Lesson 9 - Cutting a Bevel on the Scroll Saw.wmv 

You are very welcome.

Glad you enjoyed it. I hope you decide to get a nice saw and have lots of fun with it. If you have any questions, just let me know and I will be happy to help you. :)

+Driel Valar Thank you very much. I appreciate that a great deal. :)

Don't feel bad, cjc. We all do that in the beginning. But once we get the hang of it, it is much easier. Once I cut an entire plaque only to ruin it by beveling it in the wrong direction. That is why I say to do the bevel cut first. It isn't because I am that smart, but it is because I made the same mistake and it is at least correctable at that point. Now - remembering to put the saw back to zero . . . that is something we just need to remember! I still have to remind myself. :) Thanks for the comment.

I am happy it helps you. I have lots of articles that are also helpful on the website. The link is in the description above. Let me know if you have any other questions. Thanks you! Sheila

No, it is not. It may just be the way the camera picks things up. I pivot on the back side of the blade when I turn, but the back side of the blade doesn't cut. I use Olson reverse-tooth blades (typically for a design such as this a size 2 regular reverse.) :)

Sheila Landry Good to know, thanks for posting!

Hello, Alan. I guess it is a personal preference. You can actually do either. The blade that I am using is very thin and therefore bends quite easily. I think as we cut more and more, we build up a 'rhythm' and do these movements nearly without thinking. It doesn't harm either the wood or the blade to do things this way, or I would have stopped doing it a long time ago. :) If you feel better raising the saw first, then by all means do so. I feel there are many roads to a single destination and as a teacher, I do respect that some like to do things differently than I. :) I hope you still found the video helpful. Thanks for your comment.

@@SheilaLandry Hello, Sheila, and thanks for your kind reply. Your tutorials are, indeed, very informative and helpful, thank you. I am currently in the process of progressing from a cheap Proxxon (German) scroll saw to a new Excalibur clone (labelled Axminster, from England). There are now a good many scroll saws made to the Excalibur original design, but labelled differently around the world (Carbatec, Pégas, Axminster, King Canada Excelsior, to name a few) and all manufactured in the same Taiwan factory. I love using my Excalibur clone and I have also discovered the wonderful Pégas (Swiss) blades, which are rated by many users as even better than Flying Dutchman and Olson. Keep up the good work and excellent tuition, Sheila, for us novices to continue learning from you. 👍🏼🙂

Thanks

I am using the Excalibur 21 inch saw by General International tools. :) www.general.ca/products/2_excalibur/EX-21.html

c est une bonne machine je ne vois pas le prix

derek molosse I love it! I cost me about $900 USD (that included shipping) You would have to see which dealer near you has it. I got mine from Seyco. www.seyco.com/category/saws.html . I know in Europe Axminster tools sells them. I don't know their price though. :)
