How long do you sit/stand at the scroll saw?

[Phantom Scroller]

OK, I sit in my chair and don't move while the wife feeds and waters me and I sleep in my chair and dream of cutting and never go home. beat that then.

Hi Dan

 

Usually 30 - 45 min sitting on a stool. Then I'll take a break for a few min. and then continue. An hour would have been the longest.

It was suggested that I build a stand with a 30 degree angle to it. Now I can saw for a good length of time. I still get googly eyes but it's nothing another coffee(beer) can't fix. It's nicer on the back not being slouched over all the time.

depends on what I'm cutting. but normally 2-3 hours. Unless it starts getting to me, making mistakes I will take a break and work on something else.

I can sit and saw for 3-4 hours, I love the days that I can do that. However, lately, I am lucky to get 5 minutes.

I sit anywhere between 6 to 8 hours, depinding on the project that I'm doing.

I have spent 2-3 hours at times. I don't think I could sit much longer without taking a break.

I usually cut for about 4-5 hours at a time. I sit on a excercise ball, I have tried the chairs, bar stools and standing, but I find this to be the most comfortable.

Well, I've gotta say Thomas that you are the only one I know that scrolls while sitting on an exercise ball. They are pretty comfortable, but my table is too high for that.

For me it depends on the day. I average between 5 to 6 hours on a week day after work, on the week ends normally more then that. We do crafts shows and stock goes pretty fast. The Mrs. likes her tv, I don't watch it much so I work in the shop.

Anybody try sitting on a beanbag at the saw, just wondering it might be comfortable.   Roly
