Great video- got right to the meat of the subject without mindless chatter and told me just what I wanted to know. Thank you for taking the time to teach us beginners. You are a star.
So glad it was helpful! Thanks for watching, Kimberley!
Don't worry about the blade. Focus on control of the piece and you can use any blade mentioned. If you can't get into the zen of scroll sawing it might not be the craft for you. Reverse blades for straight cuts and spiral blades for curvy cuts. That's all you need to know. Again it's all about control. You can ride a line with a spiral blade if you concentrate on it.
I'm still new to scrolling, but I agree with using mostly modified geometry blades. The first time I used one I couldn't believe how smooth the finish was when done.
It can make such a huge difference! 🙌
Thank you for that great & useful information greatly appreciated.
Thanks for watching! 🙂
Thanks you good tips
Thanks for watching! 🙂
Good video. One can use a 16 mm melamine board on top of the metal base.
This can give the blade, twice the life. 😊
Great info. No idea what blades to get. The thing I will need to cut will be 1/2 inch mdf most likely.
My favorite is the #5 modified geometry!
Hey Danielle! Thank You so much for this video! I found it very helpful! You were so easy to follow and you explained it so good. I just purchased a Seyco...I know...Pegas and Seyco are rivals...lol it's been 20 years since I've had a scroll saw, a lot has changed with blades! Have a blessed day!
Thanks so much for watching! I’ve heard only good things about the Seyco! I hope you love it! Best of luck :)
5:50 Can you explain why the tooth has to point downwards?
so it doesn’t pull the piece up (any more than it already is inclined to), but pushes it down against the table
Well after my 1st week returning to the Hobby (DEWALT 788), I've tried name signs and 3d Intarsia>>>>>>>> well I'm shocked at the LONG learning curve ahead of me!! At 76yo, I sometimes fell I'll die of old age before I reach and acceptable level of Skill. I do try to get some scrolling done each day!!
I've seen a font on Etsy, I've tried to find on the Net with no success: rounded tops/bottoms and letters are touching. I reached out the seller with no success 😢
No way, I bet you’re doing better than you give yourself credit for! I bet you’ll improve fast! If you can use Canva.com and chose a free font, it allows you to decrease the letter spacing and you can move them until they’re touching! I’ll have to do a Canva tutorial sometime!
Thanks! I have a question. Can a scroll saw use either a pinned or no pin blade? Mine came with a pin blade but i need to do tiny holes so wondering if a no pin blade can be attached to the saw somehow?
They can usually take both, but often the vibration on machines that only take pinned blades can be enough to cause it to slip out a lot. If you lived by me I’d try and help you troubleshoot :). Unfortunately I don’t have experience with a lot of the models. Best of luck!
Great info on blades, thank you! I am new and found this very helpful. Cheers!
Thanks for watching! Best of luck!
Hello.... I'm new at this. THANK YOU for your videos! MUCH appreciated. I was listening to the comment you had made about the "modified geometry blades" do these come in a No. 5? I'm getting my scroll saw delivered on January 9th! REALLY EXCITED!!! THANK YOU for any direction you can give. Respectfully yours..... Greg
Thanks for watching! Yes, and the #5 modified are my favorites! Congrats on the new saw!! I hope you love it!!
I like the modified blades but they are small.
Would love to know your favorites!
You can go up to #12 blades, but I also find that for a same #, they seem smaller than and styles. I mostly use Pegas blades, they suit me well.
