Scroll Saw Sander Mod (Basically Free!)

  • This is a super easy and basically free way to make a sanding pad for any inexpensive pinned scroll saw. It requires one old scroll saw blade, some carpet tape, and sand paper. That's it. I've found that old belt sanders work very well and add some nice thickness to the sanding pad. Thanks for taking a look.

    This is so helpful! Thank you! You don't even need those long strips of sanding paper. The top half gets wasted as it won't ever be used while on the blade. So you only need to put a short piece there where it will make contact with the wood.

    Great tutorial. Thank you. I have purchased some sanding blades in the past and they were very expensive for what you get and they didn't last very long before I would have to throw them away. No more thanks to you!

    I have been thinking of ways to save myself some money to help sand my projects! Thank you so much! You just don't know how much I appreciate it.

    I picked up some really cheap blades that quickly showed me why they were on clearance. I was going to buy some sanding blades, but saw this and already had carpet tape and sandpaper. You just saved me $10-20. Thanks!

    You are genius! Thank you so very much for sharing this. I've been wanting to buy the sanding strips for my scrollsaw, but because there isn't any strength to them, if you push too hard, your work will get rounded when you sand. I'm off to find some double sided carpet tape.

    I just use foam nail files of various grits to get into tight spots on curves. You could even adhere sandpaper to a popsicle stick for flat surfaces. ...same idea. 🙃

    I like the idea it will come in handy, but if you take a chisel and pare off the tabs you'll cut down in the sanding a bunch. Good tip though Thanks

    This is good for getting into tight spaces, but for sanding tabs, it would be much easier to use an electric random orbit sander, a palm sander, or a little detail sander. All fairly inexpensive and you don't have to change a blade.

    Those sanding strips to buy with the plastic tabs do not stay in my Delta scroll saw. This is a great tip and looks like it will benefit me.

    I keep buying the sanding one's made for the scroll saw at like a dollar fifty each and they don't last very long comma plus they have a good size head on both ends so you can't really get into tight spaces this is absolutely simple but genius why didn't I think of this?

    Like your vids, But next time put your tabs to the outside of the work piece. It will make sanding a lot easier.

    • @drez20001
      @drez20001  8 років тому

      Hi Dan. Thanks for your comments. Yep, I try to but sometimes with smaller parts I end up having to put some tabs in areas I don't like. I agree though.
