Thats really nice well done hope i can make some nice items like that soon.

Yep once I start getting some more bits made I will post them up on here no problem. Mine does have the quick release top clamp as well which is handy, the machine just needs some TLC Never quite finished today halfway there

Spot on John thanks for quick reply that's brilliant I will make a start on that later today. Cheers Leslie

Hi John that's brilliant thanks very much, I never knew there was a wing fitting as well so that's new to me. That should give me most of the dimensions needed using the ruler image as well thanks. One last dimension I just wanted to check if possible is from the centre of the hex to the...

That's brilliant john thanks would be much appreciated. Looked on eBay but could not find one so be easier to make it. Cheers Leslie

Afternoon all I recently got an old Delta 2 speed 16" scrollsaw which has the quickchange blade clamps but the tool to undo the bottom clamp 4mm hex with a locking bar was missing. Im currently away from home at work and would like to make one while im here but think I left my estimated...

That's a big difference I was gonna go the eBay route just because I'm a sucker for eBay but cheers that's cheaper than flea bay as well.

Thanks very much for that I will get myself some on order end of the week. Cheers

Well I can report a much more successful day cutting on the scroll saw today with the kindly donated blades for me to try from Dave and Toesy. Once I have made something I feel proud of I will post it up. Quick question where moisture is band to be present in my shed / workshop at the moment...

Hi Chris, cheers for pointing out the wood chip only situation. I like the look of that model AWEDE2 you have looks good size and on wheels which is nice for where I'm looking to place one. I certainly want it to be for dust so a combined one is ideal. Leslie

Afternoon all As for the dust extractor sorry i should have been more clear on my question, I cant imagine i will need one for the scroll saw too much but when i'm running the bandsaw and the compound mitre saw I kick out alot of mess, so have been considering a small dust extractor such as...

Thanks for all the extra welcomes be nice to come and quiz experienced people with my problems when I'm stuck and thanks to Barry and Toesy for the blades to try. I have much ambition to learn everything and hopefully mix a few metal items in with the woodwork. Do many of you have dust...

Thanks very much Barry I went the bandsaw and hand sanding route in the end.

Toesy and Barry sent you both pms so hopefully they both came through. Thanks guys

Hi Barry, thanks for all the advice I like the sound of those reverse tooth blades leaving a cleaner finish. As for the wood it was given to me by a carpenter as leftovers from installing a new doorframe and doors at work. I will show you a pic of what I was making maybe you can spot the wood...

Hi Roughcut thanks for the welcome and the link, I was actually looking to buy a hegner machine and still might little later down the line. The delta machine came up very cheap and I the delta sander I'm really pleased with so thoight I would give it a go.

Thanks for the web links scrimped they are not bad prices either, I have bought a fair few silverline products myself and they are very poor quality sometimes you can get away with it but other times it just teaches me that old saying. Buy cheap but twice as it always happens. Not long bought my...

Hi toesy that's very kind of you to offer, yes it does accept pinless blades. Maybe I was being too ambitious I was trying to cut a wooden heart shape out of 20mm thick material. Unsure on the exact wood it was given to me similar to pine. I have been asked if I can do two letters for a friends...

Evening all So I'm new to woodworking and just starting to build up a little workshop of tools. I work in sheet metalwork but recently gained real interest in wood also. I have just purchased a used 2 speed delta scroll saw, it needs a little TLC but I set it up today and used a silverline...
