amazingkevin Posted July 2, 2013 Report Share Posted July 2, 2013 this ones done on 3/4 plywood with thick fancy formica on top.took 43 minutes on the dewalt at warp speed of 8 wide open.with a scroll reverse #7 and a scroll reverse #1 only because i'm out of differant size bits I wanted to use a 5 but no drill bit,10.75" tall and 8 " wide.i think this was a sue mey.com pattern.Not sure if it will go on a wall or stand.Thanks for looking RichieB, lawson56, bobscroll and 1 other 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Phantom Scroller Posted July 2, 2013 Report Share Posted July 2, 2013 Kevin I've never cut through Formica before does it cut easy? there beautiful. Roly Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
multitom Posted July 2, 2013 Report Share Posted July 2, 2013 Kevin, looks very nice with the formica on the top, I read somwhere the blade goes blunt because of the glue used in sticking the formica on the top. Mahendra Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
amazingkevin Posted July 2, 2013 Author Report Share Posted July 2, 2013 Yes sir it cuts but slower and the blade gets alot hotter which shortens it's life plus you have to smell fiberglass.I have'nt been able to use the dewalt above 5 on the speed control. but recently took it all apart and used valvoline synthetic on all the bearing i could get to.one bearing was real bad and there was no way of me pressing it out to grease so the squeeky wheel got none.but now moths later i need the high speed to cut the mica an 3/4 ply faster so i tryed it on high speed .before the grease job anything above 5 it would knock.now on speed 8 it's very quite and no knock.Steve good says he does all his cutting on speed #8.

keefie Posted July 2, 2013 Report Share Posted July 2, 2013 (edited) Very nice Kevin, you must cut really fast to have done it in 45 minutes, that would have probably taken me all day lol, but then I do have to stop every 15 - 20 mins to walk around and move my duff leg to stop it siezing Edited July 2, 2013 by keefie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
