I am a 68-year old new to scrolling but I'm never too old to learn new things. I learnt a new thing here, gentlemen, and I thank you for it. Wonderfully educational video.
I have no idea whether you are still doing these videos or even monitoring your youtube site but I wanted to say how much I appreciate what you do and I hope that you keep on doing them. Best of everything to the both of you.
Thank you so much for your kind words. I'm not making any videos anymore. I check from time to time to see comments. I'm two months late seeing yours, I apologize. Life got busy once I grew up, so I don't have much time for the workshop anymore.
I completely understand. Life has a way of getting in the way. I'm way older that you boys and I did my share of working. Now, I have time to sit and watch videos. Anyway, thanks for your reply and the best of luck to you both.
+Daniel Choate Thank you so much! Wow thirty years is a while. Inlay is pretty easy at this level. I'd say a thirty year scroller would have zero problem making something with this method.
Fantastic video! Very informative for people who have yet to do any type of scroll sawing. Showing how many different things you can make with just simple pieces of wood! Many blessings to you and your Channel!
You Guy's are great! I have been scrolling for three months now and glad I found your site, this is a very easy project thanks to you showing it, will incorporate more of this inlay stuff into other projects. Great music also!
I'm blown away by your video. I do some inlay work with my CNC. Same concept, one fits into the other, but each cut separately. I have a scroll saw and am about to try some Intarsia. But now you've got my curiosity stirring so, I'm going to give your method of Inlay a shot. I'm impressed by your skill and the quality of your video work. Many thanks. Just liked and subscribed.
I just subscribed to your channel. After all, how could I not like your video? I’m a big Waylon Jennings fan and I love to make things on the scroll saw. Also, I’ve been trying to figure out how to do inlays. So your video was just what I’ve been looking for. Thanks for posting it.
That's good work boys, and I especially like the one Waylon logo. I've a brand new scroll saw collecting dust in my shop I want to clean up and play with now.
thanks for this video - I haven't bought a scroll saw yet as I still need to decide which make and model to buy - in the mean time I've been watching all kinds of clips on UTube about scroll saws and this video of yours is the first that really explains very clearly how to do inlay work - I can now see a lot more possibilities with using a scroll saw - I'm not a country music fan at all but I really did enjoy the music with this video and it fits in perfectly with your southern accent - I'm sorry to hear about your brother - I checked and you are making videos again - that's great - it's a tribute to your brother and I'm sure he would have wanted you to continue - I've subscibed to your channel and please continue making videos as not many woodworkers explain things as clearly as you do - visual effects in clips can be interesting for awhile - but in the end most people want to watch clips like yours to learn - by the way I live in Europe - thank you for sharing your knowledge…
I'm a first timer too, like Trevor. Video well done. You guys made it clear and simple. I always stay clear of inlays for fear I will fowl it up. Now I will try it!
Hey guys! I'm getting time to do a little scrolling again and was glad to see you were still making video's. I think when I first subscribed , you fella's didn't even have a Dewalt saw! I have noticed you guys haven't had a video in awhile so I hope everything is well and like me life is getting in the way of our wood working love. Great project by the way!!! Looking forward to catching up on all the rest.
Excellent. What a clear tutorial, plus some country music to help it alongI I've used scroll saws many times, but never treated them as anything more than a tool to cut shapes quickly. Your video, along with others I've seen, have opened my eyes to ways the scroll saw can be used creatively. OK, there are so many variants available: can anyone recommend a decent make and model (and not at the starter/budget end)?
if you guys get time I'm new to scrolling and just purchased a dewalt dw788. If you dont mind it would be cool if you did a tutorial on diff types of blades and their uses. thanks and I really enjoyed your video.
