emission standard and approved in writing by the Air Pollution Control Officer. EDIT: Well reading further down the list of topic on google maybe not.. just depends on where you are as not all areas can but there are some exemptions that some folks can too so there is that too.

It won't take long. BadBob 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scrappile Posted January 12, 2023 Report Share Posted January 12, 2023 I do not know what is legal anymore where I live. I do not care, I do what I want.. at my age life in prison is not much of a deterrent. At least in prison I would not have to worry the inflation,, I would have a bed, three meals a day and too old to be pestered by any young buck... don watson, OCtoolguy and Gene Howe 1 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Life in prison takes on a whole new meaning once you hit 80. Being totally taken care of for the rest of my days doesn't sound all that bad and if I'm not mistaken, most of the prisons have workshops.
