    Thank you . This was very useful information for me. I just got a scroll and never cut anything. From watching this video I believe the blade that was on the saw was a #2. I broke it almost immediately when I tried to cut a 45 degree angle on 3/4 inch plywood. Now I see I was trying to cut too thick a piece. I'm not sure what # the other blades is, but it might be a 9 or 12. I'll try again. Thanks.

I have been told that the best blade for intricate cuts is the tiny spiral blade but it looks like that is not the best choice and I would need a #5 blade. Is that correct?

    Purchased an older Delta Scroll saw few years ago, had in storage since purchase, and there is no manual and no blade. I would like to use it however have no idea what length blade is needed for it. Only number I can find on it is K3231, guessing that is model number, and it is a 2 speed, yet can't find any information on websites. Can you tell me how to determine what length blade is needed?

  • @pswoodmachines714

    Most scroll saws take a 5" long blade. I'd try contacting Delta and ask if they know, but my guess is it is 5" long. Also be aware that some saws take a pin-end or pin-less blade so you'll need to find out if which one your saw uses before ordering.

    What speed should you run your scroll saw at?

  • @barbarapeters8663

    @barbarapeters8663

    Жыл бұрын

    There are a number of variables to this question. How many speeds does your particular saw offer? What blade size are you using? What type of wood and how thick? I generally use a #5 blade for most of my cutting and I run it between 790 and 1140 depending on the hardness and thickness of my wood. Your best bet is to experiment and see what's comfortable for you. If you're getting burning on your wood, slow down your speed or increase your blade size. Also, your blade only cuts as fast as you push the wood toward it. Let the blade do the work. If your fingers are tired or sore when you're done cutting, you're not letting the blade do the work.

  • @barbarapeters8663

    @barbarapeters8663

    5 жыл бұрын

    I would use a #5 on both, however, a #2 would cut the Baltic birch if you need a tighter kerf (say for puzzles), The #2 has a higher tooth per inch count and the birch is very soft thus creating more sawdust. When that happens your blade can heat up and you won't get as much life out of it. Depending on what you're making, you will have to decide between the #2 or #5 for the birch.

    You say the #5 is for up to 3/4 inch softwood, and #7 is for 3/4 to 1 & 1/2 hardwood, so what would you use for 3/4 to 1 & 1/2 softwood? It seems you have a gap there.

  • @barbarapeters8663

    @barbarapeters8663

    5 жыл бұрын

    I would use the #7 for both hardwood and softwood 3/4" - 1-1/2". A #5 would cut it, but the #7 has one less tooth per inch allowing the sawdust to clear out better. If finish is the most important thing to you, you'd have to use the #5, but it will wear out faster than than it should since all that sawdust will create heat. Thanks for pointing out our gap. We'll have to correct it in our catalog also.

I dont have to push hardly at all now just guide it around the pattern.

    no disrespect but you are not a scroller---first take off the hold down------you should be putting your fingers to the side of the blade and act as a pivot-------also the blades you use are not the best at all-----try using precision ground blades---------you should never let the wood jump up and down all the time-----------I have been scrolling many years and if set up right you should be able to simple use the pivot finger to hold down the wood and simply change one hand to the other to get the pivot-------
