scroll saw blades

[Dave.G]

'just had a thought, Claymore, if I buy a couple of gross of these blades, I would become IMMORTAL!! that would be good.'
As I'm new to this forum lark, can anyone tell me what a 'thread' is. the only thread I know is in my wife's sowing box.
I do sometimes lose the thread of a conversation but that's when I dose off. 'still 'avant found the blade yet. these smilies are a pain, one of them is waving a flag, is he trying to attract my attention!

A thread is what you are posting in at the moment, this is your thread as you started it, so you have the right to tell anyone off if they wander off into another subject! Lol When that happens (quite often) it is known as thread drift. as you started the thread you are the OP (original poster).

If you look down the list of topics for example "Hobbies fret saw" that is a thread.

Hope this helps.

My wife was looking at one of the Pegas No 1 blades when she accidently pinged it up in the air! that blade is so fine that we can't find it anywhere.

No 1 is big! wait till you try some 00 blades sometimes called 2.0 or double O. I have some piercing saw blades that are even finer than 00.

Thanks for that John, I think I understand now Hmmmm! those oo blades must be as thin as a hair, I'll give them a miss until I become more skilled. that Smiley is still waving at me, I'm sure he's in trouble.
