power tools. Down here in New Zealand we only have one power outlet current and that is
230 volts Is that what you were using to run your scrollsaw or was it running on 110
volts ? I have a hegner saw I imported from Australia a couple of years ago it wasn
t cheap but it is great to use. I do enjoy your email’s and always look forward to reading the latest
edition along with the interesting videos you have
Keep up the great work.

Thank you for the video The first power tool I ever used was the scrollsaw withe metal tractor seat and bicycle like pedaling in my grandfather’s basement. I think this was before i started school. I wish I had that scrollsaw, but somehow got lost in estate sell.

You have a great and very helpful site. Boy, I could have really used you 5 or 6 years ago when I began scrolling at age of 62. I learned via video and books.Thanks for your info, being self taught,I was able to correct bad habits. Keep it up,
Frenchie

Karl,
When I was a teenager – about 13 or so, I begged for a lathe for Christmas (and got it). It was made by Emerson Electric and sold at the Service Merchandise stores for about $50 or so. The headstock of the lathe also had a table above it, with a recipricating blade that stuck up through it, just like that Rockwell tool. It used regular jig saw blades. I used it on a lot of little projects and did work well for that purpose. I could see how the Rockwell tool could be useful – although probably not as much as they pitch it to be.

Concerning video about Rockwell’s new tool.
I am an artist, and when I got out of school and went to my first job I decided I was not interested in being a ‘starving’ artist, and was interested in Steve’s video.
I think he only glazed over one point — anyone who makes plans and puts his/her name on them has an automatic copyright in the US, and you can registered same with the US Copyright Office online, doing literally volumes of them for a tiny fee. There is only one good reason to do this:
An amazing number of these pirates own property and actually do pretty well for themselves; you owe them one written notice to cease using a design of yours (and when the thing’s on a CD, lots of luck on them doing that), and after that, I suggest you contact a patent/copyright attorney with connections to a trial attorney. The fact that you registered the copyright gives you the right to recover attorney’s fees and court costs. To pursue an action against one of these people, the only checking you really want to do before you see counsel is to see if they have real estate or other tangibles.
Frankly, most of the time your registered letter warning them to cease and desist will make them quit, assuming you make it sound good and businesslike. You will get some liars who tell you that they ‘thought it was copyright free’, or some such, but if they desist selling the CD with your design on it, that’s the best you get.
I’ve had my work ripped off so often it hurts, and the stupid part is that if someone would ask, yes they could use it on their website if I didn’t already have it licensed out.
Otherwise, I agree with this video — do one’s best not to support piracy, and if you can, make your own plans. It is hard the first time you do anything new, but the human mentality wants to create things, and you will enjoy yourself.
Anyway, thanks for letting me express my opinion.

I suggest you use ScrollSawVideo rather than SCROLLSAWVIDEO. It would be easier to read.

Karl, Terry here. You need to get a remote microphone to do your videos. In your introduction of Kelly Mehler, I could not hear much of what he had to say. Also, I can’t find a place to sing up. I can only find links to log in. So how do I sign up and what am I signing up for? I have really enjoyed your scrollsaw site.Thanks – Terry! And, I have known Ron Brown for several years. I have a few of his videos already.

Did you try masking tape first,then glue, then pattern? I have been doing this and it cuts time. When i did not know this, i would get mad trying to get the glue off the wood. But Sue May came to the rescue. Myron
