    Hi there

    My name is Bob, 29 years old, living in the Netherlands. My dad gave me his old scroll saw (Dremel), and I discovered I can make toys with it. Since the Dremel is not the best scroll saw and the 3,5 year old boy in the house really likes wooden toys I bought a Hegner today. So now I think I officially can be called a scroller.

    My field of interest is toys and puzzles for children. I am busy creating a car based on a Morgan. When it is finished I will post it in the appropriate section.

    If there are any toymakers from my region I would love to hear this since I have some questions and it is always nice to know people who are busy doing the same things.

        The first thing you need to Check is that the upper arm is parallel to the table! Check your manual on how to set up your saw. From the specifications the max cut depth is 2.05 inches so you are at the saw limit. I like the Pegas MGT series. The MGt 5 (11.5 TPI) or the 7 (10.4 TPI)...

        I don't have much doubt that I asked these questions to Denny in an email back when I got my Pegas saw from him. But none of my saved emails were transferred over from the old computer to this new one.

        Since what I use mostly is 3/4-inch pine and 1/4 inch multiply which pegas blade would...

        Great work and patience needed to pull off these smaller toys. You did a fantastic job! I really like them.

        I'm curious to know what type of paints you use if you don't mind sharing the brand name.
