Shot in the foot

09-22-2011, 11:18 AM

I'm new at this, and I haven't touched a Scroll Saw in 50 years.
I think I shot myself in the foot without thinkling, I bought a Pro-Tech 3303 from Craigs List without investigating it, (Looked Good)
Anyway the guy I got it from didn't have any info about it, I thought I could go home and just search the internet to find operation instruction.
No such luck-The main thing I have problems with is the locking lever on top of the arm, I have tried to change the blade and cannot get the tension to let go. It's not much good if I can't change blades.
HELP-I need a manuel

I use alot of Diana Thompson, Sue Mey and Sheila Landry patterns, plus one from magazines and old issues of creative crafts. I mainly use BB for backers and puzzle box bottoms. We buy 6/4 wood from a sawmill inPA and hubby slices and preps to what ever thickness I want. $1 bins are a great find for...

Beautiful piece! What a wonderful gift. How did you create the file for the floral boarder?

Where do you get the patterns?
Are you using 1/8 solid wood with the poplar center? All 1/8" ?
When you tried BB did you stain different colors?

Have wanted to try these and see a lot selling?...
