Held my tuner up to the video and the blades fell under an A/Ab tone when struck (if that helps anyone). Great video buddy! I’m in Austin and about to get into scrolling. This vid will be a huge help.
That's awesome. Hoping that the sound still transfers over. Glad your getting into scrolling. I need to get back on these videos so it helps others. If you have any other questions, feel free to reach out!
I just asked a question about using a guitar tuner. I wonder if the key would be different for various blades? I should ask him what blades he was using using that you got the A/Ab?
You should do a video on how to put a blade in. I have a Ryobi scroll saw, I got many years ago. When I would break a blade, I would call my dad and he would come down (we lived about 2 blocks away) and replaced it for me. He did dhow me how, but it's been years since I used it and I'm wanting to get back into wood crafting. I went out to cut a piece of wood a couple of weeks ago and the blade broke, just got new blades {my Ryobi is flat pins} the only one I could get were the reverse blades {ordered the regular blades off Amazon will be here Monday}. I've never put the reverse blades in before and I forgot how the bottom end goes into the bottom slot/holder whatever it's called.
Great video!
the sound thing is super helpful for me!! I'm very visual and seeing it in a video rather than someone trying to just tell me is so much easier! Thank You
Thank you. Its something that is better heard. Glad it helped you out! Happy scrolling!!
I can’t figure out how to get the sound bit :/
Well done Julian. Forwarded this on to my daughter who want to start scrolling. Got her started on her last visit. Thx.
Thanks Gary, hope its informative for Her. Hopfully going to be making a few more episodes this week.
I have yet to own a scroll saw...maybe in a few years.
But what I feel I really need NOW is one of those custom branding irons you use in your intro!
Scrolling is fun. Its relaxing to me and there are alot of things you can do with them. I got the branding irom from Gearheart Industries. www.gearheartindustry.com/
Great video!!
Here is how I get my tension right: step 1- buy a cnc machine. Step 2- lure an expert scrollsawer over to my house with the promise of v-carving. Step 3- ask scrollsawer to tension the blade.
Hahahahahaha and it worked!!! Just wish I could see more from you on the scroll saw other then cutting the tabs off your CNC pieces!! Lol
I bought a wen - but - I am going to see if it works - should be fun - thanks for the video
I've never used a WEN but know others who have. Happy scrolling and hope this video helped!
Thanks man! I hope this is a lengthy series. I definitely need more.
Thanks for watching man! I have a few more episodes planed out. Just need to film them. Then I'll go more into tips and tricks
Thanks for the shout out bud. Looking forward to seeing more.
No problem man! I actually will have a series about templates and where to get them and you WILL be in that one as well!!
Great video. Just what is wanted on you tube, genuine info. When will thumbs down give their reasons.
Thank you! Yea there are a few thumbs down but for the most part, most people are learning from it which is the reason I made it, so I'm not to worried about them! Lol thank you again and more to come soon.
Great video! My DW788 is still in box. Now that I know how to set the tension, I'm unboxing & setting up ASAP!!
That's great to hear!
Great video. Hadn't even occurred to me to check that the blade was the right way up! Doh!
Great Video Jules. Can't wait for the rest of the series.
Thanks Sam, should be this week sometime.

Thanks Bob for all the support over the years!
Wish I had videos like these when I started!
You and me both man! That's the main reason I'm doing them now! To help others that want to get into it but arent sure how! And that means alot man!
Thanks for the helpful video. You have an interesting channel!
Thank you. I need to finish up episode 3 and film episode 4. Episode 4 is the good stuff where we actually cut something lol
Nice vid bud. Keep them coming.
Thanks man! Just hope they help out!
Nicely done sir!
Thank you sir!
I have a guitar tuner that is very sensitive. I wonder if it would be useful for blade tension? What blades did you have in each of those scroll saws to test the tension? I'm very new at scrolling and just subscribed to your channel.
the sound test link is no longer working
Thanks for the clear video. I bought a 1991 Sirox scroll saw and will set it up this week. I wonder: The clamps (where you clamp the blade in) can rotate left and right, should these be loose or tightened?
Thanks in advance!
Im not to firmiliar with that brand. I believe the WEN you can turn the blade so it can either cut front to back or from one side to the other. The clamps should have some movment to them when there is no tention but once you have the proper tention they really shouldn't move.
@@5x30Workshop Thank you!
