This pattern is cut from 1/4" thick Baltic birch plywood. I used a clip in craft light like the one pictured below. These are super easy to use. They just clip into a 1" diameter hole.

DeWalt, Delta, King Excalibur, Seyco, Pegas slipping blade repair:
I have had emails lately asking about slipping scroll saw blades. This question comes around every year as new scrollers buy new scroll saws. It is an important subject because you can make the problem worse unless you know what to do.
This is a video I did back in 2018 about slipping scroll saw blades. The video applies mostly to the saws listed in the title above. There are some definite do's and don'ts with this problem. The biggest don't is to over tighten the thumbscrew. Most people do overtighten the thumbscrew when the blade starts slipping. That will just make the problem worse. The problem can be resolved most of the time with these renewal kits. They are inexpensive so it's nice to have a set or two on hand.
The renewal kits may not fix the problem if you have overtightened the thumbscrew many times. In that case, you may need to replace the upper and lower clamp assembly. It's not that expensive either but it's best to just not bend it. Watch the video for more details.

I am ready to start taking Personalized Christmas Ornament Pattern orders.
I can do first or last names but remember that more than ten letters will be more difficult to cut.
The order form will take up to 20 names for people and 5 names for pets. If you need more than 20/5 then start a second order.
You will not pay until you have the patterns and are 100% happy with them. There will be an invoice sent with the patterns to your email. You will have the option to pay securely with a credit card or send a check to the included address.
I am shooting for a three-day turnaround but that may be difficult for a few days until I get all the kinks worked out. I'll do my best. You can set a bookmark for each of the order forms but I will post them almost every day until Christmas.
