I would recommend a second hand Delta with the quickset blade clamps, at least two speeds. happy scrolling Steve

I was there on Sunday as well, I too bought a bit of Brown oak and a nice plank of beech. Enjoyed bodgers corner the most, though the chainsaw carving was good as well.

James I'm with you on this one, there are no options, if your selling anything (making a profit or not) you have to register with the taxman. happy scrolling Steve

A Delta with quickset2 blade clamps I have two, it will have to be second hand they're not made any more. happy scrolling Steve

As always Carter an excellent jigsaw.

Sam, welcome to the forum, cutting 50mm is about on the limit for any scroll saw, my recommendation would be to lookout for a second hand Delta with the quickset2 blade clamps with variable speed or at least two speeds. (But I'm biased 'cos I have two, a 40-540 and a 40-560) happy scrolling Steve

Thanks Scrollerman looking forward to doing another one. happy scrolling Steve

I bought a tin of Chestnuts Hard wax oil for finishing my scroll work but after 6 months it went solid in the tin, so I now just use Danish oil.

Very nice indeed.

There's one in Greasley near Eastwood Notts. http://www.evwa.org.uk/ and one at Ollerton Notts. The Dukeries Woodturning Society, first Wednesday in the month, 6-9, Community Workshop, Dukeries Complex, Whinney Lane, New Ollerton. I don't know if it's still going but there used to be a club...

May the 4th be with you.

Woody, there's also a club at Leasingham http://www.lincsturners.co.uk/ that's about the same distance from you as the one at Ollerton. Steve

The Delta 40-540 runs from 400 to 1800 strokes per minute. happy scrolling Steve

Now that's a very good idea, I like those alot.

Tracey, well done on getting the new saw and for not giving up on the hobby which I think so many people do when faced with the problems you've had, hope you have many years of fun. looking forward to seeing some of your work.

If your saw has a NVR switch then the saw will want rewiring to bypass it.

I would seriously think about taking your saw to the Warrington shop and have them check it out, that way you'll know for definite whether it's you or the saw.

=D> =D> Well done =D> =D> :D

Well I'm sure there is a fish out there somewhere that looks like that :D :D :D . You should keep it to compare with at a later date just to see how you improve, looks like your getting the hang of this scrollsawing lark so keep it up. looking forward to plenty more from you.