Thank you sir for watching. Unfortunately my brother is no longer with us, so I'm not making any more videos. I can explain a little about blades in this comment though. Blades go by size. You have #1, 3, 5, 7 are the common size blades. #1 being a fine tooth and up to #7 being large and more aggressive. The smaller the tooth, the tighter of cuts you can make, obviously then the larger tooth, the radius of cuts is bigger. Now the type of blades. There are standard straight tooth blades. Meaning all the teeth are pointing down. Then there are reverse tooth blades where the teeth pattern alternates up and down. These blades aren't as aggressive because, but an advantage is the reverse tooth cuts the back side of the work piece smoother and doesn't leave the burs on it like a straight tooth blade does. Then there are spiral blades. The blade itself is in a spiral shape. Instead of turning the work piece when you cut turns, you just move it back and forth, side to side to follow the line since the teeth of the blade are cutting in all directions. Another type of blade is called a jewelers blade. It is made to cut metal. Only thin tin metal I would cut with, but I don't have any experience with it, so my advice is limited where that is concerned. Another type that comes to mind is a puzzle blade. These blades are thinner than the average blade. Meaning a smaller saw kerf. Making puzzles fit together more firmly. I myself like using a regular blade on puzzles just for the fact that the pieces fit better a little loose than tight. I hope some of this information helped. I'm sorry I can't make a video for you. For more information you might check out Steve Good www.scrollsawworkshop.blogspot.com I learned a great deal of information from him as well as folks in his scroll saw community forum he has on his website.
hay guys that was a grate tutorial thank you both iv always wanted to try scroll but the machinery isn't cheep and and i didn't want to lay out the cash if i didn't like it , and i dont no any one oh dose. but you no i think im going to give it a go. thanks for the inspiration Guys grate work
@pep pep an entry level scroll saw sells at homedepot for about $120. Getting one myself in a couple of weeks to keep myself busy since I'm not able to work do to back problems.
Hay marcoagarza thank you for the info and i hope you let me know how you get on with yours after you have got some use out of yours and how the machine is to use im greatly interested maybe do a video on how you good yours is thank you
great video!!! Just a quick question and probably a stupid one but...why is there a need to angle the blade for the inside cut? If you just cut at the 90 degrees wouldn't the inlay still fit like a puzzle piece?
Thank you. Well the piece would just fall through. Even if you glued it, you would see the glue in the kerf around the piece you cut. With the angle, it is a tight fit without any gaps. I was lucky getting this a perfect fit. I usually use a backer because the angle isn't perfect like this one and the backside of the piece looks bad.
+Joe Duncan I've never used spiral blades with inlay before. I wouldn't recommend using them when your doing inlay because your cutting at that angle and if you move the board all around to make your turns, you might be crossing the angle in different spots of the line your cutting. When you use a regular blade, your going the same direction and angle the entire cut.
+Trevor Lebert sure, well there are a few variables to make sharper corners and points. One first of all is blade size, smaller the blade you use, the more apt you are to make a sharper corner. Second, if you are cutting a project where you will remove the center of a cut, so not like this one, you can cut into a corner, then back out while the saw is running, then cut into the center of the "waste" area over to the other end of the cut and continue on down the line of the pattern to the corner you backed out of. I don't know if that makes any sense, but essentially you wouldn't be turning that corner at all, just cut up to it, then meet it again from the line that goes out of it. Third, if you do cut the corner by turning the work piece like you usually would, once you cut into the corner,while you are turning, pull back against the blade, so you can't cut further risking rounding the corner. Much easier to do with a smaller blade, because you can almost turn you piece 360degrees will staying in the same spot. For sharper points, you can cut up to the point, then go past it into the waste area and loop back around to the point and cut on. I hope any of this makes a lick of sense and I hoped it helped.
hello, friend would kindly give me the model and description of the sheet used for their excellent work. Thanks for your help and greetings from Venezuela.
So very sorry. All summer has been hell with stuff with Dylan and now we are finally back to a normal routine. Next video will be your review. Soon hopefully.

Awesome work man, are you from GA? I swear you look familiar.
aritz2310 Thank you! No I'm not, I'm from Ohio.
Thanks alot guys
Xellent, thank you
you scroll sawing is very interesting but I sure can say anything for your choice of music
obrigado,
Great to see that woodprix has new instructions to save my money and energy to build it.
If the gentelman to you left is you brother, it would be nice to introduce him at the begining of you video. Just saying.
I made it with WoodPrix handbooks !
I've found great handbook on woodprix website. Good solutions for everyone I think
guys....what has happened to you? Miss the videos...............
So very sorry. All summer has been hell with stuff with Dylan and now we are finally back to a normal routine. Next video will be your review. Soon hopefully.
Does the seated man talk?
I did it myself. I used Woodprix woodworking plans for this.
